WHAT HAS BEEN ON OUR PATH
|
Greetings!
First and foremost, we
continue to send our prayers to the families of those that died or were injured
as a result of the Sweat Lodge Ceremony that took place on October 8, 2009 on
the sacred land of Angel Valley. We offer our love and support to the other
participants that were impacted. We understand that recovery from the trauma
and the physical and emotional wounds takes time and we wish for all to find
the best path to heal and a full integration within themselves.
By now many of the details around what
occurred on that day along with all that lead up to and then followed the
incident have been documented and released by the Sheriff's Department and
reported by the media. Because of the several lawsuits that include us and that
are pending, we will not be making any statements until after our private
interviews with Yavapai County Sheriff's office are released.

WHAT HAPPENED SINCE
|
We do want to share what we have done since the event. Our
focus has been on healing and on responding to all that is requiring our
attention. Our focus is on learning from the experiences as we continue on our
path. In that process we have returned to our roots and are ready to put our
Ministry out into the world in a more pronounced way.
Since we arrived on this sacred land in 2002 we have done
our best to live in harmony with the land under our stewardship, to respect and
honor this sacred land. We invited others to Angel Valley to be supported on
their journey, even if we would not fully understand or necessarily agree with
their programs or methods. Our Vision, Philosophy and Mission have been
important to us. Yet we did not make it a requirement that every facilitator
should embrace our beliefs.
We have come to see that, in giving them the space to have
their own perspectives, we were not impeccable as Stewards of Angel Valley. We
have taken the opportunity to reevaluate our Vision, Philosophy, and Mission
statements. They clearly state where we are going. You can find them on our
website. Angel Valley's doors are wide open for those who find a resonance with
our Philosophy. They are encouraged to become Co-Creators with Angel Valley in
the commitment to experience the birth of a New Paradigm Reality. Those who do
not feel in harmony with Angel Valley will be guided elsewhere.
Living our Ministry and its philosophy fully has
far-reaching consequences, including financial ones and policy changes.
Actual steps that we have taken are multiple. First we are
proud to announce our new website, which is now almost completed. Please,
re-visit over the coming weeks and you will find more and more pages to enjoy.
Those of you who have been here recently or who have been
following us closely, are aware that we had started to bring in new concepts.
We have shared the vision that Michael had in July 2008, about a New Paradigm
Community. A new approach around money went hand in hand with the community
concept, which we call Conscious Energy Exchange. We have done several
experiments that have been quite fascinating. Recent events have prompted us to
move from being experimental to making the leap of faith and go for it. You can
read more on the New Paradigm Community and on Conscious Energy Exchange on the
website.
People keep asking us whether we are open. Absolutely, we
have been open. Even though we still keep our gate closed, we invite people in
when they call at the gate. The response from both individuals and groups who
were here has been that Angel Valley feels more tranquil than ever before. It
feels like all that has happened is creating a deepened experience. The land
and everything on it has been cleansed and healed by a variety of healers from
different traditions, including Native American. We welcome you to return and
experience all that is new at Angel Valley and continue what has been put in
motion during your previous visit.
We are grateful for prayers and financial support from all
those who feel connected with us!
IN GOD WE TRUST.
Revs. Michael and Amayra Hamilton
