Ministry update
Dear
Friends,
Greetings
from Maine- land of lakes, oceans,
mountains, and living foods! Fields are bursting
with ripening harvests, and farmers' markets
are bustling with healthy activity. This is the life
here in Maine! As summer winds down and slides
into fall, everyone is savoring the sunny, warm,
and recently HOT remnants of the season.
Speaking fondly of the joys of summer, we are happy
to report that our sixth annual LIVE FOOD
PICNIC was
a memorable success. It was a
picture-perfect evening
at Fort Halifax Park where eleven of us gathered to
feast on living food, fresh air, friendly sun and
water,
and most of all healthy fellowship. Live salads,
soups,
desserts, fruit, and snacks were enjoyed by all.
Topping
our feast of living food was live guitar music
performed
by one of our attendees. We thank those of you who
joined us for this festive celebration of healthy
living!
Our HANDS-ON HEALTH meeting this Thursday will
feature the award-winning film, 'InGREEDients.'
This
video presentation promises to educate, entertain,
enlighten,
and energize the viewer concerning the importance of
diet
and bring into question: what are you eating?
If you have
never examined your eating habits, food choices, and
and personal lifestyle, this film will compel you to
do so.
For the sake of your better health, we encourage you
to
see this film. It could revolutionize your life.
Learn more
about this week's HANDS-ON HEALTH
meeting here.
Later this week we are hosting a special event: ATLAS
AWARENESS DAY with Christine Bemish, RN and
AtlasPROFilax®
Method Specialist. This event offers
an in-depth education into the importance of a
properly
aligned atlas vertebra as well as a natural solution
to
correct misalignment of this strategically-located
bone.
Many physical, emotional, and mental problems have
been rectified by realignment of the atlas vertebra.
Learn more about this special event here.
This
month's featured article, 'The Spiritual
Roots of Health'
continues with Part 2 of an investigation into the
hidden
cause(s) of most physical, emotional, and mental
problems.
This writing will expose the excesses that
hinder us in
the journey toward ultimate health. While
addressing this
topic might be considered controversial, it is
important to
shed light on an area that deserves attention. Health
is
more than meets the eye. It involves the welfare of
the
whole man: body, soul, and spirit. Therefore I
encourage
you to take time to read, meditate, and ponder 'The
Spiritual Roots of Health- Part 2' as a
personal challenge
to press onward and upward toward a higher level of
health.
Please consider the news links provided further along
in this
newsletter. Due to the growing number of important
health
reports that come across my desk, I have reformated
this
news section for your reference and convenience.
Please
investigate these links for the sake of your own well
being.
Become informed and when possible, become proactive!
In spite of the troublous times in which we live,
those of us
at The Living Way continue to rejoice in the goodness
of
our Heavenly Father to keep us safe and healthy. We
enjoy
many blessings, most of which are simple but
meaningful.
We have a beautiful garden with an overwhelming
harvest
of tomatoes, tomatillos, squash, beans, beets, and
greens.
The warm, sunny days are bringing the crops to
maturity
very quickly. A recent inspection of our concord
grape
vines reveals a record-breaking harvest. As one might
expect, we run to keep up with the incoming food.
What
we do not or can not eat fresh is dehydrated or
frozen for
future use. What we store now will be happily enjoyed
during the coming winter months. Take a peek at some
of our garden harvest and read updates to my garden
log here.
In
closing, we welcome those who are new to our mailing
list and thank each of you who supports this
ministry. Your
walk into ultimate health is important to us.
Therefore, do
not sell yourself short. Live each day as though your
life
depends upon your actions, for it does. The law of
the
harvest is real: we reap what we sow. Too many are
sick
and dying. Don't be one of them. Make healthier
choices for
yourself so that you can experience heavenly health now.
You can do it. Prove to yourself and others that 'you
don't
have to be sick!'
Prayer
requests:
Alan- Vietnam veteran who is
suffering agent orange
fallout and addressing it with the Hallelujah Diet
James- following Hallelujah Acres'
aggressive recovery
program to address fallout from antibiotic drugs.
Feet
and legs need special restoration.
Erik- persevering and making progress
against stage
4 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. His Hurom juicer is humming
daily. He is now able to walk and drive his truck.
Betty- battling high blood pressure
and stress-related
problems, but is starting to juice and improve her
diet.
Al- diagnosed with prostate cancer
and has been
improving his diet the living way
New furnace- winter is coming and
our ministry home
needs a new furnace. Estimates for a new unit with
a solar hot water tank are upwards of $15,000. Most
of the year we live without hot water which is not an
easy
lifestyle. Please pray that a new furnace will arrive
soon,
since otherwise we will be forced to burn wood which
would create a challenge difficult for us to bear.

3) Feature
Article: 'The Spiritual Roots of Health-
Part 2'
Last month I began addressing
personal wellbeing from
the hidden, often overlooked, perspective of spirituality.
I submitted that viewing health problems from this
vantage
point is worth investigating in order to effectively
resolve
issues of illness, be they physical, emotional or
mental.
In Part 1 I diagnosed the root cause(s) of
most health
problems as being a combination of spiritual
deficiencies,
namely lack of knowledge, faith, obedience, and
personal
responsibility. Review in depth 'The
Spiritual Roots of
Health- Part 1' here. In an effort to further explore the
nature
and origin(s) of ill health, I now proceed with Part
2 of this
series and present spiritual excesses that hinder our
wellbeing and keep us from attaining ultimate health.
Read on...

Resources
Maine Organic Farmers and Growers Association
Building a natural, wholesome lifestyle
begins with learning
the basics of living on the land and cultivating a
self-
sufficient way of life. The Maine Organic Farmers and
Growers Association (MOFGA) is a valuable resource
for agricultural, environmental, and social issues
relating
to grass roots living. MOFGA offers a variety of
programs,
workshops, and events that educate, inspire, and
promote
sustainable living. They also host the Common Ground
Fair,
one of Maine's most popular annual agricultural
events.
Dates for this year's fair are September 24-26.
For details

Backyard
Farming the Natural Way
Though
the garden season is winding down in many parts
of the country, here is a good resource for the
would-be
backyard farmer. I recently discovered this website a
few
weeks ago and happily learned of this husband-wife
team
in northeast Florida who work their .5 acre homesite
the
natural way. Their gardening experience and
subsequent
insight into the art of working the land is
inspiring. See
for yourself at http://www.ecoyardfarming.com

Recipe: Yellow Summer Soup
One of my summer pleasures is
harvesting our Sun Gold
tomatoes. Though I consider myself patient, I admit
to
being anxious for these yellow-orange jewels to
ripen.
Besides eating them like candy, I use them in raw
soups,
salads, and side dishes. This raw soup is simple,
easy
to make, while highlighting some of summer's
delicacies.
Celebrate the season by blending up the following:
Handful of fresh Sun Gold cherry tomatoes (or
equivalent)
1 large handful fresh yellow wax beans
1 stalk celery
3-4 inches of a large, fresh cucumber
few stems parsley
few stems fresh marjoram
1 small scallion or sliced onion equivalent
(optional)
1 large clove garlic
Dash of Himalayan Salt
Purified water as needed
For variety, make
substitutions, i.e. summer squash or
different tomato varieties and/or tomatillos. Pour
into
serving bowls, garnish with a shake of paprika or
dulse, and eat up!
Organic ingredients
always recommended.
