Yes, my friends, I see a great need to expose the lie you have been fed by people you wouldn't believe capable of such things as I have witnessed. People that have us believing that they are somehow so well favored by God that when They pray for us, God listens better than when We pray ourselves. They pray for world peace, an end to poverty etc. How's That worked out?

What do you understand 'poor' means as in Poor Clares? Does the term 'millionaire' enter your mind? How many years could say, ten (just to pick a number) sisters live on the cash they have in the bank? How long could You live on say, half a million for yourself?

We had a list of benefactors who helped support us. It was their money that allowed us to have three new cars for transportation, which we used daily for community errands as well as for our personal trips, often carried out while wearing our 'play clothes', as we called our civilian attire. We shed our habits because we really didn't want to be recognized at some of the places we'd go. We just didn't like being bothered by the seculars while we were out having a good time. We played incognito as often as possible. Uh, mommy, what is 'Enclosure?'

Do we could care about our benefactors? You decide, ok? Consider this: We moved to a new house across town after Rome shut us down, and our expenses decreased as well as our numbers . We had the proceeds from the sale of 3900, nearly five million, plus the millions already in our accounts. And what was included in our last farewell letter? Something about how we are closed now, don't want any visitors, but we'd really appreciate it if you would send us some money to help us out... Did you get that letter? What, Dear Reader did you think about us wanting even more money from you, even after we shut the doors on you at 3900?

By the way, when you donated to us in Delray, was it to help your local Monastery, where you knew the sisters, where you went to Mass? Did you expect your money to be used for their continuation as 'Your' sisters? Does it matter that the money you gave us for a new building, years ago, was hoarded, not spent on a new building? How do you feel to discover that so many religious people are battling each other for their share of 'your' Money?
