The Valley of the Olives

Make it the Valley of the Saints

The Idea is for those who want to help The Kurganate but maybe can’t do so in a large way or by providing physical help, to be able to sponsor a tree. Sponsoring a tree means you can give the tree a name, it can be your name, or the name of a favourite Catholic Saint, which I think would be a nice touch as it’s a way to remember the Saints and make the whole place a little more inspired, or pretty much whatever you want as long as it’s not some degenerate or mocking thing. I ultimately have absolute veto power on this, so if there is a problem with a name you pick, I will let you know.

If you wish to sponsor a tree, do the following:

1. Select the tree you want to sponsor from the table below. You can see each tree by clicking on its number which will take you to a recent photograph of it. After pruning, a tree will look relatively “naked” but this is how you get them to produce the most olives. Unpruned trees will look more full and natural. If you prefer to browse through images of the trees to select the one you want, then go to this Tree List

2. Select if you want to sponsor it for 1, 2 or 3 years and find the related cost. Older and bigger trees cost a little more.

3. Send that amount using either PayPal and: [email protected]

or

4. Send that amount using Wise (better alternative as it’s a bank and not as converged as PayPal, so far anyway) and: [email protected]

5. IMPORTANT: Tell me what you want to name the tree in the notes when you make the payment.

6. IMPORTANT II: Tell me what name you want to be made public for your sponsorship. It can be your name, a nickname (same rules as above for this), or if you don’t tell me, then it will be left anonymous.

That’s it.

What you get for sponsoring a tree:

• You get to name it for the duration of your sponsorship (but see rules above).
• I will personally say a Hail Mary for each sponsor at least once a year.
• At least once a year I will attend a Holy Mass for all the sponsors, dedicating it and my time to them.
• If you name the tree after a Catholic Saint I will also say an additional Hail Mary for both you and the Saint at least once a year.

The point here is to help make the Kurganate happen a little faster, make me pray more regularly, and help bring a general sense of increased spiritual and pious attitude to our land and its inhabitants.

I thank all of you who decide to sponsor any trees in advance and promise the funds received will only be used to further the aims of The Kurganate.
