Food forests mimic nature, are outstanding examples of earth stewardship, and arguably the most natural and sustainable food production method available. They are low-maintenance, produce a huge diversity of food and habitat, and help to regenerate and then maintain the land they are grown on.

I bring tidings of blessings resulting from the co-ordination of Snake River Music Gardens of Baker County, Oregon and Youth in Act - Uganda.  Our two organizations have established agreements and certifications to grow food forests.  We are enrolling in our food forest certification program Ugandan Urantia Book readers with missions (1) to orphans and (2) to bring the Urantia Book to the wider community.  

Donations to www.snakerivermusicgardens.org go 100% to orphan care, food forest establishment, and land purchases.  We provide administrative services free of charge.

Waiswa John Billy, director of Youth in Act - Uganda and His Grace Children’s Home, provides site visits to orphanages, and documentation (accounts, reports, photographs, videos) of every gift we send.  Joseph Mulopi, agriculturist of Youth in Act - Uganda, visits food forest sites and qualifies gardeners as food foresters in support of the work of Mulopi’s Extinct Tree Hub, reviving Uganda’s pre-colonial staple food trees.  

Avert Famine!  Grow Food Forests!  Because of the war in Ukraine we have about half a year until un-replenished food stores run out and famine strikes.  In those six months, we have work to do, land parcels to purchase, tools and trees to propagate, seeds to grow.  

Fortunately we benefit from the experience of Snake River Music Gardens president Arthur Sappington, master naturalist, watershed manager, co-ordinating officer of the Jefferson Mining District, who for decades has  protected and propagated food forests both temperate and tropical.

I, Arthur’s wife, Lindianne, am grateful to God for leading me to serve in these endeavors.  In Urantia’s real economy, I serve as an administrator to receive and pass gifts to qualified recipients.  In our joint endeavors with Youth in Act - Uganda, I listen, communicate needs, count, record, give thanks for, place, and administer gifts.

The Urantia Book teaches:  After Jesus’ father Joseph was killed in a construction accident, Jesus as eldest son became the father of his family.  Jesus would not begin his public ministry on earth until he had provided for his mother, sisters and brothers; to provide for his family,  Jesus purchased and planted family gardens.  

Our life mission is to walk in Jesus’ footsteps, purchasing and establishing  food forests, strengthening the vulnerable so—eventually—no human hungers.  

Snake River Music Gardens pays reasonable prices for food forest parcels urban and rural, and through Youth in Act - Uganda places qualified minister-gardeners and matrons onto those lands as landowners.  Certification begins with Youth in Act - Uganda site visits and continues with outreach workshops to train more families to grow food forests.  Although we are non-denominational and non-political, we serve mainly Urantia Book readers through Paul Kemp’s spiritualfamily.net.

Currently we correspond with and/or send gifts to His Grace Children’s Home, Youth in Act - Uganda, Muga Child Outreach, Happy Hours Ministry, and the family and Urantia Book ministry of Gumisiriza Julius.   

Who are we?  My husband Arthur Sappington and I have collaborated for 31 years in natural resources, watershed management and reversing desertification.  We garden, keep bees, make music, build soil, research, write, live and speak as one.   

As a 35-year Urantia Book reader, I had asked at Urantia Book gatherings, seeing so many silver hairs, “Where are the young families with children who are the future of the Urantia Book teachings on this planet?”  One answer is: in Uganda!

People of Urantia United, I pray you to ask the God who indwells you, how best to participate in this historic flow of energy to a beautiful culture long held down by colonial policies and emerging now into its flowering, thanks to the vision and leadership of the African Urantia Book community and the tireless work of Paul Kemp at spiritualfamily.net 

Gifts range from automatic monthly gifts (starting at $10) to strategic one-time gifts through our tax-exempt public charity Snake River Music Gardens.  All donors will receive reports on the progress of the food forests.

To donate, whether monthly or one-time, you are cordially invited to visit www.snakerivermusicgardens.org.  

To meet the most immediate urgent needs, we invite you to make a monthly pledge to the Food Forest Land Fund.  The four parcels we aim to purchase are:  
    1 acre in Kabale for the family and ministry of Urantia Book study group leader Julius Gumisiriza, $1700.  We call this to your attention first because Julius and Cossy’s 1 year old baby Shine is right now battling malaria and needs nourishing foods and medicines.
    10 forested acres with 60 beehives in Mayuge District for Youth in Act - Uganda to expand His Grace Children’s Home from 35 to 100 children, $17,000;     

    Two parcels in Jinja City for Muga Child Outreach to garden, $10,000;    

    A parcel in Jinja City for Happy Hours Ministry to garden, $10,000.  

Total $38,700 divided by 6 months = $6450/month = 645 x $10.  645 Urantia United members x $10 commitment for six months will purchase these lands!  That is why we are reaching out to all Urantia Book readers.

To get personally involved in food forest projects, or if you have questions about this program:
    email Waiswa John Billy at youthinactug1@gmail.com,
    email Arthur at bees@snakerivermusicgardens.org,
    email Lindianne at culture@snakerivermusicgardens.org.
    
Just as Christian denominational churches support overseas missions, it is important for Urantia Book readers to support the growing Urantia Book movement in Uganda.  You can't read the Urantia Book on an empty stomach.  We at Snake River Music Gardens believe the best way to support the Urantia Book movement in Uganda is make sure Ugandan Urantia Book readers who want to grow food forests have land.  FAO and USAID will supply tools, seeds and advice (but will not purchase land). 

Thank you for reading this long introduction.  See our Slides Below..

Blessings,
Lindianne Sarno

The main aim for this group is to make sure the spread of UB Revelation study groups is increased in the south western Uganda. 

