DAY 1 – El Paso

Today Paul Kaye and Celia Allen-Graham are heading out to El Paso to begin our Southwest MSIA trip. Mary Ellen Agolia and Susan Shyne, the El Paso/Southern New Mexico co-MSIA Reps, have been working diligently for days to make sure all is prepared. I hear they’ve arrived safe and sound.

DAY 2 – El Paso

Paul and Celia dive into the El Paso Services today. All is going smoothly while behind the scenes more preparations are underway for the Open MSIA Seminar with John Morton that is happening on Saturday.

DAY 3 – El Paso

More Services today. Paul and Celia are thriving as Roger and all the equipment flies out to El Paso.

DAY 4 – El Paso and Dallas

John Morton and Leigh Taylor-Young fly into El Paso today. This heightens the excitement that is starting to build as people from all around southern New Mexico, El Paso, Juarez and even Chihuahua are converging on this city to be with the Traveler. Meanwhile Jean-Marie Hamel and I make our way to the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. Ok, I love these Texan men that open doors, escort me wherever I need to go…chivalry is still alive. Jean-Marie and I do our best to settle in which includes getting exercise by walking around inside the Galleria (it’s just plain hot and humid…real summer weather here) on the outside. Hey, we can place Light columns in front of the Versace store too, and wonder of wonders, there’s an ice-skating rink here with some fancy skating happening. Well, while we top off our settling in with dinner and the requisite emails, our El Paso counterparts are settling in for some inside Light work too — traveling with the Traveler’s Open Seminar. Paul reports that about 60 people attended the El Paso Seminar tonight drinking of the loving that flowed all evening long. Thank you dear friends in El Paso for creating such a beautiful smooth visit for John and our merry band of staff. Tomorrow is a travel day to Dallas for the El Paso crew.

DAY 5 — Dallas

It’s hot here in Dallas, or at least outside; inside it’s brrrr. Takes a little gettin’ used to for us California girls. Still our hostesses for Services keep warmin’ us up with smiles, tea and hugs. Carol Barger’s made her lovely home available and Carol Beau and Rosie from Austin have combined their chef-ing talents to keep us finely fed during our Services day. Ina Carbajal flies in today from El Paso to continue her balancer-in-training time. We’re so happy to see her and greet old friends who come in from all parts of Northern Texas for their Services today. As we go into the afternoon round our El Paso crew land and start settling in at our hotel. Carol Beau and Rosie also provide a chauffeur service and drop us back at the hotel. We find our comrades sitting at Sushi Samba happily dining — they haven’t eaten since breakfast — and nothing can give our appetites a boost quite like traveling for long hours. Paul Kaye, Roger Wakefield and Celia Allen-Graham fill us in on the highlights of their El Paso visit; it’s so much fun to bring our team together. John Morton and Leigh Taylor-Young have also arrived and are out and about — lucky Dallas with a Traveler in your midst. Finally we bid goodnights as each of us have a few things to do before calling it a night.

DAY 6 — Dallas

We start our morning with a full-on team breakfast. John and Leigh join us too. We laugh a lot as we can’t help but assist the fledgling restaurant servers to get our orders handled. It’s day 2 of being open for this restaurant and it seems we’re helping them find kinks they didn’t even know they had. We all finally get fed and then Les Gals do a quick drive to Carol Barger’s home for Services. Once again we’re welcomed and our Services day begins. Meanwhile Paul and Roger head off to the Addison Convention Center to prepare the workshop location for sound and video. Carol Barger has done an excellent job of overseeing all the many details involved in setting up the workshop, buying the books for the booksigning, the registration and assistance at the workshop.

As soon as we finish Services we drive over to the workshop location and do what we can to help put any final touches needed. John and Leigh arrive and then the evening’s activities start. First we have an ordination — always a blessed event. Then the doors are opened and as participants register for this “> You Are the Blessings book(s) and/or John-Roger’s with Paul Kaye’s new Click here to read Days 8 through 12 with Angel Gibson.
