"Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.  Jn my Father’s house are many mansions:  if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.  And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also." St. John 14:11-13
