4/27/12 Cult purchases another property ~ Princeton, Illinois
I took a little road trip last Saturday to Princeton, Illinois, after being
contacted by several residents of the area. The cult has purchased a former
nursing home to use as a retreat center, as well as other things. The
location is ideal for them. It’s quite remote and they’ve already dug around
the perimeter of the property so I’d watch for the black gates/fences to be
installed in the near future.
Here’s the article from the local paper: http://www.bcrnews.
com/2012/04/23/lhtbm-comes-to-princeton/aj3djru/.
From a special source (thanks!):
The property sits outside of Princeton, Illinois, off of Route 6. The property is
about 20+/- acres. The physical address is 16827 1410 North Avenue,
Princeton, Illinois.
The primary structure is a former nursing home facility which had a bed
capacity of ~140 residents. The building is two stories and is stated to be
57,757 square feet. There also is a two story single-family residence on the
property. The facility recently closed, with the last resident moving out ~June
2011. The property has been passed along to different health care
companies over the last several years. It's an older building so it probably
couldn't compete with more modern healthcare facilities for nursing and
elderly care that have recently been established in the area.
Here is the Google maps satellite link: http://g.co/maps/3v22e. You can see
how secluded and remote it is.
The odd part of this property is that it sits outside of town on a country road
(not typical of a nursing home), and for those who don't know where it is, it is
hard to find it. This is exactly what the cult wants so it’s a perfect place for
them.
Stay tuned for additional follow-up.

NBC5 Chicago was at the meeting March 12 but didn't air their blurb until
March 30 due to conflicts. It was worth the wait - they did an amazing job.
Special thanks to Mary Ann Ahern who has covered the cult for years and

See the following links for information on the Monday, March 12, 2012,
meeting in Wicker Park. The cult has purchased the old St. Paul Church and
the neighborhood is extremely upset about it.

Of course, the cult represented themselves as part of the Catholic Church –
NOT SO!!! Then Dick Vogt tried to read a letter they forced my sister to sign
in 2005; this letter was going to “discredit” me, stated Vogt. Yeah, right!
Anyway, Vogt was booed loudly and wasn’t allowed to read the letter. I do
have a copy of it however, and it’s in my book.
NBC5 in Chicago got some great footage and will do a story on this meeting
in the near future. Below are pictures taken March 12, 2012.
Kyo, you coward: Where were you and Lenny Monday night?

8/10/11 Family Meeting re: LHTBM
Thanks to everyone who attended the God Willing showing. We had a
great crowd ~ much larger than I expected. Special thanks to Mindframe
Theaters for giving us the theater that morning – high fives, indeed!!!
Please continue to patronize them.
Several families requested a family discussion re: LHTBM so that will be held
on Saturday, Aug. 27, 2011, from 1 – 2:30 p.m. The discussion will be at the
Church of the Resurrection in Dubuque. I’m not sure yet if it will be in the
social space or the upper room, so check back here or email me. Please
spread the word to ex-members and/or anyone who has family members or
friends in this cult.
Please mark your calendars and save the date.
Thanks~

4/24/11 Happy Easter
On this day – the holiest of all in Christianity – I wish everyone a happy and
blessed Easter. Please remember those families that are broken because of
this cult (The Love Holy Trinity Blessed Mission). This is the sixth Easter
without our Juanita and I know it is just as long for several other families. It is
for them as much as my niece that I do this.
I called LHTBM’s non-communication center (773.745.0011) on Juanita’s
birthday (April 18). Again, as always, I heard: “God’s blessings. You have
reached The Love Holy Trinity Blessed Mission. If you'd like to leave a
message please do so after the tone and someone will get back to you as
soon as possible. May God bless you.” For the record, no, they never DO
get back to you.
This marked the sixth birthday Juanita's family has been denied access to
her. I should clarify that family members in the cult can and do, of course,
see her. However, the majority of us – as well as her friends – are not
allowed to see her or talk to her. I'm acutely aware this is her choice but
again, her choices are manipulated. (That’s the politically correct way of
saying she’s brainwashed.) This is basic Cult 101 and there is nothing
significantly different with this cult than with other cults.
My message to Juanita is that I love her and hope she thinks of her Mom
and Dad, as they're the ones who brought her into this wonderful world.
Contrary to the cult's teaching and preaching, earthly families DO matter -
they ARE important. It's unconscionable that Joanne and Jim can't talk to
their daughter. Always, always, there's this nonsense from Marilyn Vogt that
"if Joanne would have a change of heart." WTF? Those freaks don't know
what's in Joanne's heart nor does she need to prove anything to them.
What is my greatest issue with this cult, aside from the lack of
communication issue? It is that it’s contrary to the core Christian belief that
we are saved by grace through faith in Christ Jesus and that scares me for
my niece and anyone else who has been led astray.
Kyo: This is far from over. Meet with me for five minutes. Any time. Any day.
You don’t have the guts, do you? Same goes for the Vogts. Bring it.
Donna
4/18/11 Happy Birthday, Juanita
Today is Juanita’s birthday. I hope she has a wonderful day and deep within,
senses the need/desire to contact her Mom and Dad. This is the process,
after all, that God created. I know the cult is all about alienating oneself from
one’s earthly family, but if you look at it logically – as one should – it’s not at
all the way God planned it. Think about it. Pure and simple. Oh, that’s right.
Kyo knows better than God. NOT.
Kyo: This is far from over. Meet with me for five minutes. Any time. Any day.

