Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could actually DO SOME GOOD ??

Sure. "Let anyone thirsting take Life's water free" if need be. But, donations make things happen.

... Haven't you ever said--"Let's DO SOMETHING !!"

Do you realize, >>IT'S TIME to do SOME THINGS for ourselves<< ??

"Gummint" has plundered and is plundering and pillaging our people. We must help ourselves by helping each other or we'll all SUFFER and many of us will perish. ORGANIZE BUYING CLUBS. Buy in large lots from wholesale supplies, and divvy up the orders at somebody's house.

After that! Empty your closets and your garage!! Become aware! -- SHARING WHAT YOU NO LONGER NEED benefits >Everyone<. "Excess" can become the means by which The Law of Ten blesses your own friends in your own community who lose everything. How much more resilient our community becomes when people >SHARE< what they no longer need with each other.

Let's talk about awareness and strengthening the bonds of families and community. Here in the Hill Country of Texas, industry doesn't exist. There are the landed gentry and the squatters, no one to initiate "prophet-able" enterprises except conventional profit-making businesses requiring their customers to trade with money.

Holy Conservancy has identified functions that can be met for nothing or very little actual "cost." By "volunteers" helping each other, surplus donations [available from Federal, State or Local Gummint] can be turned into jobs. But, look out for strings. But even donations from members, associates, neighbors [and readers like you] show respect for the Power of Tenfold Return and the principle of Free Will.

  • A Foundation -- Land is needed for Campgrounds [with pet cemetery and recycle area]--A place to go for the temporarily embarrassed working family;
  • Secondary cash-cows -- Arts, Consignment, Recycling and Refurbishing centers must be organized to gather and reshape cast-offs: serviceable clothing, housewares, toys, cds, skills books; cans, bottles, rags; crops; plastic containers; and furniture to sift, sort, restore, re-use, recondition, re-package -- as Goodwill used to do -- all volunteer -- living in the campground rent-free by earning sweat equity.
  • Tertiary services-- Skills desk to call up or go to--resident workers to show up and share what they know and can do : man the phone 24/7; provide maintenance, clean-up, day-care, laundry, kitchen-help and meals, library-help, outside day-labor and temp services for cash;
  • Add-ons --Not MLM's--Skill-based interests: Cooking classes; a Pawn shop to buy, sell and liquidate "stuff" and raise cash; Dog-Training, cooperative Libraries for books, media, tools and seeds, tutoring, and so forth.

The HOLY LAW of Abundance--It's simple commonsense--"What goes around, comes around." What you GIVE comes back to you 10 times--Bad or GOOD.

By Contrast--Greed is the desire to KEEP HOLD of more than one's material needs--THE "obtaining extra stuff" mania that Consumerism teaches.

Consumerism doesn't work, does it? . . . IT'S TIME THAT'S PRECIOUS, NOT STUFF. >>SO<<, Let's "clear the decks." Organize your own thrift shop, and place your extra stuff so it can do some good for somebody.

WHY NOT--Rejecting Greed--GIVE >ALL< YOUR EXTRA STUFF AWAY ... HOW WOULD THAT CHANGE THE WORLD??

LOOK AT IT THIS WAY ! Giving somebody a chance to do something with A cast-off FREES BOTH the Giver and Receiver.

$5
$10
$20
$50

Freeing the Giver-- When you share from your abundance, you are freed three times:

  • Sending money, bequeathing land, turning over an old usable car, truck, camper or trailer, you become truly free from the worry and hassle over ownership.
  • When people know a donation will be used honorably, it feels good, to give--plain as that.
  • In asking for donations, we provide you the chance and enable you to put the Law of Ten into operation in your own life--"What goes around, truly does come around." Give and get back Good.

Freeing the Receivers--
  • Give a chance to the unemployed and underemployed to associate together with leadership--not just a dole--and have a place and a reason to "be family."
  • "Exploit loose 'stuff' and making something useful out of it is better than acting out a dependency script.
  • Use what free time we have to meet needs of those in deep lack, we develop skills in the process -- marketable, useful skills and learn the skill of cooperating.

WHY NOT give away your extra Money, Land and unused stuff? Allow your gifts invest in a chance put to work; have faith that Gifts will be returned in time, in many ways.

Let Holy Conservancy accept and use whatever excess you have, to fill and satisfy legitimate needs and teach skills to those of us who must adapt or starve.

"It feels to me as if "Giving is an extension of Reason. Having MY money, time and resources speak for me is what I value and support."
