On the Road in Aruba with John Morton by John Morton
J-R and I, along with the Jsu-led Spiritual Warriors contingent, are in Aruba at the moment with the Spiritual Warriors film to be shown this evening for a likely full house. There is a woman from Venezuela, Andreina Garban, who is here and already working on a third upcoming showing of Spiritual Warriors in Caracas where Jsu will be visiting as the first two are sold out already. Last night, after the You Are the Blessings Workshop, Jsu/J-R/MSIA hosted some of the locals helping at a informal dinner with our group of 14 in from the U.S. We had a full house, 175, for the workshop which I facilitated with J-R attending as well. The questions for the partner exercise we did were translated into the four languages spoken in Aruba, English/Spanish/Dutch/ Papiamento, the local dialect which is a combination of Portuguese and Spanish. From what I have determined we have just one initiate/minister here, Grace Maduro, who just last night became the acting MSIA Representative (she submitted her formal application) for Aruba after being the long-time anchor for Insight Seminars here locally. Grace had donated the rent for the room for the workshop at the Marriott where we are staying--that's putting your body on the line. Maria de Silva, who introduced the workshop and called in the Light, was not even on Discourses nor very familiar with MSIA but she was a natural anyway, thanks to the material prepared for the MC of the workshop by PTS. We have a lot of potential interest building here in Aruba for MSIA/PTS. Many people were taking the cards we had on-hand announcing the upcoming 3-part webcast series "You Are The Blessings" which commences this Saturday. Grace is following up with those who asked to be contacted. At the end of the workshop, I mentioned other opportunities including email classes through PTS and Grace will be following up to make sure these new people have the specific information. I signed many books before and after the workshop. Grace later let us know that all the You Are the Blessings books on hand were sold out completely. Grace had jumped right on it and ordered all the books online from Amazon or Barnes and Noble as well. They were also selling Spiritual Warrior book books along with the tickets for the film showing. Today we are going on one of those Jsu/J-R Spiritual Warriors surprise tours of this island with some of the locals invited to join us. And then it's the Aruba screening tonight for Spiritual Warriors! Cheers, John |
