===Opening===
 
Elyon (Jonathan): Thank you, my friends, for once again meeting us that we may exchange experiences, insights, with each other, all with the eye single to growth in this universe, of which there are great discoveries to be received by all who are adventurous, who are stirred in the inner man to discover. You each have contributed to one another's spiritual progress through the simple medium of conversation. You broaden each other's ability to grasp significance in life and to grapple with difficulties. You do this by revealing your fortitude as well as your insecurities. Bravery does encourage another; however, even the exposure of your frailties helps others to reduce the sense of isolation, that is, the sense of lack of ability. You witness that difficulties are survivable.

===Lesson===
 
Today I would like to focus awhile on presence. Being embodied as you are, you are quite engulfed in the need to be in one location or another throughout your day. Much of your activity, in fact all, has a great deal to do with where you are located physically. You, my students, are developing the fine qualities of presence of mind. You are learning to use your mental abilities; you are integrating the lessons we have provided regarding insight, intuition, intelligence. Presence of mind enriches your experience in life; it allows you to pack your present moment with all that is worthwhile from your past and all that is valuable for your future.

===Dialogue===
 
Ann: I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the words you gave me back in February regarding my disease. I want to express my gratefulness for the healing that is taking place in my body. I am so grateful to you and to the midwayers, the Life Carriers, and the Father.

This conference brings with it a different sort of attendance. Often gatherings of this nature are attended for upliftment and for sharing. In this case, there will be a healthy dose of ministry. This conference will contain both the element of play and recreation and the element of spiritual ministry. So, I encourage those attending to be on the alert for opportunities, and I encourage all attending to likewise be alert for the reception of ministry.

Elyon: This is Elyon, and I would wrap up our gathering today by making a little comparison.

You know the three wise men brought three gifts to Michael as he lay in that little crib taking on the form of Joshua ben Joseph. I would encourage you to realize you have three presences through which you may function. One goes without saying, your physical form. The other two are for you to develop and grow into. Rest assured that the Father is as real and even more so than is the form you inhabit. I encourage you all to make efforts at expanding your sense of presence. Farewell.
