From The Letter File

We get many letters and phone calls from various visitors to Sylvan Springs. Many times, they seem to be frustrated because they cannot find the "right" words to describe their feelings nor can they adequately describe what they may have witnessed while touring the grounds or reflecting in prayer in one of the chapels.

This letter comes to us from a well-grounded young man who decided to surprise his fiancee with a day at Sylvan Springs on November 10. Rome City has become a place of great inspiration for this young couple as they attempt to lay the spiritual foundation of their future lives together. There is no doubt that Our Lady is reaching out to them, as She is to ALL of Her children. The only difference is that this couple openly recognizes this fact and wants to do all they can to help. They are obviously without the financial resources to help secure these grounds, but they have something money cannot provide. They have the KNOWLEDGE that was born out of a willingness to BELIEVE. They have faithfully answered Our Lady's call and they have both received what it was She wanted to give them.

Our Lady wants us all to have this knowledge so that they may fully live in Her Son's lifegiving LIGHT. One of the greatest gifts you could ever ask for is waiting for you in Rome City. Come, take what you are given, and help to spread the message of OLA this Christmas Season.
