</SPAN>Good morning friends, this is Bob.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>(Group greetings.)<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>It’s good
to be here with you once again.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I
have asked Daniel to let me bring you to centeredness. Let us begin by relaxing;
oftentimes you think of relaxing as a physical activity, but that of course is
only the “outer.”<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Relaxing is
letting go of stress; you are much like new dough that is being kneaded; you
knead the dough and fold it into a loaf and set it aside, let the grains of
dough inside the loaf relax, so that there is no tension inside the loaf that
would cause hard places.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>This
allows the yeast to work in all the tissues of the loaf evenly and easily.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN><o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial">And so you are much like a loaf of dough that has
been kneaded and folded into a loaf.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>The tensions and stresses of the day are with you.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Now is the time to set them aside and to
relax, to let the inner stress and tensions mellow out, mellow away, to flow, to
be released, so that your inner vibrancy is even throughout your whole being,
and that the “yeast of revelation” that has been inseminated in you so long ago,
would be able to pervade and grow evenly, in all parts of your being—your
physical being, your social being, your emotional being, your mind, your body
and your spiritual being.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>You are a
whole being; <B>you are whole</B>—not just one of these parts, but
<B>whole</B>.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>And be at peace;
peace is the resolution of emotional turmoil; peace is the acceptance of
evenness, without agitation, without negative thoughts or feelings.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Peace!<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>This is what Jesus left with us, left
with you, so long ago and it pervades your world and is available to you when
you access it.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Now, let us experience joy; not just glad tidings,
but <B>joy</B>, that inner awareness that “all is well,” all is as it should be,
and that you are now in tune with that joy; you are now in tune with that
evenness—not complacency, no, not at all—but of joy, vibrant good feeling,
expansive gratitude, and ecstatic oneness with your creator.<SPAN

joy!</B><o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

week, and during the weeks that have passed since our last time here.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I have been observing you and watching
and nurturing you when you have been available.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Nurturing you to help you listen, to
help you hear.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I do not know if you
recognized my presence with you—something closely akin to, “Hi, this is
Bob.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Why don’t we go for a cup of
coffee and chat?”<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>That is usually
how it begins, the time when you sit in reverie, time of contemplation, sitting
and not just musing, but sitting in reverie, aware that you are in the presence
of those who you do not see, that Christ Michael and Nebadonia are here with
you.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial">A status report:<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>We are pleased to let you know that the
Denver Group is doing quite well, that members who are here and those who are
not here, who are participating through the transcripts, through the tapes, are
becoming more aware of their communication, their openness to hear us speak with
you, to speak with your Guardian Angel, to hold dialog with these individuals,
these beings.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>These times of
reverie, of consultation, of dialog, are times that allow you to speak with a
dear friend, myself or another Celestial Teacher or your Guardian Angel—time to
reflect on your life and gain the wisdom from your life, asking questions of
your Teacher, your Guardian Angel, and receiving answers, receiving insights,
seeing old hurtful situations in new ways, that give you new perspectives, that
help you rise above those situations—not better than, but more removed; not
aloof, but in greater perspective, broader perspective.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>You can never detach your life from the
experiences you have had, but you can gain greater peace about them through your
insights, through a broader perspective.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>And your Guardian Angel and your Teacher can help you do
that.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial">We are pleased to report also that there are several
of you who are closer to becoming TR’s, Receiver/Transmitters.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>This is a slow and cautious process, for
when you begin to hear, there is always self-doubt, and that is appropriate, and
this will usually transform itself into humble acceptance of the
responsibilities of being an objective, non-ego oriented TR.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>And whether it is just speaking with
your Guardian Angel or Teacher, one-on-one by yourself, for days, weeks, months,
years without sharing that capability with someone else, that is fine.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>And if you get to the point where you
want to share these sources of wisdom and insights with others, that can be
developed as well.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial">The Denver Teaching Mission group’s mission is
two-fold:<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>One is to establish an
ongoing Teaching Mission group that meets regularly—and that can mean once a
week or once a month; the second purpose is to begin training individuals who
can become TR’s.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>We anticipate that
there will be TR’s in every major city in Colorado.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>We are curious to know whether you have
speculated on why this new group was started, other than that there was a need
for it here.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Any thoughts, besides
serving individuals to hear a larger perspective of the universe, as it relates
to your life?<SPAN style="mso-tab-count: 1">

