this statue's been in my nightmares.

It won't bite you.

It just reminds me of things I'd like to forget.

I have something for you.

I wish I could say I've read them all.

Seems as soon as I'm reading one, two more come out.

Do you really have as little faith as the

characters in your books?

Maybe less.

An atheist and a pastor.

We're quite the pair aren't we?

- Do you still write every day?

- Yeah, it's actually the only thing I inherited from him.

Me too.

For the past few Christmases and birthdays we've missed.

Please, I want you to have this.

- For continued success with the writing.

- You didn't have to do this.

It's been too long, brother.

It's good to see you.

Last few months we've had ongoing issues with vandals.

We installed those around the compound,

more than anything just to act as a deterrent.

- Catch any bad guys?

- We caught something.

- Anna has a very vivid imagination.

- Come, Joseph, come.

- What is this?

- Each camera takes one picture per minute,

unless the motion sensor is triggered and it rolls video.

This is from last week.

There.

Look!

What?

A demon.

- That's fog.

- My brother he ... he lacks faith.

I don't lack faith. I have faith.

I have faith in what makes rational sense.

God, and demons, and the devil don't.

I am going to pray for you.

- George Washington.

- What about him?

Have you ever met him?

Have you ever met anyone who's ever met him?

No. No pictures, nothing. Only text.

Yet you still believe in George Washington.

God is a myth, Samuel. Neither you nor

Washington is gonna convince me otherwise.

David died at 11:11.

The time on his death certificate.

Not a number you easily forget.

I've been seeing that number a lot lately.

Hello?

I got your number from the hospital,

I hope that's okay.

The hospital gave you my number?

Well, I didn't say they gave me the number.

I said that I got from the hospital.

You know, I waited outside your hotel

for 30 minutes./ i

Yeah, I'm sorry.

I ... I forgot.

- I had a little bit of an emergency.

- An emergency, on top of the accident?

- You're having quite the week.

- I'm having quite a year.

- I'm in Spain.

- What?

Yeah, I'm in Barcelona./ i

- You're serious?

- Yes, my brother and my father live here.

- My father moved here when I was a little kid.

- I'm so happy you're with your family, Joseph.

I wanna ask you a question.

You ever see a number reappearing in your life

over and over again?

- Such as?

- 11:
11.

- Well. Did you make a wish?

- A wish?

Yeah. You know, when you look up and see

a clock that says 11:11 and you make a wish.

- No, why?

- An old wives tale, it's lucky I think.

Why are you asking me this?

Why am I back here? Why am I staying when

everything in my being is telling me to run?/ i

I remember the day we moved into this house

and how much I hated it./ i

How much I hated my father for moving us here./ i

How I resented him.

Not much has changed.

I still feel like an outsider.

Even amongst my own family./ i

Anna?

Anna?

Diary of Anne. / i

I'm afraid I am not at good at writing as you.

- I am very sorry. I was just curious.

- It's okay.

- So you're a writer.

- It's a gospel, according to me.

I don't read Spanish, but it looks like a diary.

A record of my faith.

You know, if I kept a record of my faith,

it would be a book with no pages.

I keep a diary.

I know. But this is mine.

Something your father encouraged of his congregation.

Sounds like my father.

Well, I'm sorry again.

I will leave you to your comfort.

The Spirit Guardians/ i

the messengers/ i

The next door/ i

The 11:
11 activation is to open the doorway of the 11:11.

This doorway is a transition zone between

two very different spirals of evolution.

Those who have been activated by messengers can view

both worlds, sometimes seeing ... the "Midwayers".

Other times they manifest by hallucinations,

trying to deliver a message.

Joseph

Samuel?

Samuel?

Samuel!?

David?

Anna!

They are here.

Hello?

Hello!?

Hello?

Samuel?

Samuel!

Breathe. Breathe.

Anna!

Come on. Let's get you up.

Come on.

What happened?

I don't know.

I was just ...

I was just praying.

Has this ever happened to you before?

No.

I'm hallucinating, I don't know what's wrong

with me, but I'm seeing things.

You drink?

Jesus drink.

- What is this place?

- This is our chapel.

This isn't a chapel.

You don't need a cathedral to worship the lord.

The dedication of my flock is not measured

by the size of our church.

When our congregation grows, it will be

because of the message.

- Not the comfort of the pews.

- Let's get you back into the chair.

Come on. Give me your arms.

Here we go!

I'm gonna go try and get some rest.

Do you still blame me?

What happened to mom was not your fault.

Joseph, come to my service tomorrow.

You know, I really don't do cathedrals.

- Or basement chapels.

- Religion is flawed, I'll give you that.

But I'm doing my part, to bring

it back to the true message.

So was it worth it?

You know, following dad's footsteps,

devoting your life to a myth?

Just because you've lost your faith,

does not mean I've lost mine.

I'll see you in the morning.

You have one unheard message.

Message left at 11:11 p.m.

I think it's 11:
11 where you are,

didn't wanna say anyting, just .../ i

Is this your new book?

I am not Kathy Bates ...

but I will go misery on you if you

are not up in two seconds.

- What are you doing in my room, Anna?

- I am your date to the service.

To church service?

I don't do church.

Your brother say you say that.

That's why I'm here, to restore your faith.

Yes. Well you can restore my faith on Sunday.

Today is Thursday.

Get dressed!

Sacrifice.

Something the bible talks a lot about.

Genesis 22.

God tells Abraham to sacrifice his only son, Isaac,

as a testament to his faith.

Abraham loved God so much

he took his child to a mountain with the intent to slay him.

For three days he journeyed to Moriah,

knowing that when he arrived

he would have to kill his own flesh and blood.

God too, made the ultimate sacrifice.

He gave his only begotten son,

Jesus Christ, to die for our sins.

In life, we all must make sacrifices.

Not as extreme as Jesus or Abraham,

but still important.

Imagine if Christ had not died on the cross.

Then our sins would not be absolved.

We make sacrifices every day, right?

Today, the sacrifice is the warmth

and comfort of our chapel.

I am a sinner.

I wish I could say I were divine,

but the truth is, my life is riddled with shortcomings.

Today in religion, we spend so much time asking for

forgiveness, so much time obsessing on our faults,

that we forget to live.

We worshippers look down on sinners.

All the while, pushing newcomers away from the church,

not bringing them closer together.

Damning mistakes we ourselves make.

To sin is human. Jesus Christ sacrificed his

own life so that we may sin.

It was his final gift to man.

What will your sacrifice to God be?
