about
us
Welcome!
Our
Mission of Faith: This
web site is presented in the spirit of the Roman Catholic tradition
and is faithful to the Holy Father, Pope Benedict XVI. At Immaculate
Heartworks, it is our hope that all who practice the Catholic faith
may find inspirational and informative material to help develop
or continue to strengthen, love and devotion to Our Blessed Mother
- the Immaculate Mother of God - and mother of us ALL. As our Universal
Mother welcomes all her children, we wish to welcome all visitors;
Catholics and non-Catholics alike.
For anyone who would like to learn more about a particular subject
mentioned on this site, especially those who are less familiar with
the Catholic faith, please do not hesitate to send us your questions.
We are happy to assist you in whatever way we can. And we welcome
your feedback. Please browse our site and sign our guest
book. See what other guests say about the site by viewing our
feedback page.
Our
Mission of Charity: St.
Therese, the little Flower, teaches us that no little act of charity
or sacrifice for the Glory of God is ever too small. With this
in mind, Immaculate Heartworks (IHW), a not-for-profit group was
created to do whatever part it could, great and small, to work and
act in this same spirit of charity, to benefit those in need of
charity. In addition to St. Theresa's influence, we are greatly
inspired by Pope St. Pius X's Prayer to St.
Joseph 'The Worker' (view
prayer).
All
proceeds from our products, services,
and donations are given to our charities!
This is possible because of volunteer contributors. And because
we rely mainly on word of mouth to spread the news about our mission,
not on expensive advertising. Everyone involved with our organization
donates their time and talent to help us be successful.
Much
of our focus to date has been in support of communities who have
suffered tremendous loss as a result of war, such as in Bosnia,
in the former Yugoslavia. Our funds have helped support families
(and children orphaned by war) in need of food, and other basic
necessities in addition to helping them rebuild a church. IHW has
also become a sponsor for the Daughters of Mary, Queen Immaculate
of Haiti who support an orphanage and are working to provide a clean
water supply. However, since we believe charity begins at home,
those in need within our U.S. communities also benefit. Immaculate
Heartworks distributes proceeds as particular needs arise.
Our
Name. Immaculate
Heartworks was chosen because of our affinity to Our Blessed Mother.
And in recognition of her apparitions at Fatima, Portugal when she
gave us 'God's Peace Plan' for the world, disclosing God's wishes
that all His children become Consecrated to
the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Therefore, it is also our
intent to provide information on our site as well as, links to other
sites which promote and work to disseminate Our Lady's requests
- at Fatima, Medjugorje, and other apparition sites where Our Holy
Mother has repeatedly asked for this consecration. Because the victory
which 'Our Lady of the Rosary' spoke of at Fatima, will be brought
by Mary. Pope John Paul II said in Crossing the Threshold of
Hope, "Christ will conquer through her, because he wants
the Church's victories now and in the future to be linked to her."
Dedication. Our
site is dedicated to Our Blessed Mother! It was her call which
led us to this work. We sincerely wish to thank her for the many
blessings and graces she obtains for us from God, that we may continue
to support those in need. |
