Douglas: I will speak the words.
The presence of our God enfolds us.
The power of God protects us.
The love of our God surrounds us.
He is with us in all things.

Greetings my beloved brothers and sisters; servants in the cause of our Savior Michael. For you who desire to hold the banner of Michael high and light the path for others to follow it is an honor to greet you on this day, and share with you the joy, the love, and the blessings of our God. It is always go to be in unity; to be of one mind; to think in terms of the oneness of our Father; and the greatness of His plan that encompasses every mortal of ascension ability. It is good that you seek the quiet time of spiritual development; of being in tune with the Father's will; in carrying out His will throughout your daily lives.

We are pleased with the progress that you are making. The growth is fantastic by leaps and bounds you exceed our expectations. This group has a high spiritual quotient. We believe you will see surprising developments in the near future. Developments that you have not dreamed that you could accomplish, but yet are just over the horizon to your attainment. It will be grand for you to march on into eternity carrying the rest of mankind right along with you holding out your hands and grasping your brothers and sisters who are seeking to know the Father as you have found Him. Share your smile; share your comfort; share your knowledge; and experience with those who are seeking also. We pause for a moment.

Sometimes we have to hold back the spirit. It overtakes this vessel. But he is willing. All is well. We see joy in your faces. Your hearts are dancing. You may speak to us today of your hearts desires. I, Aflana, will respond for I am here as your teacher and servant.

Dora: Good afternoon, Aflana. I just heard you say that you are our teacher. You are no longer our intermediatory?

Aflana: Yes, I am your teacher and guide.

Dora: Thank you.

Aflana: As you know, I visit numerous groups, and I have been responsible for starting and urging the continuation of numerous groups. It is the will of Michael that I do so, and I like you, hear the voice of my savior and I obey.

Hal: Aflana, your introduction of the progress that we were making was most gratifying. It makes us feel as though we are really learning to do the Father's will. We thank you for those words.

Aflana: It is our pleasure. We feel great joy in being with you, and seeing you daily strive so hard to do the will, and know the will of the First Source and Center. So it is with pride that we participate in this growing endeavor to establish this group amongst the Teaching Mission. I wish to say to you that the Teaching Mission is progressing on schedule as planned in accordance with the dictates and will of Michael of Nebadon.

Hal: That is most gratifying. It is hard for us to visualize a small nucleus of 85 groups or whatever it is that can effect a planet of 5 billion people. It is hard for us to visualize the success that you predicted that will come.

Aflana:  Believe. It is difficult sometimes for us ascending and enlightened beings to grasp the full measure of this divine plan. But know that the Father's will, will be manifest in all things and particularly through the efforts of you faithful in this Teaching Mission. So rest assured that your efforts are appreciated. And you are love and thought very highly of by all.

Hal: There must be then love in the hearts of millions of people that are susceptible and willing to catch this feeling of the Father's love.

Aflana: Oh, yes, millions upon millions share the Father's love and reflect it accurately. As you read in the book, and in the Bible for He so loved the world that He gave his Son unto it that all could share the love and receive everlasting life.

Betty: Aflana this is Betty.

Aflana: Hello, Betty.

Betty: Aflana, we just lost our kitty yesterday. Tracey and I are very sad. Could you tell us where kitties go when they die? Is there a place for our beloved pets?

Aflana: This is an interesting question, because the animal life do not have the will prerogatives that you ascending mortals possess. They live full lives and share in the spirit that the Father has bestowed upon them, but they do not have the prerogatives of additional life contrary to the belief systems of this planet. There are animal lives on other planets some of which do have will prerogatives. I wish I could address this greater, but at this point I can't. I will, however, seek an answer in more detail for you.

Betty: Thank you, Aflana, that would be most appreciated.

Aflana: You're welcome.

Lucille: Aflana, this is Lucille. And it is probably a very personal question, but it certainly has affected our lives the past six weeks. Our granddaughter wants to stay with us, and I wondered if you could address that as to whether we should, or how we could help her to make her decisions?

Aflana: Have you asked this one to stay?

Hal: We indicated that she is certainly welcome, and we would love to have her.

Aflana: You have opened your home, and you have opened your heart. And you have resigned yourself to her presence being with you. Is this true?

Lucille: I don't know whether we can handle the responsibilities of a 15-year old as we once did, but we are willing to try.

Hal: I would say yes we have resigned ourselves to her presence and the love she can share with us.

Aflana: It is within your being to handle this one.

Hal: You think we can make it, then.

Aflana: I think with the help of the Father, with daily seeking his guidance; with an understanding with this child that you do this in love and desire for her growth and that she be protected under this household; I think that you can reach her inner desires, and can be in tune, and she can live with you in peace and grow.

Hal: You feel then that it would be better for her to be here than with her mother? Or is that a decision that we must make.

Aflana: That is a decision that encompasses four people.

Hal: Thank you.

Aflana: The mother is agreeable to sharing so you should discuss this matter in more detail with her. Does that help you.

Lucy: Thank you.

Aflana: Hello, Joseph.

Joseph: Hello, Aflana.

Aflana: How are you?

Joseph: Doing well, thank you. I have a personal question, also. I have a sister who is going through some pain and some turmoil. I would like to know I can help to ease that somewhat.

Aflana: We felt your concern. Often times these feelings come through, and we are able to share them with your T/R's. Love, Joseph. Taking this person into your heart; being receptive and a listener. Listen with an open mind. Offer your assistance. Seek guidance in the stillness. Listen for the answer. It is there. It will come. It will be correct in it's time. That is all, Joseph.

Dixie: Hello, Aflana. I know that seeking one's spiritual name is not the concern of the majority of the members of this group. But whenever I am seeking the stillness, I can't identify with any of the names that I have had all my life. And what I am seeking is my spiritual name so I can learn to identify myself better. I have never been comfortable with any of these names that is why I usually tell people call me "Whatever!" Am I able to know at this time what my spiritual name is, or at a later date?

Aflana: Please wait.

Aflana: LoriElle. LoriElle is the name. It has great significance. It is equal to my helper and sister.

Aflana: Our message is not clear at this time. We will rest for a moment.

Aflana: Please wait.

Aflana did not return to speak though everyone in the group wanted to hear her farewell. Aflana then returned briefly to say farewell speaking through another possible T/R in the group. She indicated that Douglas needed rest, and should be resting from his transmitting at this time.
