Fallen Angels Fly

Tear in the Desert is being blessed and a living book. The story is truly the story of how millions of people's lives are changing for ever...and with great joy, healing and hope. On November 11th, Veteran's Day, a TEAR IN THE DESERT (TV Special) will be broadcast on EWTN and CATHOLIC TV Boston. This was produced and directed by Christian Peschken (www.christianpeschken.com) and the music was created and performed by Keith Moore. "Fallen Angels Fly" and "Prizes for Peace" were written and performed for the book by Keith in his garage studio.
 
When Our Blessed Mother gave birth to Jesus in basically a barn with animals, it turned out to be an incredible blessing. Poor Mother Mary was asked to do the toughest job ever given in birthing and raising the Son of God.  And she was given very little. As Susi Pittman launches her humble book, Animals in Heaven? Catholics Want to Know! this month, I sense she feels in her mission as I do in mine that we both are in a humble barn of new beginnings. And yet, I believe that God sent us a number of angels to watch over us and protect us. This is all God's work. We are just the pencils in God's hand. Hallelujah!
 
Another gift in the manger has entered my life. I introduce to you W. Keith Moore, a gifted musician and passionate songwriter centered on the Eucharist. God has brought this man into my life in a way that only God can and today we are united for a very special moment in time to serve the Beloved.
 
Keith sent me this e-mail last week. God has brought us together to get the word out. God is Love! We are God's Beloved!
 
I encourage all of you to visit Keith's web site, www.wkeithmoore.com and get to know Keith and his inspired, mystical music! He writes from his soul and in truth. His music is incredible! I listened to his albums SOUL and BELOVED and wept. Most of his songs seem to have been written and married to the book, Tear in the Desert even before he read the book or knew of it.
 
Be blessed and have wonderful times filled with gratitude for God's gift of creation!
Love, joy, peace,
Father Ron +

Lord willing, if all goes well, over the next year
a film will begin production called Tear in the Desert.
After my appearance on "The Journey Home" i received
hundreds of emails from around the world.
In fact, even after 3 months i still feel the
ripples in the pond. But one email was from a man named
Christian Peshkin. Christian is film producer. He had
purchased the rights to a book written by Navy Chaplin Fr.
Ron Moses Camarda called Tear in the Desert.  Fr.
Ron Moses Camarda had spent 9 months in Fallujah in 2004.
This was the most brutal 9 months of the war. Fr. Camarda
had also seen my hour on "The Journey Home". He
sent me the book and the inspiration began. They had been
to my site, listened to my music, and felt confident i was
meant to do the music for the film! WOW! i am humbled and
excited. i have written 10 songs for the project. The plan
at the moment is for the next W. Keith Moore album/CD to be
called "Tear in the Desert". It will be released
before the film is finished. Hopefully, the CD will be out
by April or May. One is never sure how the Lord in His
mercy guides these ships. The soundtrack for the film will
include these songs from the album, plus instrumental
pieces not on the pre-released CD.

 A THANKSGIVING MEAL FOR THE WILDLIFE

bird suetThanksgiving around our house, like many homes, is a swath of delicious foods cooking in the oven, the Macy's Day Parade blaring from the television, voices of family trailing off into different rooms and the table being set with the best china and linen.
 
The air holds a crispness, enough to warrant a fire in the fireplace and the wind blows the remaining leaves from the boney trees with the sound of soft rustlings. What a wonderful time of year to gather together and give thanks for the blessings of faith, home and family!
 
A tradition we have always observed on Thanksgiving Day at our house, is creating a Thanksgiving Meal for the various wildlife neighbors that frequent our property. My daughter and I create Apple Bird Suets for our bird friends. This year we are sharing the tradition with the grandsons.
 
3 Cups of Lard or shortening
1 Cup dried and crumbled whole wheat bread
½ Cup of shelled sunflower seeds
¼ Cup of millet
½ Cup of chopped dried apples
Melt the lard in a saucepan - Mix all other ingredients in a bowl - Allow the lard to cool so it's a little thick - Stir into bowl of other ingredients mixing all together - Form mix into thin cakes to place in your suet feeder.
 
For the raccoons, possums and squirrels, we put out whole peanuts and cracked corn with some fruit and seasonal veggies.
 
We feed our wild neighbors throughout the year, but Thanksgiving is always a special selection of goodies, and the animals seem to know it. I swear our wild neighbors must call their families and invite them over for dinner, because on that day alone, we see more animals than we see regularly through the rest of the year!
 
I would like to encourage you to make it a tradition to remember your extended "family" and set something special out for the wild animal neighbors in your life!


Peace,
~Susi
