"The earth has yielded its harvest;  God,  our God, blesses us.  May God bless us still that the ends of the earth may revere our  God."  

From Psalm 67.

                    Come back to Me with all your heart don't let fear keep us apart. Long have I waited for your coming home to me and living gently our new life.            

Dear Friends and Benefactors,

 

We rely on your gracious generosity
and benevolence to support the goals
of our Community. Without your loyal
help this Community could not survive.
We still have much to do to complete
the building project of the new retreat
center. The center is vital to the Community
in serving those who need to spend time
in solitude, prayer and a respite from today’s
world. Would you please be so kind to help us
in completing this project before the end of
this year?

Do you hear Jesus calling to you to come back to Him? Does the present day world with its politicians, leaders and popular culture shapers who lead us bravely downward freighten you of what next is going to happen ? Currently we are being drawn away from Our God, from Our Catholic Faith, the very basics of what makes us connected to who we are as God's Children.

As we watch the Gospel of Life being trampled, the values of life removed, the family and its moral character torn apart. Sinful displays of dress and abnormal life styles which cause even those prophets of gloom and doom to a quagmire of things never dreamed of to draw souls away from thoughts that are of Heaven.

We stand in need of a heavenly reference point, A GUIDING STAR. The very security of our lives and our souls are at stake. PRAY ! Pray Often. Pray ever more to the Heart of Jesus who loves you. You have the power to win more souls for our Lord. Become an apostle of prayer. Pray with us, pray with the members of "The Blessing Tree" Program. Unite yourself with us and all the members every day as we pray for you, for each other and for those we love.
