August

The Mystical Mind Training program (MMT) is an advanced mind-training multimedia program for those desiring to undo the ego completely. The entire program is on the internet and makes use of Awakening Mind resources, a Course in Miracles, and cutting edge technology to provide an enormous amount of songs, music videos, movie clips, as well as audio and video dalogues and discourses taken directly from retreats and gatherings around the world. Each participant is assigned to a mentor, and has opportunities to connect with one or more mind-training partners who are dedicated to this process. Multimedia, writings, assignments, and forums for discussion are woven together in a curriculum designed to heighten metaphysical understanding and transfer the training to everything that has been believed, without exception.
The MMT team is coming together at the Lighthouse in Fruitland, Utah to focus on the development of the program. The first six months/modules are completed with a large number of participants already underway.

Our desire for a swift and joyful awakening is reflected all around as exciting changes and unceasing miracles continue to carry us gently along the path.

June

The miracles of May have been blooming abundantly and continue to flourish into the month of June here at the Living Miracles Monastery. Volunteers and friends have been flowing in from all over the world to help prepare for a week-long retreat (currently underway) with all 6 Messengers of Peace gathered together in sharing the good news of forgiveness! The Monastery has been transformed into a peaceful oasis and is being used in service for extending the joy we experience in our simple lives of devotion. A new music album, a chapel, a cottage and an outdoor amphitheater (the "love nest") are just a few of the projects that have come to fruition over the past several weeks. We are so grateful to be able to join in the miracle with you!

In addition, the brand new Living Miracles Center in Salt Lake City, Utah has been opened for a series of gatherings throughout the months of June and July. A weekend retreat at the Monastery (June 18-20) and a trip to Vancouver, Canada for an evening gathering (June 23) and a weekend retreat (June 25-27) round out the exciting events for this month!

After a month-long devotional in Mallorca, Spain and some time in the United States, David and Helena have met with Jenny in Sweden and are hosting a weekend retreat in Väddö, Stockholm.
