2016 Marian Eucharistic Conference; May 20-22

Thank you for your prayers for our work in this Year of Mercy, especially from May 19-24.

Friday May 20 - Take off! We are on our way to attend a Marian/Divine Mercy Conf. http://www.thedivinemercy.org/events/event.php?id=1009 being held at Ave Maria University May 20-22. Praise God He opened the doors for the arrangements to be made. Our Jubilee Edition of our cookbook/prayer book, icons, statues, will be sold during the Conf. and the 3 ft. statue of Mary, Ark of The New Covenant and our icon will be on the center stage. Steven Ray is very excited to have the sacred art near him as he will be speaking about Mary as Ark of The New Covenant. Enjoy the photos of the statue making her way through security and her seat on the plane! Not included is the photos of the ticketing agent with tears streaming down her face, the first person to notice and react to the statue.

Conference begins with Steve Ray, dynamic Catholic convert who continues to lead over 140 pilgrimages to the Holy Land. He referred to the statue several times during his talk.

May 21 - Privileged to meet a champion ambassador for Christ, John Hunt, National Director, Legatus received from us, the icon that was blessed Thursday evening at the Pittsburgh Chapter Legatus meeting. Together we shared the missions of our organizations. We were all in agreement that God is doing magnificent work in the church and He has future plans to unfold.

May 22, 2016 - Closing Mass with Fr. Chris Alar MIC. What a powerhouse!! Met with Kathleen Beckman at her book signing...God's definitely opening more doors!
