Dear friends, family and companions of the Lamb,

Alleluia! Jesus, the Lamb of God, has been raised, and now reigns victorious over sin and death forever! Alleliua!

This glorious Easter, our Risen Savior speaks to our hearts and calls each of us into the joy of an even deeper, more personal relationship with Him. He came so that we “might have Life and have It in abundance” (cf. Jn 10:10) and promises us that “no one who hopes in Him will ever be disappointed” (cf. Rom 10:11). His nail pierced hands, feet and side are constant reminders of the Heavenly Father’s inexhaustible love and mercy for all of His children. Jesus invites us all, as He invited Thomas, “Put your finger here and see My hands, and bring your hand and put it into My side, and do not be unbelieving, but believe” (Jn 20:27)! He also wants to walk through any closed door in our own hearts and for us to experience His Resurrection Power!

The Risen Lamb of God also wants us to experience Him as did the two disciples on the Road to Emmaus, that we might exclaim, “Were not our hearts burning when He spoke to us…and opened the Scriptures to us?” (cf. Lk 24: 30-32). Through daily Heart to heart prayer, Jesus desires to heal our broken hearts, purify us, give us hope, and speak Truth to our hearts. He longs for us to have a deeper, unwavering trust in Him and in the Heavenly Father, Who loves us unconditionally and Who will never abandon us! In these increasingly dark times, let us prayerfully seek a new Pentecost to be strengthened by the Holy Spirit in faith, hope and love. May we profess with conviction with St. Paul that, “…we conquer overwhelmingly through Him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor present things, nor future things, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Rom 8: 37-39).

We hope you will join us for our 25th International Workshop, No Greater Love, from JUNE 7-10th, 2018. The workshop will take place over the beautiful weekend of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary! Together, we want to seek the Lord with single-minded devotion and be strengthened as witnesses of His joy and perfect Love to a world that is hurting and thirsting for Him. May we be all the more empowered to live Jesus’ words, “This is my commandment: Love one another as I love you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends” (Jn 15: 12-13).

We pray that you and your loved ones will receive new springtime graces of Christ’s Resurrection this Easter season and a new outpouring of the Heavenly Father’s Love this Pentecost!

“I live, no longer I, but Christ lives in me; insofar as I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God Who has loved me and given Himself up for me.” (Gal 2:21)

“Jesus said to them again, ‘Peace be with

you. As the Father has sent Me, so I send you.’ And when He had said

this, He breathed on them and said

to them, ‘Receive the

Holy Spirit.’” (Jn 19:21-22)

“Like Mary, you must not be afraid to allow the Holy Spirit to help you become intimate friends of Christ.”

~Pope St. John Paul II

Excerpt from “New Covenant Power” by our Mother Foundress:

Jesus, Who is perfect Love, casts out all fear (cf. 1 Jn 4:18). Love is our weapon, and It has power. Satan does not have this weapon, because satan is fear. Fear is his only weapon, and he uses it a lot. God uses Love. The Holy Spirit is a great Gift of God, because He clothes us in Power, wrapping us in Love. After He has wrapped us in love, He gives us away...Paul said, “The life I live now is not my own” (cf. Gal 2:20). You might be a little bit afraid to give yourself to the Holy Spirit, because He will give you away. It is what the new commandment is all about. “Love one another,” Jesus says, “as I have loved you” (cf. Jn 13:34). Jesus loved us fully in the Spirit. The Holy

Spirit gave Jesus away on the Cross. The Holy Spirit will give Jesus away in each one of us every moment, everyday, if we let Him. Even so, we will never be empty, because He will keep refilling us with His love. He never runs out of love…

We are called to lay down our lives for one another. We are called to love one another as He commanded us. We are called by Jesus Himself through His Words in John 15:9, “Live on in My love.” He is speaking of His Holy Spirit love, His Calvary love, His agape love...The Lamb needs our bodies to continue His redemptive love through obedience and sacrifice. There is only one Mediator, one Intercessor, one Reconciler. It is now in Him, with Him, and through Him, that we are qualified ministers of the New Covenant (cf. 2 Cor 3:6).
