Le Royaume, the Kingdom Blessed of St. Joan and St. Thérèse, is my single point of reference in life. This Kingdom is my final form, purpose, and meaning in life. I relate to the world from her, and through her, I interpret the world. She is the gift of life from God, Our Father in Heaven.

Le Royaume is the Kingdom of God I was instructed to seek by the Immaculate Virgin Mary, the Mother of God. "But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things shall be yours as well." ~ Matthew 6:33. Our Lady transformed my life through grace, revealing Truth to me, which is her Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, and fostered in me a heart of goodwill through her motherly love for me and her own Immaculate Heart. She reached out to me, and I responded.

"Just before the Great Event, something softened me up to Catholicism. It was the prayer of the Hail Mary. This prayer affected me profoundly because the words' Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death' struck me. I had never heard that prayer before the Monday night we studied it, at least not that I remember… My heart warmed to the idea that sinners could pray to the Mother of God for help. 

~ (From my book, Journey to Christendom - The Freedom Dance.)

Though I came to believe through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, it was not without my celestial sister's assistance and loving patronage, St. Thérèse of Lisieux.
