| It
is my intention in this section to keep you informed and learning
about the Casa and how to make the most of your visit: for
example, education through articles, thoughts, stories upon
returning from the trips, and announcements.
BONAPETIT RESTAURANT
As
of April 2006 there is a new restaurant in Abadiania! And an
excellent one. Owned by Ricardo and Vilma, Mediums and
volunteers at the Casa de Dom Inacio. The place is impeccably clean,
filled with love and heart warming intentions.
The food is DELICIOUS! Ricardo and Vilma showered us with Eggplant Gratin, Pasta
Bolognesa, the freshest, crisp salads, Fish and meat Dishes. You should taste
the soups and desserts!!!
The owners’ enthusiasm and generosity are so welcoming, almost overwhelming. A project right from their hearts. Like they opened the
doors of their home and invited us to their own living room! Heavenly,
and worth visiting as many times as you can.
Directions:
Walk along Avenida Frontal as if you were leaving town. As soon as you pass the
block where the Church and the School are, turn right. Their telephone number
is 3343 2020
Life after the Casa. I
sense there is the need for “Casa de Dom Inacio”
support groups. In order to ease the “after trip”
longing and to introduce newcomers to the energy of the Casa
de Dom Inacio, I am creating an opportunity to gather once
a month:
CASA NIGHTS in New York City.
First Wednesday every month, 6-8PM. You are invited
to join me and a group of people, the first Wednesday of every
month in New York City.
The intention: to fulfill the longing to connect with the
Casa and with others who, like us, feel deeply grateful for
our experiences there.
Through the most important of the Casa tools -Prayer and Meditation,
we will invoke the presence and the blessings of the Spirit
of the Casa.
I chose Wednesdays because the Casa is open on Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday each week. I do feel the difference in
the quality of my meditation during those days.
Please, contact me if you are planning to attend.

I am available to do presentations
on Medium Joao’s work.

JOHN OF GOD IN GERMANY - SEPTEMBER OF 2006.
For information in the German Language see
Earth Oasis and Friends of the Casa for updates on John of God’s traveling schedule.
The town of Abadiania and the Casa have been the source of transformation and inspiration for us all. I am delighted to share the work of Kim Lee, one of my September 2005 group members, whose CD speaks to our longing and love for the Casa.
Kim’s website bears the name of his CD, Unconditional Love.
Kim will donate a percentage of the proceeds of the CD to the Casa de Dom Inacio.
Kim is due to perform at John of God Atlanta event in April. The following link will take you directly to "Abadiania" a song where Kim tells of his experiences during his trip: listen to the song here
The Children of Abadiania.
The town of Abadiania where the
Casa is located has a small population. Most of the people
are very poor. The children are precious. We see them
playing on the street. They are in my heart, as much as
Medium Joao and the Casa de Dom Inacio.
I usually collect and bring clothes, shoes and toys and
bring them, each trip. Perhaps you feel moved to do so:
a.- If you travel as part of my group, you can save some
space in your luggage for those items. We will bring them
to the children during the weekend.
b.- If you travel by yourself, the Mediums assisting at
the Casa will tell you what to do with your donations.
c.- I will be happy to bring any items or donations you
wish to make when I travel. Check Trip

DISABLED AND NEED HELP?
I am only happy to announce
and support
a project that is making Casa more accessible
and affordable to disabled people.
Visit www.heavenshelp.com
and share the
information.
The Casa Prayers in English. The Sunday Service is
held in the Medium’s Room at the Casa. Led by Arturo,
one of the Mediums. We all take turns to read the Casa Prayers,
sing, share. The room filled with God’s light and
love.
The experience heightens the sense of community as we get
to know and share with guests staying at other Inns.

The crystals sold at the Casa
have been blessed” (infused with a very high frequency)
by the Healing Spirits. The Spirit World dispense their
healings through both, crystals and water because of their
highly sensitive nature.
During our trip we will have an opportunity to visit other
places that sell crystals, however, the ones from the Casa
feel “alive”. This is easily confirmed with
a pendulum, or simply holding one during your meditation
session. Sometimes I fall asleep holding a crystal in my
hand and wake up feeling the pulsations (you may experience
the same while holding one of your herbs’ container!).
The Entities instruct us to regularly (every 2-3 weeks)
clean our crystals in sea salt water and re-charge them
in the mid-day sun. While in Abadiania, it is best to clean
them at the Sacred Waterfall. The Waterfall cleans and charges
your crystals at the same time yet I still like to charge
mine in the Sun.
A Note on Silence. Silence
and attention are required so we do not remain distracted
and disconnected. Scattered energy reduces our receptivity
and dispels the efforts of the Healing Spirits. Signs reminding
us to stay silent can be found all over the Casa grounds.
It is in Silence that we find God.
