| A: I would not suggest or [[prescribe]] the particular [[words]] for you. But I would suggest that each [[family]] or each [[group]] that shares Thanksgiving together take some time and [[think]] about what they have to be thankful for; and if they do that, surely there is much they can be thankful for. Whether one [[individual]] [[leads]] a time for thanksgiving or allows some [[quiet]] time for each [[individual]] to think about what they have to be thankful for does not matter. Secondly, I am not just referring to what you do as a [[group]]. But I am also referring to each of you [[individually]]. How many of you, after [[sharing]] this time with [[family]] and [[friends]], went home and truly [[reflected]] upon and [[thought]] about what you have to be thankful for? | | A: I would not suggest or [[prescribe]] the particular [[words]] for you.

| Q: Welmek, I'd like to ask a [[question]]. I don't know if the Cincinnati [[visitors]] have talked about this, but Bob and I get phone calls to this effect all the time. For those of us who have [[friends]] who may request [[teachers]] in [[future]], your answer could be helpful too. What suggestions would you give to a [[group]] who has requested a [[teacher]] so that that would help them [[prepare]] themselves for the coming of that [[teacher]]? | | Q: Welmek, I'd like to ask a [[question]].

| A: First, as we have [[discussed]] before, I would suggest that you send some [[transcripts]] to these [[individuals]] and suggest that they [[read]] some of them. Secondly, it is helpful if someone who has [[participated]] in the [[teaching mission]] could go and talk to a particular group and [[discuss]] the mission with them. Thirdly, I would suggest that if there are two or more that are interested in [[the mission]], that they [[agree]] to set aside a time when they will meet for the specific [[purpose]] of participating in this mission. If they do not yet have a teacher, I would suggest that at this time they [[read]] and [[discuss]] the [[content]] of the [[transcripts]]. I would suggest that each of the [[individuals]] seek the [[stillness]], that they [[worship]], that they [[pray]] and that they ask themselves whether or not they would be willing to serve in the role of the human [[transmitter/receiver]] so that when a [[teacher]] is assigned there will be a [[human]] to [[communicate]] the teacher's [[message]]. | | A: First, as we have [[discussed]] before, I would suggest that you send some [[transcripts]] to these [[individuals]] and suggest that they [[read]] some of them.
