The retreat will include the talks and question-and-answer periods. A luncheon will also be offered as an option. Mass will be at nine.

We will focus on regional issues, signs of the times, current events, prophecy, the afterlife, and general spiritual development. But the key will be the inner search: are we seeing with the eyes of Heaven? Nothing is more important than where we stand with God.

Water, salt, and sacramentals will be blessed -- at this time (as we will discuss) when we and our households and families need spiritual protection.

There will also be a discussion of heightened demonic attacks on families, how to ward such off, the role of Confession and the Eucharist, and extensive review of Heaven, hell, and purgatory. So too will we discuss alleged apparitions and prophecy. We will discuss "secrets," current events, and signs of the times.

There will also be a major discussion on prophecy -- particularly as has to do with Florida and the U.S. The discussion will include what to realistically expect, while other parts of the day will focus on personal spiritual healing, deliverance, and personal spiritual development with a focus on the afterlife: what it is, how it is, and how we should strive to get to its highest reaches. Mr. Brown will draw from a work in progress on the afterlife called The Other Side.

The joys of Heaven are difficult to describe, says the author (who has been researching near-death experiences), but in the end is the message that: God is in full control; we are in a place of testing.

Do we know who we really are? Are we preparing for the glory of Heaven?
