Ministry update
Dear
Friends,
Where
did summer go? All of a sudden it's fall and
the harvest is coming in quickly and abundantly!
Crisp
days are here, and winter is on its way. It's the
time of
celebration as the growing season comes to a glorious
finale, and folks everywhere busily scramble to
handle
their garden treasures before the days of deep freeze
begin.
From
talking with local farmers, it would seem that
this year's growing season came on with rapidity and
is coming to a close at the same pace. Those of us
at The Living Way are in this shuffle of keeping up
with
the harvest as it is happening. Fall is always the
busiest
time of year for us, nevertheless a joyous one as we
thank YHVH for a plentiful harvest that will last us
into
the next year.
In
celebration of the fall season, the theme of this
month's HANDS-ON HEALTH meeting is 'Handling
the Harvest.' It
will be a multi-facted presentation
that will give insight and practical tips into how to
enjoy
the fall harvest and extend it into the winter
months.
Discussed will be matters of food preparation,
storage,
and preservation. The evening promises to be
friendly,
informative, and creative. Plan to join us and bring
a
friend. Details about the meeting are posted here.
By way of report, last month's ATLAS
AWARENESS
DAY with Christine Bemish, RN was a
resounding
success as several in our area (myself included!)
received remarkable results by having the atlas
correction. Since response was enthusiastic,
Christine
returns this month by popular demand. Some are
seeing years of chronic pain, visual impairment, back
problems, numbness, etc. disappear for as a result
of the atlas correction. We encourage you to
attend
Christine's free lecture on Friday, October 22
to
hear her personal testimony, learn more about this
non-invasive, natural therapy plus talk with others
who have recently experienced the atlas correction.
Appointments are being taken for Saturday,
October 23 (please note the change of date
for
this event). Learn more about ATLAS
AWARENESS
DAY here.
This
month's featured article will be the conclusion of
my series entitled, 'The Spiritual Roots of
Health.'
The focus of these writings has been to
enlighten as
well as challenge the reader to that higher level of
living known as 'ultimate health.' If we are to
experience
wholeness, it is necessary to educate ourselves
concerning the process. It is my hope that what I
present in 'The Spiritual Roots of Health-
Part 3'
will help you better travel the road of life that you
might arrive at the glorious destination of wonderful
wellbeing. Consider this series as a prayer for your
personal wholeness. Parts 1 and 2
are archived here
for your reference.
As
usual, links to various news articles follow along
in this letter. There are countless reports that
could
be shared, but I include ones that should pique your
interest. Worthy to note is that Senate Bill 510 was
not voted upon before the 111th Congress adjourned
last week. This development is encouraging news
for those of us who value personal health freedom
which includes choosing clean, non GMO food to eat
and growing your own vegetable garden. Continue to
stave off political tyranny by voicing your
opposition
to this bill. Contact your elected officials while
time
is in our favor. For up-to-date reports visit
http://www.healthfreedomusa.org
Closer
to home, those of us at The Living Way have
been running to keep up with the harvest. Our kitchen
is buzzing nearly 24/7 as dehydrators hum with
pleasure
at their contents. We are pulling out trays of
crackers,
fruit leathers, salads, chips, and assorted greens.
We
lovingly pack them away for winter use. While our
backyard garden is slowly fading away, the harvest is
still surprisingly plentiful. Daily I am bringing in
greens,
tomatoes, peppers, zucchini, herbs, and more. Our
Concord Grape harvest weighed in at a record 107lbs!
Read all about our lastest backyard exploits in our
on-going Garden Log
2010.
Last
month we treated ourselves by attending the
Common Ground Fair. Touted as being one of the
nation's top-ranked agricultural fairs, we were
delighted
to engage the event with healthy enthusiasm and enjoy
the opportunity to see agricultural activities 'up
close
and personal.' We saw farmer friends, viewed
exhibits,
and learned more about local 'green' happenings. For
us the highlight of the Fair is always the Exhibition
Hall
where farmers and growers 'exhibit their wares' in
friendly competition. Viewing the handiwork of fellow
growers is always a special treat. It's like a giant
show-and-tell with hundreds of entries displayed
on long tables and risers. I had ten entries and
won nine awards, two of which were Judges'
Awards (rarely given, I am told). What a thrill!
Learn more about my Fair entries and honors here.
In closing, we hope that you
are making progress
on the high road to health! In case you are not
aware,
living healthy is a lot of fun! The body temple is
built,
maintained, and restored by living foods, so give
your
body what it wants. Eat well to live well. Prove to
yourself and others that there is a better way to
live
beyond sickness, pain, and disease. Be a walking
testimony of the remarkable truth that
'You don't have to be sick!'

Article: 'The Spiritual Roots of Health-
Part 3'
Finding one's way through life often presents
challenges,
if not formidable dilemmas. What to do, how to do it,
where to go and where not to go can become daily
connundrums that often baffle, especially when trying
to
resolve issues of personal health. Suffice to say,
along
life's highway there are no sign posts, no traffic
lights,
no road markers to physically give us directions.

Resources
A number of years ago we
discovered Western Mountains
Alliance, a valuable local resource for
agricultural-related
information and activities. The Alliance promotes
community-
based sustainable living by offering workshops,
lectures,
programs, and events. If you want to make grass-roots
connections and network with like-minded agri-folks,
WMA is a friendly, useful resource. Find them on the
web
at http://westernmountainsalliance.org/

5) Buying tips
and order info
BeetMax
Treat yourself to the richness of beets
without the bother
of juicing. BeetMax from Hallelujah Acres is a
convenient
way to enjoy the goodness of fresh beet juice. Add
BeetMax powder to water or fresh juice for a tasty,
nutritious, colorful drink. Available from Hallelujah
Acres here.
Vitamin D3
Winter is coming and as the sun drops lower
in the sky,
so does the amount of the 'sunshine vitamin,' Vitamin
D,
decrease. Low levels of Vitamin D can cause numerous
health problems: heart,
brain, blood pressure, joint, and
skin problems as well as weak bones, mood swings
(including depression), low blood sugar levels,
fatigue,
and a weakened immune system. Vitamin D deficiency
can also cause Seasonal Affective Disorder. Because
Vitamin D helps regulate cell growth, it has proven
affective in preventing and reversing many types of
cancer. Vitamin D also aids in the body's ability to
absorb calcium boost brain function, and much more.
Consider supplementing your diet with Vitamin D.
Available from Hallelujah Acres here.

equipment, including
other juicers, a dehydrator, VitaMix, etc.,

Recipe: Root Slaw
My prize-winning
Forono Cylindrical Beets
As we move into the
colder months of the year, root
vegetables are an excellent salad solution. Hardly
and 'meaty', roots are mineral rich and their tops
nutritionally dense. While beets, carrots, jerusalem
artichokes, etc. are commonly cooked and eaten,
they are more nutritious in the raw, being
surprisingly
sweet, succulent, and tender. Give 'raw rooties' a
try
by making this seasonably appealing salad!
3-4 red beets
2-3 large carrots
Handful broccoli florets
Assorted greens of choice
Red onion slices or scallions
1/4 cup shredded red cabbage
1/4 cup shredded green cabbage
1/3 cup walnuts (presoaked, rinsed)
1/2 cup sesame seeds (presoaked, rinsed)
Fresh herbs of choice
Couple tablespoons fresh lemon juice
A little fresh, grated ginger
Grate beets and
carrots, placing them in a large mixing
bowl. Break greens into bite-sized pieces and toss
into
mixture. Add remaining ingredients and toss well. Let
sit unrefrigerated for a couple hours before serving
in
order for flavors to marry.
Organic ingredients
are always recommended.
