WONDERFUL NEWS from the wife of Brother Knight John Crawley, Krys Crawley.
An update on Life’s Connection:

The Board approved an invitation to bring Life's Connection to St Vincent Pallotti Parish in the offices of the Love Life Library with the contignecy that we train here in Mukwonago and that we secure a volunteer base of 20 women. I am happy to inform you that they are coming in!

A woman named Phyllis has been running the place for 29 years. It is located in the rectory at St Vincent Palloti's on 55th and Wisconsin.

No one really came to the place and in an effort o revitalize and keep great information going they felt the best thing they could do is to become a Life's Connection. The cost for the space is a minimum "donation" to the priests. She really has gotten to be in the space for free.

I was with Bishop Hying last night and shared all of what was happening on a spiritual level as well as all the developments that were dropped on us. He is very happy about LC proceeding to the Love Life Library. He was there about a year ago tryong to come up with ways to revitalize it and feels this is providential. He said this is truly living JPII's evangilization. He would like us though to have an ultrasound machine there (which I didn't) and to also reach out to parish families in the Archdiocese to build an appreciation for vocations and to also promote Ahava Productions which is getting into the hands of families all over CD's and mobile apps on the Catholic Church(it is in it's first production right now). I told him I would work on his directives. And the best part is that there are woman who will proceed with this part of his directive, so I don't have to. Interestingly, he stated that he sees God inspiring many and this is the vehicle that He is using to bring it all together.

The place will have to be updated visually inside to make it warm and welcoming. It's not big, as it is a part of the rectory. If anyone wants to take a look next week Tuesday morning, please let me know. I will plan on meeting there at 11 am. The women from Love Life will come here next Friday to tour Life's Connection.

I hope Life’s Connection remembers that we are here for whatever may be needed in the battle to defend life!
