Here are comments from participants in the MSIA events in Washington, DC with John Morton and Leigh Taylor-Young Morton,
\nApril 27, 28 and 29, 2025.<\/em><\/p>\n

Kerry Mounts:<\/strong>\u00a0 \u201cI absolutely loved watching the LA Global Ministers Meeting with John and Leigh, and being right there as Leigh did her beautiful planetary blessing and John shared some very special moments. Being with about 35 other ministers in person was divine!<\/p>\n

My other favorite moment was in St. John\u2019s Church where several of us gathered early Tuesday morning to hear the Traveler speak and learn some history of the church. It was quiet, peaceful, serene, and beautiful.\u201d<\/p>\n

Barney Singer:<\/strong>\u00a0 \u201cSharing the experiences of being at the Capitol Building, Arlington National Cemetery and other DC landmarks with our spiritual community felt sacred to\u00a0me. It opened my heart at this time when many are experiencing challenges, and allowed us to bring Light for the highest good everyplace we went. I am also grateful for having participated in the Peace is Present workshop. It was a beautiful opportunity to learn a way to claim my peace when I choose.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kate Ferrick:<\/strong>\u00a0 \u201cTwelve of us were blessed to have lunch at the Capitol Hill Club in DC. An exquisite buffet lunch was available. John Morton shared with the group from his heart. I personally experienced a beautiful presence of Spirit and felt privileged to be part of the experience. I was told that many people who work in government positions go to that club. I felt that after the Traveler and all of us were there, the frequency of the club was raised.\u201d<\/p>\n

Karen Faherty:<\/strong>\u00a0 What made the Arlington National Cemetery\u00a0visit so special for me was the opportunity to walk and talk with John and Leigh as they reminisced about prior visits.\u00a0The weather was beautiful as we walked up the gradual incline from the Welcome Center through the acres and acres of solemn stones.\u00a0\u00a0Our self-guided tour included a stop at President John F. Kennedy\u2019s burial site and the eternal flame.<\/p>\n

At the top of the hill at Arlington House, where General Robert E. Lee once lived, John called forward a blessing of Light for strength and understanding in front of the half-mast American flag which was honoring Pope Francis’ passage into God. As synchronicity has it around the Traveler, John also recognized that our visit to Arlington converged with the current US Presidential administration\u2019s first 100 days in office.\u00a0The convergence, transformations and loving service all came through the Grace of loving God and Life eternal. It was a blessed visit.<\/p>\n

Jane Lucien-Scholle:<\/strong>\u00a0 “Thank you for the beautiful series of events with the Traveler!\u00a0 These three days unfolded with precision, ease, and grace.\u00a0 What an inspired, inspiring, and memorable time!\u00a0 And so much fun to have the opportunity to meet so many East Coast MSIA ministers and initiates.”<\/p>\n

Chip Conley:\u00a0 \u201c<\/strong>For my part, helping Roger and the Now Productions staff set up the audio\/video arrangements for Traveler events is an element of my ministry. I enjoyed assisting in this way on Sunday for the two events at the hotel. As usual, we ran cables to all the audio speakers, microphones and cameras and then taped the cables into place on the floor. At the end of the workshop, we completed the breakdown by pulling up all the tape, coiling all the cables, and packing away everything for the trip to the next venue in Philadelphia. I was filled up with the Light and the joy of working as One with others, in cooperation, in service with loving camaraderie. It is a sweetness that never tires each time I assist in this way.\u201d<\/p>\n
