    Creating Ripples of HopeHopeGiving Today Impacting Tomorrow 2009 Annual Report IS PLEASED TO HONOR THE Alive in Hope Foundation of the Diocese of Brooklyn for excellence in materials used to promote diocesan stewardship AWARDED FOR ITS Total Foundation Effort “God has given each of us the ability to do certain things well.” Romans 12.6-11 11 October 2009 Dallas, Texas Creating Ripples HopeHopeof In 1996 the first gift was made to the Alive in Hope Campaign; a historic event in the life of the Diocese of Brooklyn. That first expression of generosity begot another, and another, leading to the creation of the Alive in Hope Foundation. Eleven years later, $23 million has been distrib- uted in support of the Catholic community in Brooklyn and Queens. One act of love calls forth another, creating ripples of hope for generations to come. Giving Today, Impacting Tomorrow 1 DearDear Dear Friends in Christ, “Do not be afraid of Christ. He takes nothing away, and He gives you everything. When we give ourselves to Him, we receive a hundredfold in return.” Benedict XVI Rooted in deep faith, summoned by hope, and impelled by charity, we join together and sustain the commandment of love. It was clearly love for our Church and its future that led a group of visionaries and caring individuals to form the Alive in Hope Foundation eleven years ago. They recognized that creating a foundation that would gather gifts and grow them over the years would provide for the ministerial needs of our Church. In order to have a sense of the divine and the eternal in your life, you must be a hope-giver to others—not only by how you treat others in your interpersonal transactions but in the way you give your tangible gifts away.

  • The Real Powers Behind President Barack Obama by Karen Hudes
    The Real Powers Behind President Barack Obama By Karen Hudes Tuesday, December 31, 2013 8:02 (Before It's News) From Karen Hudes Facebook page: Barack Obama is truly not the President of the United States. He is not a powerful person at all. Rather, he is a front man for more powerful entities that hide in the shadows. The real power in the world is not the United States, Russia, or even China. It is Rome. The Roman Catholic Church (Vatican) is the single most powerful force in the world. However, the Vatican has been under the control of it’s largest all-male order, the Jesuits. The Jesuits were created in 1534 to serve as the “counter-reformation” — the arm of the Church that would help to fight the Muslims and the Protestant Reformers. However, they fought with espionage. The Jesuits were expelled from at least 83 countries and cities for subversion, espionage, treason, and other such things. Samuel Morse said that the Jesuits were the foot soldiers in the Holy Alliance (Europe and the Vatican) plan to destroy the United States (Congress of Vienna). Marquis Lafayette stated that the Jesuits were behind most of the wars in Europe, and that they would be the ones to take liberty from the United States. The head of the Jesuit Order is Adolfo Nicholas. His title is Superior General of the Jesuits. The use of the rank “general” is because the Jesuits are, in reality, a military organization. Nicholas, as the Jesuit General, is the most powerful man in the world.

  • July 8, 2015 Open Letter from the Haitian-American Community to UN
    July 8, 2015 Open Letter from the Haitian-American Community to UN Secretary-General Ban and U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry on Cholera in Haiti Dear Secretary-General Ban and Secretary Kerry, We are writing as members of the Haitian-American community to express our deep outrage at the United Nations’ failure to take responsibility for the cholera epidemic it brought to Haiti. We are especially troubled by the dismissal of Georges et al v. United Nations et al., a lawsuit brought by cholera victims seeking a just UN response, and the continued refusal by the UN to provide remedies to the victims out of court. The UN should not be permitted to evade accountability on this issue. It is imperative for the U.S. government to ensure the UN complies with its legal obligations to install the water and sanitation infrastructure necessary to control cholera and compensate the victims. Cholera has killed over 8,900 Haitians and sickened over 730,000 since its introduction into Haiti in October 2010. Every week 630 people are infected and seven are killed. We have lost family and friends to cholera, and we live with the threat of losing more of our loved ones. We also continue to fear for our community, as Haitian-Americans visiting family in Haiti are among those who have contracted the disease and died. Our community has also taken on significant financial burdens due to cholera, as we support our relatives’ funeral expenses, health care costs, and school fees for children orphaned by the epidemic. 1 Overwhelming and conclusive evidence—from the U.S.
