            creeds of other faiths. The handbook is a presentation of the
            Gospel that is new through its ardor, through its methods, and
            through its expression. Its 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 aspiration to "spend her heaven doing good on earth"
            (Opere Complete, p. 1050) is wonderfully fulfilled through this work.
            Today, her spiritual influence continues to bless the world as she
            symbolically showers us with roses from heaven.

            two keys his grandmother, Nhu Pham, had given him, marking the
            third divine sign. The other key was given to Archbishop Jose H.
            Gomez of Los Angeles in 2017, symbolizing God’s promise that
            both dioceses would unite to ignite a movement for the New
            Evangelization. These two keys were attached to the gold cross
            necklace his grandmother had worn for over thirty years. During a
            critical moment in her life, when she became ill and could no longer
            speak, she removed the keys from her gold cross necklace and
            entrusted them to Keith, who made a promise he would use them to
            open the doors to heaven and build up the Kingdom of God.

                   Although these keys held no monetary value, Keith
            understood their profound sentimental significance. They were a
