The Three Theological Virtures

Faith is the theological virtue by which we believe in God and believe all that he has said and revealed to us, and that Holy Church proposes for our belief, because he is truth itself. "Faith means believing the incredible, or it is no virtue at all." ~GK Chesterton

Hope is the theological virtue by which we desire the kingdom of heaven and eternal life as our happiness, placing our trust in Christ's promises and relying not on our own strength, but on the help of the grace of the Holy Spirit. "Hope means hoping when things are hopeless, or it is no virtue at all." ~GK Chesterton

Charity is the theological virtue by which we love God above all things for his own sake, and our neighbor as ourselves for the love of God.
"Charity means pardoning what is unpardonable, or it is no virtue at all." ~GK Chesterton

Support the Good Priests of Miles Christi!





Dear Friend of Miles Christi,

As you may know Miles Christi is in the process of raising funds to build a Religious and Family Center in South Lyon, MI. We have already signed the contract with the builders and the construction of the first phase will start in a few days.

This is a great endeavor that we can accomplish only with your support and help. We need the generous support of all the friends of Miles Christi. The Miles Christi Religious and Family Center will provide a chapel for daily Mass and Eucharistic Adoration, meeting rooms, office space for our day to day activities and will be also a place for the formation of future Priests.

One concrete way in which you can help is to purchase raffle tickets that are currently being sent to you. You can win a week-long vacation to Hilton Head, SC, a Gateway Laptop computer or an iPod Touch (click here). But not only may you be able to win some of these great prizes, but by purchasing raffle tickets you will be helping a worthy cause.

The drawing of this raffle will be on June 26, 2011, during the Miles Christi Conference of Study and Prayer, at The Holiday Inn, Livonia, MI. You need not be present to win.

If you have already been able to support us purchasing tickets for this raffle, we truly thank you, and invite you to please forward this email to your friends, inviting them to purchase tickets.

How to buy tickets:

You can call us at (248) 596-9677, you can respond to this email requesting tickets, or you can purchase raffle tickets online by clicking here. We will make sure to include your stub in the raffle drawing.

Thank you so much for supporting the work of Miles Christi in America! The Lord will no doubt reward your generosity.

We count on your prayers for the success of our campaign and remember that we keep all of the friends of Miles Christi in our prayers.

May God bless you!

In Christ,

The Priests and Brothers of Miles Christi
