+ 1982
In 1982, Franciscan Missionary,
Sister Stephen,
was seeking God's Will
in forty days of prayer and fasting
at Lugar de Paz, a Benedictine House of Prayer in Prescott, Arizona, USA.
During that time, the Lord called her to found an international missionary association of
the New Intercession in the Spirit of Jesus for the Church called
"The Fellowship of the Burning Bush" (FBB).
Since that beginning, the Holy Spirit has led her
to form many missionary intercessors in some 26 nations with abundant good fruits.
In all countries, FBB intercessors serve with deep love and commitment
to the Lord and His Church, especially to our Holy Father,
and with the knowledge and blessing of their Local Ordinaries.
+ 1986
In 1986,
Sister Stephen, Foundress and Moderator of FBB,
officially submitted FBB mission and members, present and future,
to the spiritual authority of our
Holy Father John Paul II
and received his personal, Apostolic Blessing
for God's anointing, guidance, and spiritual protection
in FBB service of intercession for the Church.
+ GLORY TO JESUS FOR THESE SPECIAL FEASTS !!!
