Father Speaks

A Father's Plea

It costs only our lives to open the interior sanctuary of our souls to the indwelling presence of God. We die that He live, we decrease that He increase, we lose ourselves that He be found. Indeed, only then do we come into our true identity as a people created in His image and likeness. Only then does the purpose and meaning of life transcend the limits imposed by time and space.

That we are destined to share in God's eternity compels our commitment to life in a world that is passing away.

Your support for the repair and restoration of St. Stanislaus Kostka Church, the Sanctuary of the Divine Mercy insures a holy space where you and others can encounter the living God.  The restoration of this sacred space mirrors our desire that God live in us and that we become, more and more, His ambassadors of Mercy.   It is a commitment to life and the means to genuine metanoia, that is, the transformation from darkness to light, from evil to good, from death to life.
