The Plant of Religion!

The marvelous work of the creator made the image and likeliness of Mankind, bonding his existence with the imprinting of religion that is our life’s base. The foundation of any spirituality is religion. It is to have faith in God and living in faith of Him. Our Saints father and mothers in creed of this mystery, shone like crystal by their miraculous work, triumphing by their fight, who are true witness of God finale inheriting the Kingdom of Heaven. We thus venerate them in our Holy Church.

Captives of Love

An absolute heart felt feeling and power, living for the other, denying oneself, a spirit that fills us with happiness, gotten in suffering, and such a great virtue of nature is “love.” Love gives everything; loves as itself; considers others, suffers, aches for others and sacrifices life itself.
