Around 110 friends joined us on Sunday, May 31, 2025, the feast of the Queenship of Our Lady, at the Great Ball Room of The Ranch Events Center in Anaheim. We came together for our Fifth Biennial Event, where we spent five hours together from 4 to 9 pm.
Two hours were reserved for the talks. The first was our traditional Introduction and Overview of TIA’s activity in the past two years since the Event of 2023, delivered by Mr. Patrick Odou, who described the online meetings of the TIA with its South American friends and contingencies, as well as new works and projects, a pilgrimage to Carmel to visit California’s oldest statue Our Lady of Bethlehem, and the young men’s group Knights of Elias.
Mr. Atila Sinke Guimarães gave a riveting talk, presenting little considered aspects of the Internet and AI world, which seem to be the devil mocking the promises God made to man in the terrestrial Paradise. It was titled “AI Domination? Global Depression? World War III?” The second talk was by Dr. Marian Horvat, who spoke on “The Prophecies of La Salette & The Secret of Mary.” She brought the necessary spiritual hope for the audience.
The evening was marked by a warm convivium and lively conversation. Wine and delicious hors d’oeuvres were served, and guests enjoyed a new addition to the refreshments, a dessert table with lovely petit fours.
What follows are some photos of our Fifth Biennial Event.