</SPAN>Good morning Bob.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>(Bob:<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Good morning!)<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I’ve always been thrilled that the TR
groups have started here; in the way that I have viewed it or conceptualized it
is that it’s hooking Denver into a larger, so to speak, circuit of information
coming into Denver.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I know that
there are many individuals here who are very aware and are on a very spiritual
path, but that there has also been a lot of diversity in the messages being
relayed, and whether the individuals are involved directly or with this group,
or just in their own spiritual path, I have always felt that we are being
encircuited more firmly to a more planetary communication.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Bob:<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>That is correct.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>That is one
of many answers; developing a sense of world community, and that the Teaching
Mission is not just for Denver, not just for the cities of the United States,
but for all individuals all over the world, and that this will be manifest in
many ways, called different things in different cities and countries, known by
individuals, by different teachers, different languages.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Eventually, there will come an
awakening, an awareness, that there are similarities between groups, whether it
is in Bulgaria or whether it is in Buffalo, New York, and that there is
something “afoot” on the planet.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>And when this awareness develops, then there will also develop slowly, a
consciousness of global community, of spiritual individuals working with
celestial teachers and angels, and the Celestial Management of the planet, in
this Local Universe; a consciousness that there is “<B>correcting</B>”
happening, it is <B>intentional</B>, it is <B>purposeful</B>, it has a
<B>goal</B>, it has an <B>end point</B> that is helpful to each individual.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>So, you will continue to see a
freshness, newness, in groups as they develop, of being flexible and open, a
curiosity of whom else is out there.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>In this large city, this metropolitan area, there are other groups that
have met and are meeting, who have many similarities.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN><o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial"> <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial">One of the reasons that we wish you to continue
to—not necessarily advertise, but “market” the Teaching Mission subtly—is that
you will find other groups that are similar.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>It is a way of becoming aware.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>When you examine the philosophies, goals
and objectives, purposes and intentions of the various groups, you will find
commonality.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Surely there will be
differences, but that will not be a problem.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial"> <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Let us examine the last two or three lessons that I
have given you:<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>They were
meditations, they were practices for going deep within yourself to the even
playing field of consciousness, consciousness of your own being – conscious
awareness of others, “other” consciousness being there with you.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>You recall that we dissolved the sounds,
the sights, the smells, and feelings of what we heard in the “outer” and went
“deep within.”<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>And when you go deep
within, and you do this repeatedly, eventually you will become aware, through
your practiced procedure of inner awareness, that you are not alone.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>You will become aware that there is
“another consciousness” with you.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>Now, this will happen to each one of you, and some of you have
experienced this already.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>You could
simply go, “Huh!” and think about activities of the day and move on.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>But in your new awakening awareness, you
may say, “Oh my! There’s someone here with me!” Feel secure, knowing that you
invoked the brilliant Light of the Creator and all the Creator’s Beings of
Light, you know that this consciousness, this presence that is with you, is of
the Light, and that it is there for you—not only <B>with</B> you but there
<B>for</B> you.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial"> <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Your next questions might include, “Why is this
presence here?” or perhaps, “Who is here with me?”<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>And, having asking a question, a dialog
will begin.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Trust!<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN><B>Trust</B>, dear friends, that you are
safe, that this is safe, sacred ground that you are walking upon, for the
consciousness of Light is always sacred, holy.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>When you say, “Am I alone?” invariably
you will hear, “You are not alone!”<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>Then, asking again, “Who is with me?”<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>“I AM.”<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>For most mortals, that resonant “I AM”
will bring goose bumps to your skin, and an expanded, open light-headedness to
yourself, knowing that you are in the presence of the I AM.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Some of you will retreat, withdraw in
amazement, shocked with heady awe, wondering, was this real?<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Be assured, it is
real!<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial"> <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial">For you who may be over-awed by the presence of the I
AM, there are the messengers there for you, your Guardian Angels who oftentimes
are more easily accessible to you, (only because you are more accepting of
angels and the concept of angels, and the awareness that you have angels who
guide you and protect you and are friendly towards you and who love you, who
nurture you and help you learn your lessons of life.)<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>And so you may want to ask, “Is my
Guardian Angel here?”<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>And you will
hear that soft, sweet, tender voice, “Yes, I am here; I am here for you.”<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>This time, do not withdraw, but engage
in a friendly conversation, as you would a stranger, a stranger you meet in a
store or on the sidewalk, who has an affable face, a friendly presence, a person
who smiles when you look at them eye-to-eye and you say, “Good morning.”<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>And they say “Good morning” back to
you.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>But in this case, you are not
passing; your Guardian angel is here with you.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN><o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

