            Ministry update   
            Dear
            Friends,
            The
            sun is shining, the grass is green, and
            most of all, it is WARM! No more snow, cold,
            and tending the wood stove! With joy we are
            opening up the house to bring in the warm. Let
            spring and summer begin!
            With
            warmer days coming on, we are already
            swinging into our usual healthy pursuits of the
            season.
            While we clean up the yard and ready the garden
            for planting, early harvests of fresh herbs and wild
            edibles are now a welcomed, healthy addition to our
            daily meals. Eating free food from the backyard
            adds a special flavor to our lives!
            To
            help celebrate the season of fresh, garden
            foods (whether wild or cultivated), this month's
            HANDS-ON HEALTH meeting, "Eden Eating,'
            will feature a video visit to The Living Centre
            Gardens in Ontario, Canada. Here Shantree
            and Lorenna Kacera live and teach the natural,
            wholesome, living foods lifestyle. This film offers
            the viewer a glimpse into life as it should be...in
            harmony with YHVH and His creation. Learn how
            easy it is to return to Eden and rejuvenate your
            body and spirit. Join us for this extraordinary
            venture into paradisical living. More information
            about this HANDS-ON HEALTH meeting
            is
            posted here.
            Other
            healthy happenings of The Living Way are
            in the making. In June we will return (by popular
            demand) to Fieldstone Gardens in Vassalboro
            to do another smoothie demonstartion as part of
            the Waterville Area Hospice's annual Garden Party
            fundraiser. Details of this event plus an Atlas
            Awareness update will be shared next month.
            Stay tuned!
            This
            month's feature article, 'HEMP for Health,'
            is written in celebration of Hemp History Week,
            May 2-10. Rich in history and nutrition, this extra-
            ordinary plant is considered to be one of the world's
            most valuable, renewable resources. It is also ranked
            as a top superfood. This article gives insight into
            the
            wonders of industrial hemp and how it can enhance,
            if not transform, your health, lifestyle, and our
            planet.
            Treat yourself to this good read!
            Important
            news links follow along in this e-letter.
            As tensions mount around the world, living
            healthy is
            under increasing attack. Educate yourself about
            important events and issues of the day and consider
            becoming proactive.Take time to be informed. Doing
            so is the best defense against the dis-eases of this
            world no matter what they might be. A new and better
            world is coming, but each of us must help to make it
            happen! Therefore do your healthy homework while
            there is time!
            On the
            home front, our backyard garden is waking
            up quickly. Spurred by warm weather, rain, and sun,
            many herbs and wild edibles have reappeared. I can
            tell that the growing season is off to a running
            start.
            Catch the action as I post our Garden 2011 reports
            here.
            
            As for new posts on our website, I have added more
            information on our Radiation page. We
            encourage
            you to investigate this information and take whatever
            necessary precautions seem appropriate for you. Also,
            on the tech side, we have been experiencing problems
            with our hyperlinks lately. We apologize. Let us know
            if
            error messages surface in our emails or on our
            website.
            We will gladly investigate and correct.
            In
            closing, we hope this letter finds everyone healthy,
            happy, and ready to enjoy an invigorating spring and
            summer. Spring is the season for new beginnings,
            the time of resurrection. Consider what this means
            for you personally. Quality of life is an individual
            choice.
            Good taste does not begin in the mouth but in the
            heart.
            Step up to a better life by desiring to be
            healthy.
            Choose to respect, not abuse, the body that
            YHVH
            has graciously and lovingly given you. Start eating
            the way that He recommends. Start exercising. The
            results will amaze you!

            Article: ''HEMP for Health"
            Mention of the word
            'hemp' in some circles often
            evokes a disdainful, negative response as if a four-
            lettered word were just uttered. To say that hemp
            is surrounded by controversy is an understatement.
            Nevertheless, hemp is what it is: a plant. It has
            graced this planet for thousands of years, and given
            its presence in the plant kingdom, why is it here?
            Is hemp a friend or foe? Let us investigate this
            infamous plant to find out.