Main purpose is for the UB fellowship and Outreaches. 

Mission.

To have a region that understands the Urantia book revelations among the community at large.

Motto.

UB Revelation is a centre of Excellence by the life and true teachings of Jesus. 

How the Urantia revelations is helpful to my ministry? 

Presenting an educational strategy that uses progressive ways to bring people to appreciate revealed truth and the potential benefits of the inner life. Spreading the teachings of The Urantia Book using parallel teachings."

• The expansion of our soul:

• The development of a new mind, an intermediate mind, a morontial mind

• The expansion of our reality in the universe

• The progressive actualization of our cosmic consciousness

• The progressive gain of self-mastery

• The improve ability to communicate with our Thought Adjuster

• The expansion of our ability to love like Jesus loved us

In order to help people receiving and dealing with new facts, I found it really useful to know them, to have a feeling of what they are interesting in; in connecting first at that level, we can build trust and confidence even in a few minutes. Attentive and kind listening is always an asset. Keeping in mind that God's presence indwells them, it is good to verify with them if they have the time and if that they are willing to engage in a deeper conversation, not forcing anything, If so, I would ask questions about their own quest. In doing so, we can prevent and hopefully avoid the pitfalls of projecting the old into the new by starting with what is already present in their lives.

We know deep within that we have been blessed with an amazing gift, the 5th Epochal Revelation. But how are we receiving and perceiving these incomparable and transformative teachings? Let's explore ways to enter into a most fascinating journey, a journey of only 18 inches long, from the head to the morontial heart, from outside in, which will enable us to act and respond to our brothers and sisters and to situations from inside out.

Let's move from facts (read) to meanings (study) to values (living the teachings). Let's examine simple ways to encourage the ones we interact with to go inward, upward, onward and outward and along the way, experience another type of activities, the inner ones. Let's explore how we can whet their appetites and encourage them to go within and discover, progressively, the marvels and the spiritual riches of the inner life in their daily living.

Aim

To make outreaches of the UB revelations especially to the community.

Practicing charity amongst our families and outreaches.

Do crafts to get income to sustain their families.

As the Chairperson of this group,  the Main purpose is to have the UB revelations reach all people all over Kabale as well as the entire nation.

Mission.

UB revelation outreaches

Sports is a very important activity that brings people together as a form of leisure and entertainment and therefore this is a great platform to increase the spread of the Urantia Book Revelations to the players and revelers of the different games and sports. The Urantia Sports Club (USC) will help in the mobilization and organization of different Games and Sports across Uganda which will see the spread of the UB to the different regions of the country.

Located in Mayuge District, Eastern Uganda, we are focused at understanding the good news that Spiritual Family Network brings to us and through the Urantia Book studies we are sharing this message with our communities.

Mayuge Urantia Book Readers Hub is reaching out to communities around the district with the good news and guidance of the Urantia Book. We are also reaching out to the needy like Widows, orphans, young mothers with basic needs and psychological support/ counseling with the little resources available to us.

We are comprised of now over 30 members spread around the district and doing weekly visits to new communities as well as continuous studies with our existing members. We are however are in need of some equipment to ease our services to the communities.

These among others include:

1. Urantia Books  100 (To Be Issued Out to our new members and groups)
2. A camera at a cost of 550,000 Ugandan shillings. To cover videos and photos during our activities.
3. Laptop at a cost of 1,300,000 Ugandan shillings.
4. Facilitation to weekly outreaches and reading sessions, 1,000,000 Ugandan Shillings. (This includes transport, Conference room hire and refreshments for longer sessions). 

These will help facilitate and ease documentation of our activities for easy follow up and reference during future assessments.

Your assistance towards this cause will be a great milestone towards the good work of the spiritual family Network.

Thank you and may you be blessed as you support Mayuge Urantia Book Readers Hub.

WELCOME MESSAGE

Greetings from Pakistan. 

I am Saleem Masih from Pakistan working on the project of DMMPAKISTAN Disciples Making Movement and kids ministry.

I'm President of the Great Pastors Alliance and chairman of the Grace Christian Outreach Ministry Pakistan (Registered.) 

On 7th April, Thursday at 5pm - 8pm we have First Urantia book orientation  seminar and 45 pastors and Evangelists participated with us to learn this Urantia Revelation. Almost 10 people are fluent in English who can help me in getting the translation of this book. 

With this statement I request all of you please support us to translate Urantia book into Urdu language which is national language of Pakistan, so that we can spread this true Revelation.

Currently I need 20+, English books as well

We are trying to outreach the work in Pakistan and join to the greater world wide revelation family. 

MISSION STATEMENT

Welcome to the Great Pastors Alliance a Disciple Making Movement. 

Our mission is to be first with Christ. Our focus is not on physical presence, but rather on being, therefore a matter of participation. The second element of our mission is to sending of the disciples to preach and to give testimony by their deeds.

Our goal of discipleship is  Christlikeness in character and behavior. Christ teaches that there are specific ways in which this change happens:

1. “By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another” (John 13:35).

. 180:1.1 "You well know the commandment which directs that you love one another; that you love your neighbor even as yourself. But I am not wholly satisfied with even that sincere devotion on the part of my children. I would have you perform still greater acts of love in the kingdom of the believing brotherhood. And so I give you this new commandment: That you love one another even as I have loved you. And by this will all men know that you are my disciples if you thus love one another."

We've started on the project of Urantia book study groups in Pakistan, so all Spiritually Intellectual pastors and leaders can study Urantia book and also spread this 5th Epochal Revelation amongst our new generation so we can bring revival in this modern age.
