Pope Benedict XVI recognized it too when he said: Call it another “back to the land” fad or what have you, but something is happening. There’s no need for big organizations to promote it – its just happening. I can’t count the calls I’ve received that begin: “I think God is calling us to homestead.” I can only describe it with that word: a movement. There’s a movement in the hearts of men, especially young fathers. When I see puffs of smoke from little homesteads in the countryside I feel the same – a father has come home to be with his family by living together on the land. When it comes we rejoice, because our father has come home. When the Papacy is vacant the whole Church looks longingly for a puff of smoke from a little chimney – the household of the Church feels lonely without Papa.