worries?<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Understanding of the
pressures that impinge upon your life, that affect your equilibrium and keep you
from joy from the moments of every day in your life?<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>You have a <B>friend</B> you can consult
with—your Guardian Angel, your Celestial Teacher, Christ Michael and Nebadonia,
or the Creator—<B>always available for you</B>.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>But it takes moments, just as these
moments right now, as we sit here in these chairs in this quiet center, we are
in tender reverie, listening—I’m listening even now—I, Bob, am listening to the
guidance that I receive.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>This is a
multileveled situation—you, your consciousness, listen to me with your ears and
with your inner awareness to your own “inner guidance,” and I in my mind
mechanism, am listening with my Thought Adjuster, the presence within.<SPAN

style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial">The availability of this comfort, this friendship,
this consultation, is available always; we have taught you that.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>It takes only time, presence, and
intention to practice it.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>It is our
hope that when you arise from your meditation, from your dialog, that you will
take this consciousness, this state of being with you.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>This is not a “doing state,” this is a
“state of being,” being in repose, being quiet in your mind.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>You can walk outside, close your eyes
and be there again, being at peace, being in reverie, where wisdom and guidance,
friendship, advice are available, where you can discuss any
subject.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial">For some of you, this is “Church as good as it
gets!”<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Those of you who have been
church-goers, you can probably recall the times, once, twice—if you are
fortunate, many dozens of times—where you’ve gone to this building and been in
this period of repose, of quiet, inner worship, of presence and dialog—but what
you take with you from these meditations is a state of being that you can
practice anywhere.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>You can be fresh
and available, as fresh as spirit is freshly available to you.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>It takes just a moment to enter into
that quiet space within you, eyes open or eyes closed, and be there in
dialog.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>For some of you, it is
living the “OM,”—OMMMMM, moment after moment, wherever you can go, it is
OMMMM—you can be in that state of being.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>Freshness of new, Teaching Mission groups is to be able to teach new
individuals, how to be “in church” within themselves.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>There is no liturgy, there is no
minister, no priest, no one saying, “You should do this” or<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>“You should do that,” no sermonizing—it
is a state of being.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>And if we
taught you nothing else, but to experience this state of being, at any time in
your life, waking or sleeping, meditation or not, this would be one of the most
valuable things you could learn.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>We
would be very pleased with that result!<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">

a “problem”…but one of the developments of the Teaching Mission, which we have
been striving to work with, and find ways of dealing with in a peaceful,
compassionate way, is to work with your groups so that they do not become
“church,” but become “fresh”—fresh venues, fresh formats, fresh plateaus of
experience, of one-on-one with spirit—whether that is spirit within through
practicing Stillness, or the sharing with a celestial teacher or guardian angel
or Melchizedek, or Christ Michael—whomever.<SPAN

</SPAN>(Group:<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Good morning and
welcome.)<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I was the teacher of the
Denver group in 1993 and ’94.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>There
were several of us here working with Mantutia Melchizedek in this region.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I wish to relate that we are very
pleased with the progress of your group.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>I now work in what you would call the Offices of the Regional Manager,
Mantutia, and I am available for teachers throughout this region as an assistant
or as substitute when they need to be away on holiday or to go into
training.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>There was a quiet period
of time after the group disbanded, before this group or the other group in
Loveland began.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>We attempted to
start groups in other cities, but without results, without any roots being put
down deep into the soil of this community.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>We have had great progress—slow as you would count them—but very good,
solid progress, as we would relate them.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">

