            everything as "grace" because her relationship with Christ is at the
            center of everything. It is a journey of trust and complete surrender
            to God. In truth, it is a demanding journey but a path of unwavering
            faith, making even the most rigorous spiritual commitment feel light.

                   The BFG Handbook follows St. Thérèse de Lisieux's
            teachings, "The Little Way," for understanding the universal truth,
            especially in modern times, between different cultures and the
            creeds of other faiths. The handbook is a presentation of the
            Gospel that is new through its agents, through its methods, and
            through its ardor. It’s core principles teach us that God's way is
            love, guiding us to love others through the Holy Spirit. Unlike
            complex methods, this handbook offers a contemporary
            interpretation of God's teachings, which is not a sophisticated way
            of getting into heaven. It is a modern realization of God's Word,
            paving the way for a demoralized society to discover the truth. St.
            Thérèse's desire to "spend her heaven doing good on earth"
            (Opere Complete, p. 1050) is being miraculously fulfilled. Today,
            she showers the world with roses from heaven.

                   “When I die, I will send down a shower of roses from the
            heavens, I will spend my heaven by doing good on earth.”
            ~ St. Thérèse of Lisieux Prayers

            Third Sign from God: Keys to the Kingdom of Heaven

                   God asked Keith to give Bishop Vann the gold and silver
            keys as the third sign from God. These keys were given to Keith by
            his grandmother, Nhu Pham. They were attached to his
            grandmother's gold cross necklace, but she took the keys off and
