            surrendered his most cherished possessions. This transformative
            moment in Keith's life was fully realized when he offered the five
            gifts, serving as a powerful testament to his complete surrender to
            the life-changing power of faith and the presence of God.

                   During his public talk on Marian Day, Keith presented the
            gold cross to Bishop Vann, recognizing this gesture as a significant
            part of God's plan. He understood that this act was instrumental in
            preparing him to unite the faithful in the mission to restore the truth.

            no institution of the Church can avoid this supreme duty: to
            proclaim Christ to all peoples.” ~ Pope John Paul II

            significant step by bringing together Christian faith leaders from
            Orange County to launch the BFG Ministry at Christ Cathedral. This
            initiative set the stage in their mission to unite the faithful and
