*	Elyon  (Mark TR):  Greetings, I return among you once again
today in joy and excitement at our upcoming service  projects.  This
is your friend and associate Elyon.  I refer to the upcoming birthday
celebration as a project which we share together as, in fact, this is
the case.  We work closely together, more so than you might envision
from your viewpoint, to orchestrate the potentials surrounding the
event such as this upcoming celebration.
	As has been stated to you before, you are the extension of the
spiritual side of the equation.  You are the physical movers and
shakers who, through your efforts,  physically manipulate the
surroundings and accommodations so as to make opportunities available
for us, your complements on the other side.  We alone cannot pull
individuals together, house them, feed them, and provide them with
much of the stimulation that occurs as a result of the assembling of
the many individuals.  It is required for you all to be the
representatives we have spoken of so many times, to be our
representatives, to be Michael's representatives.  This is an
enormous opportunity before you for service and subsequent growth.
	During this gathering look in all directions for the
opportunities presented to you to be of service to your brothers and
sisters, to minister and to be ministered to.  We will be in
attendance throughout the festivities seeking ways to interject, as
well as simply observing the fine work you do in bringing about
discussions and realizations.  Consciously be aware that we are
working hand in hand.  This makes our connection stronger, purer.  It
gives us greater latitude in delivery of our lessons.  It allows us
more freedom to inspire when there is a conscious connection between
yourselves and ourselves.  I state to you plainly at this time that
this is our arrangement, removing all doubt in your minds as to
whether or not we are to function in this capacity together, in an
effort to strengthen your resolve to do so.  You all have taken many
steps in reaching out beyond your comfort zones to play your hunches,
to extend yourselves beyond what you would personally feel
comfortable with.  Before you lies another great opportunity for your
growth as you, in faith, once again extend and reach out to those
around you and up for assistance.  I assure you, you will have
success in both directions.
	Many coming to this gathering are in need of the faith you may
exhibit for them, which you may display.  They crave your sense of
surety, your steadfastness and your willingness.  Openly share this
with them.  Demonstrate this in your every action, your every deed. 
Seek out every opportunity to minister to those who would assemble
with you, around you.  Your efforts will far more than simply benefit
them but will propel you forward in your growth, as well.
	These occasions which you so faithfully orchestrate are as a
giant field day for the teachers and all those on the other side who
observe with such favor your efforts, as there are so many
opportunities concentrated in one location at one time.   We will be
very busy, yourselves and ourselves together, in the upcoming
weekend.  As much effort as it takes to be about this business, you
will discover yourselves infused with the energy required as well as
the added sense of satisfaction which comes from working in faith, in
surety.  Remain aware, as consciously as you are able, of our
connection, our purpose, as we proceed together to go about doing
good, to be about the Father's will in ministry to His children, as
we spread the good tidings of love and peace and faith together.  You
are the last and vital link in our chain, without which we cannot
make contact.  We require your services and we offer ours.  Together
we will have a definite impact.  I look forward to working with you
and to addressing the assembled crowd this weekend.
	I encourage each one to spend whatever time you can justify in
your schedule this upcoming week to have extra stillness so that you
are even more aligned with the will of the Father as we go into our
duties side by side. 
	Once again I thank you.  You have my love and my respect.  I
will be with you as will the others as the situations arise.  I will
allow for others to speak at this time.
*	Rantarason  (Jonathan):  Greetings to you all.  This is
Rantarason.  I wish to reconvey focus for this Teaching Mission. 
	First there is the ever-important project that is the
Correcting Time, that is, the push for progress toward Light and
Life; primarily at this time to right the wrongs of the past, to
place your progress as a planet back on track.  This is difficult; it
will not be accomplished perfectly, for the very turmoil that has
resulted here will forever alter your course.  However, this does not
mean you must ever be outside of the projected plans for any
evolutionary world.  
