For Chris and Lee -

A brief rundown on the aspirant situation on the Gold Coast for your perusal.

Currently there are 22 people interested in receiving Knowledge who have submitted their details for the aspirant mailing list. Plus a handful more who have not yet done that. There is a core group of six who have been regularly attending for between one and two years and it has been incredible to watch their progress. Their growth, their enthusiasm , their patience and now their acceptance of the process. Very beautiful.

One aspirant has been attending and participating for three years . He is underage and still has more than one year until he turns eighteen. A few more are on the borderline of fulfilling the criteria of at least five months of listening and preparing.

The rest are a mostly young in age, energetic influx around the time that we started low key advertising (Dec) Not all of them came to hear M's message because of the advertising but it was around that time. This group of aspirants are very regular and seem to have developed an understanding quite quickly compared to those who have come before them. The young ones especially, are energetic. Often coming early, first it was to exchange their videos and then looking for something to do to help. A group of them got together themselves and asked if they could write to M to express their love and gratitude, and to ask Him to come.

There is one aspirant who came to the introductory event in December, then to the two learning more events that followed, and has come to every event on the Gold Coast since then, both venues, without missing a beat. Inspiring for us!

It has been an exciting time at the events watching the aspirant numbers grow so rapidly, and to see that they are so obviously inspired by Him. Our regular PPRK event was only on Sundays until the beginning of this year. Then we started noticing that the bulk of the aspirants were attending the Thursday night event. It was then we decided at a team meeting to schedule PPRK videos (and those videos suitable for both) on Thursdays as well to care for those who were unable to attend on Sundays. Also to screen more of videos recommended for aspirants (Some do not have VCR at home or their. situation is unsuitable for home viewing. ) Attendances now at both events have grown.

All in all we have had to move with the times so to speak, it has been very beautiful for us over the last few months with things moving quickly, and a great privilege to be involved with the aspirants and their remarkable and most magical process.
