Dear Friends, My dear People of God,
What a marvelous day Our Blessed Lady of Divine
God does indeed bless his people! He chooses anyone of
us who are willing to make ourselves unselfishly available and unreservedly willing
to suffer the labors of His Precious Divine Call. In essence, the focal point of His invitation
to serve all His People is to present himself as Lord and Savior. His love is
for and to all men and women. He does this for His wandering and suffering people,
for those who still walk the way of pilgrims in their journey of earthly Exodus. He does so, especially with
His tender Divine Compassion to the sick, the abused, the wounded, the hurting,
and the broken.
What a day, May 9, 1976, of grace that was for me and for the people
whom God had planned for me to surrender all my strength, all my love! In Loving
Him first and above all things and persons, I blindly accepted and unreservedly
surrendered to all that would happen to me from that moment. I would only have
to trust as I always had in my lifetime His Plan in His mystery of Love and Divine Mercy to me and to His people
– to His
Moreover, and most essentially, God through His
My personal sessions and association with and to the
Holy Father, Pope John Paul, was also very significant to me. It took place
four times. The first opportunity was in St. Lucia, West Indies, when I had the
opportunity by Archbishop Kelvin Felix who invited me in a ten day preparation
of his people for the oncoming
visitation of Pope John Paul II, in 1987, and three times afterwards with Pope
John Paul himself, Rome, Italy.
I shall never forget these moments where and when he
sincerely expressed his tender,
compassionate, sincere interest and affirmation to me and to the work I was
committed. I will never forget his strong command and his advisable commission
to serve the church in seriousness and responsibility. His words as he
forcefully stuck his finger into my heart area:
“Never, Never compromise the Gospel of Christ., I bless you
and your mission to the Church. Thank You! Thank You for serving the Church.”

Today, May 9, 2007, God and His holy Mother answered me
and the members of the Apostolate to find a new place for serving the people.
It is in the lovely, majestic French architecture
WHY ?
Well, with all respect to our modern world
of supposedly sophisticated development,
but due to monetary interests and business concerns, the present new management,
and after our 16 years of serving the
public at the Sturbridge Host Conference Center, is requesting an exorbitant
monetary financial increase charge for their rental spaces. The financial raise
for their large rental hall would be $5,500.00 , and $2,500.00 dollars for the
their smaller facilities. This cost would destroy our base operation to the
services for the sick and the needy here in our area of the Diocese of
Through prayer and worrisome search, the
church officials at
This marvelous Notre Dame locale and Church setting are what so many
people for years have been asking us to find and to return to rather than to
conduct our services in secular buildings. This church setting is most adequate
in space. It’s capacity is 1400. It is
so beautiful in its French architecture, that just looking at it can offer the
hope of safety and the opportunity to
receive God’s loving and merciful healing.
Thank God with us at the Apostolate administration
that this gracious God-given opportunity will continue in helping to serve the
people with the dignity of a holy Church setting -devoutly, respectfully,
attentively.
The locale is very easy to find:
It is, in fact not far distant from the
present site of Sturbridge Host Inn and

willing – has been booked today at Notre Dame Administration Office in

In conclusion, this day, May 9, 2007,
was for us the happy business of the day. I am sure you can imagine this joy in
our Apostolate concerns -- May 9, 2008
! God once again did not abandon our need and our willingness to continue to
love and to serve until the Lord calls us home. When we ( I ) are ( am ) no longer able, God will call us (me).
The time of services
will follow the weekly Sunday Notre Dame
parish masses. The sessions for our Healing Apostolate hours there for those
listed Sunday sessions will be from 1:00 p.m. to approximately 4:00 p.m.
The programs at the new locale

Sunday Eucharist
(2) The
Evangelization Message of the Gospel
(3) The

the Prayer and the Spoken Gospel’s Inspirational
Message.
As we conclude in 2007 with Sturbridge associates, we do
offer utmost gratitude to all of them who have in the past been most beneficial
agents, individual helping persons, and anyone else there serving as their representatives who in turn have been of
gracious assistance. Thank you immensely!
With hopeful new ministry to God and to His needy,
wounded people, I bless you and I remain,
Sincerely
yours,
Reverend
Father Ralph A. DiOrio +