	Second in importance in this mission is your personal spiritual
advancement.  I do not mean to imply that it is of secondary
importance, only that it is my second comment about the two important
factors.  You are human beings, I think you know that by now.  We are
keenly aware of your attention span.  Activities on a planetary scale
are beyond your scope of focus.  You will be enlisted in our services
when the appropriate time arrives, though much that we all look
forward to accomplishing may extend decades into the future before
the opportunity arises to function.  Therefore, most of our focus
with you has been the betterment of your own selves.  This is
something of immediate worth to you.  It benefits us, for we receive
improved workers for this teaching mission.   But I must underline
that your personal growth is well taken care of by numerous
personalities and non-personal entities.  You do not need the
teachers to grow.  We invest in your growth for the purpose of the
progress of the Correcting Mission that we have volunteered for under
the banner of Michael and in allegiance to Machiventa.  So, in all
decisions and actions you take involving this mission, remember that
it is for the good of everyone resident on Urantia, and, in order for
it to be good for all, we are enlisted in your individual betterment,
a program for accelerating your growth within the accepted rates
permitted by our sovereign.  You will grow regardless of our
presence, but ask yourselves, how will you apply your growth for the
betterment of this world?  You have accepted this mission and are
engaged in its outworking.  This is a scope that few have been able
to perceive in their lives.  Our goal is that all will eventually do
so, as the plan originally was on this and many other worlds.  It is
perhaps illustrated with the Golden Rule.  You are doing unto
yourselves in personal growth that you may do unto others.  It is
perfectly acceptable for all human beings to grow in their ascension
paths to the Father.  I must remind you in  this mission that you
have a parallel purpose, and that is that your growth be of benefit
to others.  How you go about this is highly individualized and
associated with the plans of teachers assigned throughout this
mission.
	I hope I have provided some clarity for you today. 
	Evelyn:   Simeon asked us to ask Elyon -- or any teacher, I
suppose -- a few questions about Ham's request to speak at IC99.  I
feel, and I think this group agrees, that these issues were
adequately addressed by Machiventa in his recent statement through
Susan Kimsey.  Nevertheless, since the request was made, here are the
questions.
	Why was Ham's announcement timed with the Teaching Mission List
discussions?
*	Elyon:  Elyon speaking.  Let me answer this question in this
manner:  I ask you to reflect upon the twelve apostles.  Many times
they engaged themselves in discussions of the coming kingdom.  Many
times they developed plans for establishing this kingdom which were
not at all aligned with Michael's chosen course.  As dedicated as
they were and as confused as they were about his program, he,
Michael, continued to work toward his goal of fulfilling the Father's
will as a revealing son of God in spite of his apostles' opinions. 
They had to adapt continually to his apparently surprising moves, not
one move of which was unprepared in Michael's mind.  
	Ham has, in effect, done likewise.  He has a very well
established relationship with the transmitter Rebecca and has been
effective in expressing his desires to her at this day.  Any one of
us could have made this same gesture; each of us would have selected
a TR and done so according to our knowledge of the personality
involved. 
	Plans are in the works for this gathering in the Urantia
community.  You are being reminded that the teachers are involved.  I
caution you not to expect any extraordinary address, but that will
not discount its content as being highly important.
	I know you have other questions.
	Evelyn:  Could this undermine the relationship of TeaM folk and
other UB people in light of the Fellowship's tolerance being shown
now?
*	Elyon:  No, it will not.  Just as Ham addressed this same body
in years past, he is doing so again.   Then he was seen as a mere
fluke in the mind of a deluded individual.  Now this same body is
being given another opportunity to reckon with this mission, that has
continued to grow and manifest the fruits of the growth now for many
years.  This will leaven the bread.  
	There will be no sweeping changes immediately from this event. 
Again, as the apostles were reluctant to journey forth into Jerusalem
when Michael requested it, the mission has been, from the human
perspective, the human actions, rather low-key.  The incubation
period will be closing in the near future, and you will all be facing
another decision in your involvement in this mission.  The openness
shown to the Teaching Mission is patterned after the phrase, "Ask and
you shall receive; seek and you shall find."  This to us is a call to
serve and we have responded.
	Evelyn:  What is the teachers' perspective of the Ham
announcement?
*	Elyon:  I would ask you to review my prior comments, as this
has been addressed.
	Evelyn:  What does Ham want at the session?  A big room?  A big
audience?
*	Elyon:  Ham wants all willing listeners to come with trust and
an open ear for truth.  He in no way wishes to be confrontational and
would ask any who are disturbed by his presence to treat themselves
to not being present.  How you work out the logistics of the site is
your concern.  These are matters of a physical nature.  Should there
be no location, we know that there are able transcribers in the
mission who can make his announcement available to even those who are
not at this conference.  
	Evelyn:  Thank you, that's the list.  Strikes me as much ado
about nothing.  Hopefully your answers will be helpful.
*	Elyon:  I would draw closure today and repeat to spend extra
time in stillness this week in preparation for your upcoming
celebration.  It will do you a great service in approaching a closer
embrace with Michael.  It will do your fellows a service as you each
amplify the spiritual dimension of your life.  Farewell.
