Father Property Appeal

...and Urgent Need

Dear child of our Heavenly Father,

In this phase of our living our Consecration to Her, She has led us, the community of the Sons and Daughters of the Blessed Virgin, to an increase in devotion to Our Father via a consecration to Him as The Father of all Mankind. She is calling all of Her children at this time, as all are Her children, to a global return to the Father as the fulfillment of the Triumph of Her Immaculate Heart and the ushering in of the Era of Peace.

Great joy filled our hearts when Mother Mary announced at Her apparitions in Emittsburgh regarding our Heavenly Father "I have obtained that He is now with you in a new way", fulfilling the Father's own words to Barbara Centilli, "I am coming to you in a new way." This new and fuller awareness of experiencing our Heavenly Father personally and intimately is going to grow and grow until "the veil will be lifted."

How can we avail ourselves to this "new experience of the Father?" He gives us many ways. Here are some primary ones.

1. "In the silence of our heart"
Which necessarily requires the act of learning how to be still, and listening to God who dwells within us by grace.  Matthew Kelly, another chosen mouthpiece of the Father, has a lot to say on this type of prayer and how it's possible for every person. He says often "You can learn more in an hour of silence than you can in a year from books," and, "Noise is the mouthpiece of the world. Silence is the mouthpiece of God.  It is in the classroom of silence that God bestows his wisdom on men and women."

2. To seek out this relationship with Him which will be new to many of us. Praying the Father Consecration Chaplet and Consecrating oneself to The Father of all Mankind.  Personal prayer time with the Eternal Father.

3. A meeting place for the reunion of His children with their Father
He mentions to Barbara 2 types of Chapels (see reference below)
* 1 large one, like a Basilica for large groups of people
* smaller chapels for various smaller communities to those who are inspired to do so,  Barbara Centilli herself will head one and we will too.

This inspiration began back in 2004 when we first read the books (Seeing with the eyes of the soul) and made the Consecration to God Our Father as a community here at SDBV. Since then we have been uniting more and more deeply as a community in a more spiritual way than physical through the power of Mother Mary's intercession. For over ten years now we have been tried by fire in inconceivable ways and measures that would scandalize anyone who has not been given a share in the Cross of Christ-this is no boast- it testifies to the power of Consecration to Mary as lived by St. Louis de Montfort under our spiritual head and founder Br. Mariamartin de la Cruz, to the authenticity of our Charism, and to the ongoing sanctification of the co-founders as they continue to give their steadfast fiat.

Through our total self-gift to Her, although we are as yet a small community, our Blessed Mother gains souls to Total Consecration to Her, and now also the spreading of Consecration to our Heavenly Father consequentially, because it is a work that She Herself instigated and is leading Her children to globally, confirmed first in the Barbara messages and then by Our Lady of Emmitsburg, both American private revelations.  Private revelation is an authentic expression of God's Word and one of the ways He reveals Himself and His will to us.  As Our Lord taught Vassula Ryden (Jn 16 : 12-13): Jesus says: "I still have many things to say to you but they would be too much for you now; but when the Spirit of Truth comes He will lead you to the complete Truth ..." It is a mistake to speak of an end to Revelation and treat it as a deposit of sentences. God is active and alive and will continue to show Himself through the Holy Spirit, never stopping in doing so. When one says in Latin, "complere", it means that Christ is the full, complete revelation of God; and not that He will stop revealing Himself to mankind. The Holy Bible is the narrative testimony of Jesus Christ. It is NOT God's last word.

Some of the exterior expressions of our devotion to Our Father is that our web site now includes pages to Our Father where there is various devotional information available, links and history of Consecration to God the Father as well as images to print, a music CD with new hymns, and Consecration chaplets given away free to all requests.  The graces are there, definitely! And we want everyone to experience them! Of course! Jesus came and died so we could be reunited to our Heavenly Father...now we need only return to Him and come home again.

