Perhaps inasmuch as this is the last opportunity, you might ask questions of her, curiosity questions about her history with the [[teaching mission]] or those years before in which she learned much about the art from her first [[husband]] who introduced her to [[Midwayer Jack]] and the many entities from on high who paved the way for this medium to come into existence.

0802AB JACK here.  I’ll take Mother off the hook and play and seek.  It is a role I used to play back in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/60s ‘60s] when this early group gathered together to learn about the possibility of communicating with incorporeal entities, such as those I used to bring in. I used to have to ask permission.  Now, the door swings wide open to virtually anyone who has a notion to come and visit. This is [[progress]].  And more progress will be made, no doubt.  Each [[generation]] experiencing its own fireworks, its own excitement and celebration to discover the [[relationship]] that we enjoy.

Yes, I met Gerdean long ago, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1968 1968], and we have together seen much [[evolution]] unfold.  I will miss our interaction.  I will miss Gerdean, for, as you know, I will be here for some time until we [[Midwayers]] are released to ascend.  I know Gerdean’s dedication to our goal and appreciate the thoughtfulness that contributes to urging her to work not just for herself and not just for her fellows in the flesh, but for those of us Midwayers who are here and will be here for a long time to come.  Perhaps, Gerdean, you will think to look at the records and see how we are faring here on [[Urantia]] when you get there.  I can feel this great emotional groundswell as my associates in the [[Teacher Corps]]: [[Tomas]], [[Merium]], [[Paulo]], and the many associates we have served through these many years are looking in on this moment, this historic moment, but I will not allow it to become maudlin or overly sentimental.  Are there any questions?

Eva:    Yes, hi, Gerdean.  This is Eva.  How are you dear?

Eva:    Yes, hi, Gerdean.  This is Eva.  How are you dear?

MERIUM:    She doesn’t need to work hard on our behalf.  There are others.  In fact, this may be an occasion that will [[inspire]] others to step forth, to step forward.  What is it they say?  When one door closes, another opens.

Eva:    Opens.  [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helen_Keller Helen Keller], yes.

MERIUM:    And so perhaps there are 20 other T/R’s out there waiting to come in and pick up where Gerdean is leaving off.

MERIUM:    Yes.

Eva:    Thank you.  I’d like to touch on [[ 2014-06-05-Lightline TeaM|Merium’s lesson last week]] that we aren’t spirit when we arrive here.  I use the phrase “spirit contact” here, and she was very clear that, of course, that is much later.  The adjutant circuit, the energy is first, our first, the [[Adjutant Mind Spirits|adjutant spirits]].  But I just read a plausible account of a woman who decided to terminate, tragically terminate her [[pregnancy]] due to chromosomal [[defects]] that were conveyed to her, and for the child-to-be, and she saw a puff of a cloud, the way she described it, leave her body and pass through the hospital wall and head for the heavens as she passed out due to a pre-op procedure.  She was convinced this was the spirit of her baby, but last month, Merium explained we don’t have spirit contact until we’ve more or less earned it through a moral [[decision]], which the Urantia is clear about.  Was this puffed, and she sounds, as I say, plausible, likely the energy circuit and not a spirit of an adjutant spirit meeting?

MERIUM:    At that stage of the game, there’s nothing there but potential.  And she opted to close out the potential.

Jerry:  Yes, Jack, I’d like to thank you and thank all the personal beings that have graced our dear sister with your [[presences]] and all these happy, happy hours you two have shared, all of you have shared with Gerdean.  Thank you all very much for being this part of her life and showing us what a true bridge looks like and feels like.  Thank you, Gerdean, for being the other end of that bridge and being the living anchor for all of them.  You [[Trailblazing|blazed a trail]], all of you, and given us the opportunity to know that same [[joy]] ourselves.
