While living in Sugar Land, Rafael developed and designed a new distribution and publishing company, Marianland.com. This is now the largest Roman Catholic Marian Pro-Life resource web site on the Internet. This company distributes and publishes some of the world's finest Catholic and Christian videos, books, music, and church supplies.
Rafael came up with the idea for a Catholic theme park in 1984. Marianland was soon built in the United States.

Upon request from Hollywood film director and actor Kurt James Stefka, Rafael scored the original sound track to Kurt’s movie “Crossroads of the World” few tunes for this movie published on Rafael’s best selling albums 'Music for Peace of Mind'. Recently, Rafael was asked to perform original score again for Mr. Stefka’s new company Story Driven Pictures which produced a video production of the Nutcracker in 2008 for The Reno Dance Company. Rafael’s unique music score was extremely successful in the video production as it juxtaposed splendidly with the music score by Tchaikovsky.
Rafael's hobbies include sailing, tennis, soccer, movies, sports, books, paintings, arts, and music.

The mind of God we believe is cosmic music, the music of strings resonating through 11 dimensional hyperspace. That is the mind of God.
