We live in an age where communication techniques improve at a very fast pace, but at the same time millions of human beings feel the anguish of loneliness and isolation. Why?
Human beings have a need for relationships and communication as persons, just as fish have a need to swim, and birds have a need to fly.
The FAMILY is the essential and basic relationship of all humanity.
The FAMILY is the first and fundamental school of personal intercommunications.
WHAT is happening within a great majority of families today? The
scholars say, "A great majority of personal problems have their
origin in families with non-existing or deficient intercommunications
within the family unit."
DRUG ABUSE, alcoholism, suicide and delinquency are obvious symptoms of
the lack of relationship and intercommunication within the family
structure.
We search outside for what we need inside. This is a useless
effort. The basic personal intercommunication must start IN the family
structure as such and not outside of it. Millions of human beings search
outside their families because they do not find it inside.
F.I.R.E.S. is born with this purpose: To
serve each family, giving them the opportunity to make real, in their
own home, the experiencing of intercommunications, and of a deep,
intimate and loving relationship in the Lord.
F.I.R.E.S. firmly believes that this
relationship and personal intercommunication within the members of each
family is in accordance with GOD'S PLAN.
F.I.R.E.S. wants every family to be a FIRE
of GOD. To experience family intercommunications to build relationships
and to enjoy a living interpersonal relationship in the Lord.
This is the purpose of GOD'S FIRES!
F.I.R.E.S. stands for:

Marriage and Family, though a fundamental human reality from the beginning of creation, it STILL only in it's early stage of development: almost in it's infancy!
- Marriage and Family
(inseparable) are part of CREATION...and creation is a continuing
process in which we participate. Creation itself - the created
universe - is still only the raw material from which the feature is
continually being fashioned by the Creator and His creatures, and
the end of this world (our part of creation) is a long way off.
- Marriage and the Family have
such a POTENTIAL for future development that in the next millennium
the New Community of Families will have such a creative, innovative
role in society and in religion that "Family Energy" will
bring about a higher form of civilization than the world will have
seen since the beginning of modern times.
- The beginning of human
experience for the vast majority of mankind throughout history has
always begun with the experience of a CHILD'S RELATIONSHIP with it's
mothers and father, and of their RELATIONSHIP with each other.
- Marriage, the union of man
and woman in a family relationship, is part of man's very nature; it
comes from the CREATOR and is part of God's Plan: carried out by the
Creator since the beginning of humanity.
Similarly there must be in the FAMILY the relationship between parents and children and between brothers and sisters and with each other.
It is in these relationships that the energy (human thermonuclear energy) of the marriage and of the family are SEEN; where the potential is released according to the capacity of the partners.
In the same true marriage relationship, which is open to every couple,
the partners have the energy to enable each other to express their
innermost nature as human beings, to relate to themselves and to others,
and to develop their potential as human beings.
In a union such as this the children are born into a loving environment
and from their first moment of existence they begin to know life as the
experience of being loved, nurtured and valued in a way that rarely, if
ever, can be equaled by any but the children's own parents.
It is marriage and marriage alone, which has this unique capacity and
energy for the truly human development of the married couple and their
children. This energy that is part of the very nature of marriage is
largely a latent energy that is suppressed, frustrated or inoperative
because of a number of circumstances, the fault of either or both of the
partners; social, economic and cultural pressures; an environment
hostile or indifferent to marriage and family life development.
THIS ENERGY MUST BE RELEASED FROM WITHIN EACH OF US. THIS ENERGY IS THE
FOUNDATION UPON WHICH THE FAMILY UNIT WILL GROW...IT IS THE FOUNDATION
OF GOD'S PLAN. IF WE RELEASE THE ENERGY WITHIN EACH OF US THE FAMILY
CANNOT DIE!!