2/14/11 Justice – Finally – Maybe – Hopefully!
A Catholic Church official in Philadelphia has been charged with failing to
protect kids. It’s about time. It’s about freakin’ time we start nailing these
bastards. (Monsignor) William Lynn was not accused of molesting children
but of endangering them. He put two known pedophiles in posts where they
had contact with youngsters; at least two boys were sexually assaulted by
these “priests.” See http://religion.blogs.cnn.com/2011/02/10/three-
philadelphia-priests-teacher-charged-with-sexually-abusing-boys/?
iref=allsearch for the full story. I’ll be watching this case very closely; Hanus:
you know why. So does Cardinal George in Chicago. Priests carry a sense
of credibility to many (certainly not to me!!!); it is abuse of that credibility that
is unconscionable.
Donna
01/22/11 Regret for the things we did can be tempered by time; it is
regret for the things we did not do that is inconsolable.
~Sidney J. Harris
I love this quote and apply it to all areas of my life. If I see a wrong, is there
something I can do? With regard to this cult – about which so much is VERY
seriously wrong – there is much that can be done. Let your parish priest
know you won’t tolerate having cult members on the altar. Let them know
you won’t accept cult members in positions of leadership in the church. Oh
yeah. It’s there. Hanus knows it. Are you going to tolerate it? I would hope
not.
On a different note, another Christmas has come and gone and still, so
many families are separated from their loved ones because of this insidious
cult. It has been well over five years since my non-cult family members have
seen my niece, Juanita. My sister, Joanne, had a birthday this month and of
course, not a word from her daughter. Many other families are in the same
boat; the Spielman family is not alone.
Kyo baby: this is far from over. I’d love to meet with you any time, any place.
Call me: 563.650.4716…
Marilyn and Dick: Happy 2011.
Donna
(3/18/10) Cowardice, continued…
Hmmmm… The Catholic Church is still having problems with the sex abuse
scandal. When will it end? WILL it end? The Church has continued to hide
wrongdoing and not be forthcoming with such things. Brazil… Ireland…
Germany… In my opinion, the same is true of the Church re: this cult. These
members should have been excommunicated long ago but due to the
cowardice of the Church, they have not. There are priests still involved and
the Bishop of Dubuque knows it but does nothing. But that’s the way of the
Church, isn’t it? They turn their backs on things or sweep them under the
rug – then they don’t exist…how very sick of them. How very cowardly of
them. I cannot imagine being a part of the Catholic Church knowing the
deceit it perpetrates. Am I a believer? Oh, my, yes! But I pray to God, the
one true God, not some priest, not some pope, and certainly not Kyo baby. I
am saved by the life and death of Christ Jesus, period.
Speaking of cowardice, I know of no one more cowardly than Kyo. She was
afraid to show up at the Belvidere hearings and in fact, was afraid to show
up at many other events. Sure, Dick Vogt said the reason was she was
being persecuted but we know better. That’s a cop-out; that’s another way of
saying she doesn’t have the guts to be seen and take a stand. That’s why
the cult’s retreats are hidden, etc. (well, they think they are). Anyone proud
of his or her faith simply could not be privy to attending a retreat or meeting
in a “secret” location. Indeed, this cult is all about that. I could go on and
one, but that’s for my book. Very simply, if you can’t put what you’ve done or
where you’ve gone on the front page of a paper, you shouldn’t be doing it or
going there.
That my sister and brother-in-law have stolen my niece from her family – and
also destroyed other families along the way – is simply unconscionable.
They, too, are cowards. Marilyn Vogt was not raised that way, but sadly, it is
how she lives today. See below how Marilyn calls my work number to see if I
will be out of the office. C'mon. Cowardice. Pure and utter cowardice!!!
My primary concern remains: LHTBM is contrary to the core Christian belief
that we are saved by grace through faith in Christ Jesus. Salvation is not
about how many rosaries we do or do not say, nor is it about the ritual of
saying certain prayers 12 times daily.
Kyo: My message for you and your cultic followers remains the same: this is
far from over.
I promise to do a better job of updating this page and thank all of you for
your e-mails.

(2/16/10) “Patience has its limits. Take it too far, and it’s cowardice.”
Amen! When I saw this quote today, I immediately thought of the Catholic
Church. I believe the bishop et al are waiting patiently for the cult members
to leave the cult and rejoin the Catholic Church. Nonsense. It’s not going to
happen. Their allegiance is to Kyo, not God, and certainly not the Catholic
Church. But the bishop has taken the easy way out; it’s much simpler to
proclaim a need for patience that it is to act on cult members’ defiance.
These cult members should be excommunicated for ignoring the bishop’s
warning. Instead, they’re given positions of authority – imagine that! It’s
sheer and utter cowardice on the bishop’s part. Action from him is long
overdue. But then, if we look at the history of the Catholic Church, well…
Totally different subject: I was thinking of one of my favorite songs today:
Indiana Wants Me. Hmmmmmm…Kyo? Jan? Dick? Anybody?