beginning in near-by cities in the coming months and coming years.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>You can imagine our glee—if you could
put our feelings in that category—our satisfaction with your capability of
having State Teaching Mission Conferences in the future.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>You now have National Conferences, and
you have Regional Conferences, but you can foresee in the not too distant
future, that you will have State Conferences of the Teaching Mission, where you
might meet once a year or three or four times a year.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>You might see us as regional sales and
marketing managers, who are eager to open new store-fronts in each city, to have
our presence known and available, to have merkabas, these spikes of energy,
established in each area, that people can use consciously.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

thanks and praise to our good friend, Rayson, who has been the Master Teacher in
many areas.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Each of his students
have taken on and expressed their own way of coordinating and developing the
lessons in each of their groups, so you will see differences in the

and then we will close with some questions, if you have any.<SPAN

style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>That you should/could/would coordinate
with each other and speak about the Teaching Mission and how it is growing and
how it is developing.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Call some
people—those people whom you have not seen in attendance for a while—and ask
them how they are doing, whether they might attend again, or perhaps this
meeting could be convened in a location more favorable to them, or at a time
that is more favorable.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>The
intention is to assist in the development of other Teaching Mission groups, even
on a temporary basis.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>No, we are
not desperate; we are simply exploring the options and possibilities of making
this convenient.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>As you know, it is
a wonderful adjunct to your life that has become for many of you a primary
ingredient of your life and how you live your life.<SPAN

way to make your group larger is of course, to attract new individuals who are
interested.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>That is not a
smart-aleck answer or a facetious one, but one that is quite pragmatic.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>How you go about that, is of course, a
challenge to you, how to meet people who have a like interest whom you do not
know.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>And because the Teaching
Mission does not proselytize aggressively, it becomes more of a challenge for
you. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

may, as you have in the past, been very forthright about the Teaching Mission
being held at your home.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>You may
wish to put out an invitation for a specific time and date, to any individuals
who may be interested, through that group, of course, coordinating this with
Rayson.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>It is not unusual for
Teaching Mission groups to wither, and the individuals to be scattered like fall
leaves in the wind.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>But you will
find, too, that as these winds blow and scatter the leaves, the leaves also come
together in piles.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>They seem to
have an affinity for each other at odd times and odd places.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>What I’m saying is, let this happen, do
not force it to occur as a group; and if or when this occurs, then be concerned
about your own welfare, your own spiritual nurturance, and find sources that
feed you.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Whether other people meet
at your home is up to them; your primary concern is to grow, to feed and nurture
your own evolving soul.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>You do that
through becoming trustworthy for service, inviting service, and of course,
developing your own innate spiritual capabilities.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>So let this pass, if it is headed in
that direction.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Those people who
are true to the call, to the effort, to the source that feeds them, will want to
reunite and reinitiate what they had before, and they will hold it more dear
than they did before.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Thank you for
your question.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>(Student:<SPAN

</SPAN>Bob, I feel that it would be good to begin attracting people who are not
Urantia Book readers, and I feel it would be good to grow.<SPAN

wording we could use that would best attract some of these people, not here, but

</SPAN>Yes.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Include the words of
“Global Spiritual Management.”<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>Include words of “Purpose in Life,” “Available guidance from within and
from without.”<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>These will insure
that people understand and know that there is “hope” in a fractured world, that
there is truly purpose for life, as an individual and as a nation and as a
world.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>That spiritual assistance is
immediately available, recognizable to the feeling of truth, which the Spirit of
Truth assures you and gives you.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>Where will you find these people?<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>Will you find them in busy schools, corporate offices, on play yards,
boating ramps — no, you will find them where people are questioning their
reality, purpose of life, their life, the fullness of their life, the meaning of
the life that they had and are still having.<SPAN

remember that familiar feeling of <B>all</B>, <B>oneness, grandeur,
community</B>—some who even still see angels, speak to their unseen friends, who
are so real.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>How you approach this

</SPAN>They are the ones we dearly wish to address, as they will have a whole

making moral and ethical decisions to fill their souls with great weight for
survival, who can be in meaningful dedication in the service that they provide
to others—and of course, to themselves—who have their whole lives ahead of them,
who don’t question and hope, but <B>know</B> what they can
do.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
