[Honolulu]
On July 24, on the island of Oahu, our
fellow initiates participated in the Holistic Health Craft Fair to introduce
Master's teachings and share some delicious vegetarian food. Many attendees
were surprised that vegetarian food could taste so good. With Master's
video playing and many sample booklets and magazines being passed out,
the sunny island of Oahu was blessed with Master's infinite light and
love.
Then,
on August 14, our fellow practitioners in Hawaii were honored to participate
in the Fifth Annual Flower Festival in Haiku to show Master's videos
and dispense Master's literature. It was a beautiful, windy day with
traditional music, hula dancing, and a crafts and flower arranging contest.
Many people watched the videos, asked questions and took literature,
and some later received Convenient Method training.
On
August 16, our fellow practitioners went to a prison in Maui, Hawaii,
and presented one of Master's video lectures to the prisoners. After
watching Master's lecture, the prisoners asked many sincere questions
and each disciple had an opportunity to relate an experience of understanding
that was perfect for the questions. There were numerous outbursts of
applause from the prisoners, which was their way of showing their excitement
and understanding of the truthfulness of the information. At the end
of the presentation, the prisoners took all of Master's magazines that
were available in English.
The
following Saturday, August 21, a group of our Hawaii fellow practitioners
enjoyed a two-day retreat at the Ho'omaluhia Botanical Garden, the site
of a bronze statue of Master erected by the mayor of Honolulu in recognition
of Her philanthropic work. All in attendance enjoyed a blissful time
together.
