“My beloved children, Heaven joins in the laughter and in the joy, in the planning, in the doing, in the sharing, in the giving, and especially in the caring. You are but instruments of The Father, but your joy in this task, in this service, is truly one to behold, for you see, We, too, walked the path of the human way, and We walked in service to God in Our day. Ours was not as yours. Ours was a more quiet way, but yet We, too, had to pray for constant Direction, for constant Love. We had to cling to The Divine Above.

I, Saint Joseph, bless each child here and those who participate in the Hill of Hope, for you see, the Hill of Hope is somewhat like the Crucifixion was one day: opening the Doors of Heaven; of course, in a different way.

You do not see the Magnitude of the Hill being accomplished in God’s Time, God’s Way. And as it was in the days of the walking of the path to the Hill of Calvary for The Son, the Hill of Hope is being done in a similar way; of course, this time the suffering is not total physical, the suffering is comparable and parallel to the work, the tasks to be done. So, you see, My children, as the Hill has been described by Heaven as the Star of Bethlehem was, it can also be a parallel to the Stations of the Way, to the Cross on which He hung, the opening of the way, the lighting of the way, the service that has to be done.

I bless you with God’s Love and I bless you in thanksgiving, for you see, it is proper to thank children when they work in love like thee. So be it.”
