Overview
Mission
City of God building was renovated to be used as a Spiritual Chapel and apostolic spiritual learning center. It is also being used as a spiritual retreat house and pro-life center. Spiritual books, videos and tapes are also sold on a per order basis and in the gift shop. A new Chapel was built so that the Celebration of the Eucharist can be performed by a Catholic Priest. Permission has been granted by the Bishop of the Scranton Diocese for the use of this Chapel. Mary's Pavillion was erected so as to provide an open amphitheater for day-long and multiple day programs. The adjoining properties were purchased; Divine Mercy Farm to grow foods and raise livestock to provide food for the needy, and the nextdoor residence to house is being planned for future spiritual considerations.Ultimately, the goal is to spread God's Kingdom in the Words of our Lord Jesus Christ through his Divine Mercy for all.
