Time line for this year if you wish to proceed: 1. Send an email to me at LK@wisdomseminars.org asking to be included among this year's Initiands and ordering the eleven preparatory tapes. 2. Purchase INITIATION INTO THE GRAIL MYSTERIES from any online bookstore. 3. Develop your daily Iliaster or Temple Meditation Practice and take the Wisdom Seminars short course on Harmonic Intoning. 4. You will receive an email from me scheduling two conference calls and giving you password access to materials that will show you how to operate and accomplish the Easter-Passover Full Moon all-night Initiatic Vigil, which must be done within the period two nights before to two night after the Full Moon of Passover, which this year falls on Friday, March 25. 5. After telephone conference, you do the Initiatic Vigil, then we do a follow-up conference to interpret the results of your Vigil in preparation for Wesak Initiation and First Empowerment (Over Dark Forces). 6. After the second conference, you will receive Packet #1, which contains special materials and directions for the Wesak Initiation, which is done at the exact time of the Wesak Full Moon on Sunday, April 24, at 3:06 A.M. Pacific Daylight Time, 6:06 A.M. on the East Coast, and 10:06 GMT (all other time zones). The Packet also contains materials for the First Empowerment practices, which are done daily to the next Full Moon in May, when the First Empowerment is received. 7. When you have completed these, email for the next set of Empowerments, etc. They can all be done over 13 months. Please mail me ASAP if you wish to be included in this year's group of T:.H:.G:. Initiands. If you have not been accepted into the Home Temple programs, submit an electronic application. To advance beyond the Fifth Empowerment, however, the Initiate must have been Ordained into valid Apostolic Orders. Thus we encourage T:.H:.G:. Initiands to undertake Ordination studies concurrent with T:.H:.G:. Initiation. Dr. Lewis Keizer

Completion of the YESHUA Seminar for Home Temple Priests and Priestesses earns the B.D. or Bachelor of Divinity Degree, as described in the Catalogue for the School of Sacred Studies on the Home Temple web site. The HARMONIC INTONING Seminar is a must for those preparing for T:.H:.G:. Wesak Initiation and First Order Empowerments. The INITIATIC MYSTERIES is a deep and engaging study of the ancient mystery schools that will enrich your understanding or religion and spirituality. Next up for completion after these: The MARY MAGDALENE Seminar.

Craig writes, "Besides our bi-weekly Mass, we have been doing outreach to a local nursing home. Roses are provided by the Sophia Community and Consecrated Elements under the auspices of the Episcopal Cathedral--the Body working together for the sake of widows and widowers." He says that they now have three new people who regularly attend home Mass.

Our recent ordinand Daniel Doornbos has undertaken a volunteer prison chaplaincy in Santa Clara County. He is willing to advise others interested in this kind of ministry. It is tough, bare-bones stuff with quite rigid rules. However, he has been able to offer the Eucharist, which had not been done before. We have developed a generic Communion Service that can be adapted for this kind of use, based on his comments. If you would like to correspond with Rev. Daniel, send me an email request and I'll put you in touch with him.
