Miracles happen at Proyecto Santo Nino in Anapra Mexico

Miracle #1: There were once 3 Sisters and they lived in a house; it is called the Mother House in Cincinnati, OH. They belong to the Sisters of Charity, a Catholic Order of Nuns.

The 1st nun is a doctor, her name is Sister Janet. The 2nd nun is a massage therapist, her name is Sister Carol. The 3rd nun is a nurse, her name is Sister Peggy. They came to El Paso many years ago to set up a health clinic for mothers and children in the Colonias, an area of poverty in the east part of the desert outside of El Paso. As stories go, they eventually were lead to Reiki and received their training. They implemented Reiki and massage in the clinic. Amazing healing stories started to happen.

Miracle #2: They continue running the clinic, but they were, also, guided to Anapra, Mexico across the border from El Paso. There, with the help of a priest, they started a clinic for disabled children.

This is an area of extreme poverty with people living in make shift houses built out of wooden pallets. There is no sanitation or running water for most of the area. The disabled children started crawling out of the wood works from every where to come to the 1 room clinic for help. The tiny clinic was overflowing with children and had to be expanded. A new addition thru donations, allowed a large area to be built in straw bale construction. Children from all over come for Reiki treatments, Thai massage, aroma therapy and hydrotherapy. The clinic has become a center of support to the mothers, who care for the children and also provide food, medications, pampers and clothing for the children.





Miracle #3: Their vision of having a clinic to help children was unfolding into something much larger than they could have imagined.




Volunteers come from all over to stay for a period of time with the Sisters and to help in the clinic, as well as, provide home visits. While they are volunteering they also get their Reiki training. The clinic is a place where miracles truly happen! The children responded so well to Reiki and the other treatments that stories have spread across the surrounding borders:
a) A retarded 16 year old girl was found outside living in a boxed area living like a caged animal. All she did was scream and yell.
Over the years of Reiki, she is now able to demonstrate calm behavior, has learned to take care of her toilet needs and is able to feed herself. Her mother died last year leaving her alone and the loving hands of the Sisters embraced her and became her custodians. Two of the widowed Reiki mothers share the duties of housing and caring for her.











b) A baby would cry all night, every night and had seizures. In the hospital, the doctor told the mother that her baby needed Reiki. The mother couldn't afford the cost of treatments but she knew Reiki would help her baby. The baby also suffered from constipation. Nothing would give the baby relief. The mother eventually found the clinic and took her Reiki training in the 2008 class. She started doing Reiki on her baby and now the baby sleeps through the night, doesn't cry, isn't constipated anymore and the seizures have subsided by 90%.
c) Many changes have occurred over time with Reiki: children who once were isolated, now have socialization skills and are able to play with others; spasticity and contractures of limbs are greatly reduced; fussy babies and children exhibit emotional changes and stability in feelings; and children who never have walked are learning to take beginners steps.
d) Mothers who were closed, exhibited low self esteem and were incredibly shy are now open, able to display their strengths and share their inherent gifts that have been revealed.






Miracle #4: Faith swells in the hearts of these Sisters:

There was a real need to find a home for the nuns in El Paso as they needed to have a closer access to the clinic via Juarez. Reiki was sent to the situation and another vision was manifested when land and money were gifted. The architect donated the drawings and the builder came forth to offer a new construction type of living green technology. Over time, Reiki cleared the property, land, and building and in October, 2005 the Sisters had their wonderful, blessed home and convent in an incredible setting looking towards the mountains of Texas and New Mexico.






Miracle #5: The inquiring mothers could see their children responding to this unknown treatment called Reiki and eventually reached out with wishes for treatments to also be given to them. The time came when they also wanted to learn Reiki.

Sister Carol and I set out with a plan. In 2007 the 1st Reiki class was taught in the clinic with 5 mothers and 1 father. There is a benefactor in Denver who donated the class fees for them to receive their training. In exchange for this gift, the mothers have to commit to giving Reiki to the children and mothers for a year. As more children came, more mothers wanted to be a part of the clinic and also to learn Reiki. In June 2008, we had the 2nd Reiki class which included 11 new mothers and 3 who audited the class. Now, the clinic is full of Reiki mothers and lots of children receiving Reiki. The clinic is now run and supported by this large, grateful group of mothers, who never had a support system for themselves or for their children before meeting these 3 Sisters.












The Visions continue and Miracles lay waiting to be manifested from Spirit:

1) Educational needs. The children never have been allowed in school.

2) Splinting and orthotics. None of the children have been evaluated for these devices.

3) Adaptive equipment. Many things are improvised, like the 5 gallon buckets used for assistive seating and feeding stations.











4) Medications are costly. The clinic tries to cover the costs of the seizure meds - approx. $500/month

Walk in the footsteps of these Sisters and experience their vision, their dream filled with faith, prayers and Reiki that have led to a full manifestation of the Proyecto Santo Nino They are always open to donations, as this is the only way of support to the clinic.

As a Reiki Master, teaching there is a refreshing blessing for me. The classes are translated, and I have that expanded experience of coordinating all the teachings to be easily translated. I wish to thank Eva Dominguez and Jose Robles for their skills of translation and support to this project.



There is a long awaited anticipation and an incredible sense of gratitude from the mothers, as they enter into the class. They sit and listen from their hearts and do not have the ongoing shatter of their minds. They all have incredible visions of Saints, Jesus and other great Beings during the Reiki class while giving Reiki to each other. During the 1st and 2nd initiation, one woman experienced me putting seeds into her folded hands. "What are these seeds you are giving me, she asked?" I told her," these are the seeds of Reiki and they will bear friut in your life." Later, Sister Peggy told us that The Saint of Farming in Spain and Mexico is Saint Isidro. The lady who had the experience of receiving seeds is named Isidra (feminine for Isidro).See below the photo of Isidra and her 26 year old son.











When the mothers receive their certificates at the end of class, they jump up and down, cry and hold each other. They gaze at the certificates filled with honor, as they have never been given anything like this gift before. The Gift of Reiki lasts a lifetime and these women, mothers and care givers can experience the miracle of life, like they never have known before. I drive back across the border to El Paso filled with the gratefulness of being the bearer of this gift of Reiki. My life is blessed, and I am filled with the Miracles of Proyecto Santo Nino.