We are now accepting donations to obtain land and begin to develop and inhabit the small Father Chapel Place (as specified by the Father in the Barbara messages).  It is a meager establishment b/c the Father only wants His creations on it, (natural materials only), but this last 10 years has prepared us for that and the next 2 will prepare us even more. One of the most powerful confirmations that God desired this for us was when one of the members began to see it in his minds eye even before having read of it or having knowledge of it (you can imagine the awe and amazement at this first reading) and then our Founder confirming that the aspects and details of Barbara's visions of these future communities is in accord with what his spirit sees for us and where She is leading us.  Isn't it appropriate that the "Sons and Daughters of the Blessed Virgin" would be chosen to give the Father His chapel and worship Him in imitation of Mary as perfectly as possible, unworthy though we are?

Perhaps you yourself even feel attracted to the idea.  Well, there won't be any place to go to experience it unless it actually exists. Perhaps, sadly, it will have to happen organically as a consequence of catastrophic events.  But I am certain that our Father would love to come to us now at this Holy Place before that day and eagerly longs for it because after all, "He's now with us in a new way"

Please give what you can and try to find others to give too. Pray and offer your daily sufferings because on this sacred place- the Father will dwell and His children will know Him as He is and His will will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.  We do not know Him as He is yet.  We are filled with fear and trembling. But these new graces will give us the ability to experience Him as the Pure Love and ultimate fulfillment that He is because He made us for Himself and He has decided, and Mary has obtained it.  (It won't be like glorification but as close as possible while still on earth!) Where else could anyone possibly want to be?

Above is an explanation of what our vision and goal is and which of course we want as soon as possible.  Our most immediate need though is an RV and more benefactors who can give on a monthly basis. Of course if you can give even a one time donation or on a semi-regular basis, that would help too. The truth is, we need as much as we can get. Our benefactor base is always fluctuating and right now it does not even meet our most basic needs. The RV is to live in and to use as a vehicle (since we have neither a home nor a vehicle), while we raise the money to build and then build what we need for our full monastic life. And of course we need the property to live and build on as well, but if we don’t get that right away we can still survive, but not without the RV and more benefactors.

Excerpt from “Seeing with the Eyes of the Soul”...Private Revelation from God the Father to Barbara Rose Centilli. The Father’s words are bolded.

April 5, 1997:

Dearest, Sweetest Father:

I am seeing a little wooden chapel. And the Tree of Life keeps coming up. And I felt you saying," Build the Church and I will come." ...

Peace, daughter. Let Me remain with you now as I explain My Wishes. Please write and do not edit what I speak.

The Church you see is Mine. It is simple and plain, as I wish it. It is made only from My Creation, not man's. In this way, it is My children's tribute to Me. Yes, there is a Tree. The Tree of Life which I want built into the walls of the Church, growing heavenward, towards Me. This will be a deeply, holy place. In this Church I want My children to gather, consecrating themselves to Me. Those that maintain My Church will live on the grounds which I will provide. Again, all is of My creation, not of man's. I WANT TO TEACH MY CHILDREN THAT I HAVE PROVIDED ALL FOR THEM AND THAT IT IS ONLY IN CREATING THEIR OWN CREATION THAT THEY FALL INTO PERIL. It distances them from Me. There will be a fount of Holy Water out of which My children will be submerged and anointed in the Waters of Mercy and Salvation. I will wash them clean. The Tree that is attached to this Church will be watered from this fountain. Only My pure, fresh, uncontaminated water can be used for this fountain. A spring will appear on this property for this purpose. It is a pool that I speak. Now the biggest surprise: I will come Myself when My children have done their Father's Will in this regard.

All may be consecrated to Me where they are; but it will please Me to have those children who listen to the call, come and consecrate themselves on this sacred ground. Some of My chosen ones will stay to help and support this community. Your purpose is to stay and tend this special Church. Others will be chosen to travel and give witness to the graces and blessings I will bestow on those that respond to My call.

From book 3 Ch. 7&8 He also states that there will 2 different types of churches, small ones like a chapel for small communities and one large one which He called a shrine for large amounts of people to go to.
