serving today's generation

In every generation of man His Human Teachers of Truth, Prophets,  Ambassadors, Messengers and Apostles appear on the earth and bring new and higher teachings about the gift of the Father (eternal life) and the Merciful Ministry of Salvation through the Master Creator Son's Spirit of Truth known on this world as Jesus Christ to every individual who receives these divine gifts.

Every citizen will eventually come to understand that Jesus, our Creator is the way, the truth and the life. No one goes to the Father except through Him. 

This Page and also our Group is to promote the works of these human teachers of truth who are now active in the world and ministering to today's generation. We represent a religion open to all and without dogma or ceremony. A true religion,  the religion of the spirit, is identical to the religion lived, taught and demonstrated to the world by Our Creator.
 

It is also to promote the new 5th epochal revelations recently received from Divine Sons of God on earth and to disseminate these new teachings to all nations and to all peoples.

  
This Note will be continually updated with new information about the Good News of the promised, everlasting gospel and the plans of the Most Highs for the upliftment of the races of time into The Ages of Light and Life.

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,

Important Notice to anyone considering joining the Group "The Planetary Reserve Corps of Destiny"

114:7.1 The reserve corps of destiny consists of living men and women who have been admitted to the special service of the superhuman administration of world affairs. This corps is made up of the men and women of each generation who are chosen by the spirit directors of the realm to assist in the conduct of the ministry of mercy and wisdom to the children of time on the evolutionary worlds. It is the general practice in the conduct of the affairs of the ascension plans to begin this liaison utilization of mortal will creatures immediately they are competent and trustworthy to assume such responsibilities. Accordingly, as soon as men and women appear on the stage of temporal action with sufficient mental capacity, adequate moral status, and requisite spirituality, they are quickly assigned to the appropriate celestial group of planetary personalities as human liaisons, mortal assistants.

114:7.2 When human beings are chosen as protectors of planetary destiny, when they become pivotal individuals in the plans which the world administrators are prosecuting, at that time the planetary chief of seraphim confirms their temporal attachment to the seraphic corps and appoints personal destiny guardians to serve with these mortal reservists. All reservists have self-conscious Adjusters, and most of them function in the higher cosmic circles of intellectual achievement and spiritual attainment.

114:7.3 Mortals of the realm are chosen for service in the reserve corps of destiny on the inhabited worlds because of:

114:7.7 Each division of planetary celestial service is entitled to a liaison corps of these mortals of destiny standing. The average inhabited world employs seventy separate corps of destiny, which are intimately connected with the superhuman current conduct of world affairs. On Urantia there are twelve reserve corps of destiny, one for each of the planetary groups of seraphic supervision.

114:7.8 The twelve groups of Urantia destiny reservists are composed of mortal inhabitants of the sphere who have been rehearsed for numerous crucial positions on earth and are held in readiness to act in possible planetary emergencies. This combined corps now consists of 962 persons. The smallest corps numbers 41 and the largest 172. With the exception of less than a score of contact personalities, the members of this unique group are wholly unconscious of their preparation for possible function in certain planetary crises. These mortal reservists are chosen by the corps to which they are respectively attached and are likewise trained and rehearsed in the deep mind by the combined technique of Thought Adjuster and seraphic guardian ministry. Many times numerous other celestial personalities participate in this unconscious training, and in all this special preparation the midwayers perform valuable and indispensable services.

114:7.9 On many worlds the better adapted secondary midway creatures are able to attain varying degrees of contact with the Thought Adjusters of certain favorably constituted mortals through the skillful penetration of the minds of the latters’ indwelling. (And it was by just such a fortuitous combination of cosmic adjustments that these revelations were materialized in the English language on Urantia.) Such potential contact mortals of the evolutionary worlds are mobilized in the numerous reserve corps, and it is, to a certain extent, through these small groups of forward-looking personalities that spiritual civilization is advanced and the Most Highs are able to rule in the kingdoms of men. The men and women of these reserve corps of destiny thus have various degrees of contact with their Adjusters through the intervening ministry of the midway creatures; but these same mortals are little known to their fellows except in those rare social emergencies and spiritual exigencies wherein these reserve personalities function for the prevention of the breakdown of evolutionary culture or the extinction of the light of living truth. On Urantia these reservists of destiny have seldom been emblazoned on the pages of human history.

114:7.10 The reservists unconsciously act as conservators of essential planetary information. Many times, upon the death of a reservist, a transfer of certain vital data from the mind of the dying reservist to a younger successor is made by a liaison of the two Thought Adjusters. The Adjusters undoubtedly function in many other ways unknown to us, in connection with these reserve corps.

114:7.11 On Urantia the reserve corps of destiny, though having no permanent head, does have its own permanent councils which constitute its governing organization. These embrace the judiciary council, the historicity council, the council on political sovereignty, and many others. From time to time, in accordance with the corps organization, titular (mortal) heads of the whole reserve corps have been commissioned by these permanent councils for specific function. The tenure of such reservist chiefs is usually a matter of a few hours’ duration, being limited to the accomplishment of some specific task at hand.

114:7.12 The Urantia reserve corps had its largest membership in the days of the Adamites and Andites, steadily declining with the dilution of the violet blood and reaching its low point around the time of Pentecost, since which time reserve corps membership has steadily increased.

114:7.13 (The cosmic reserve corps of universe-conscious citizens on Urantia now numbers over one thousand mortals whose insight of cosmic citizenship far transcends the sphere of their terrestrial abode, but I am forbidden to reveal the real nature of the function of this unique group of living human beings.)

114:7.14 Urantia mortals should not allow the comparative spiritual isolation of their world from certain of the local universe circuits to produce a feeling of cosmic desertion or planetary orphanage. There is operative on the planet a very definite and effective superhuman supervision of world affairs and human destinies.

114:7.15 But it is true that you can have, at best, only a meager idea of an ideal planetary government. Since the early times of the Planetary Prince, Urantia has suffered from the miscarriage of the divine plan of world growth and racial development. The loyal inhabited worlds of Satania are not governed as is Urantia. Nevertheless, compared with the other isolated worlds, your planetary governments have not been so inferior; only one or two worlds may be said to be worse, and a few may be slightly better, but the majority are on a plane of equality with you.

114:7.16 No one in the local universe seems to know when the unsettled status of the planetary administration will terminate. The Nebadon Melchizedeks are inclined to the opinion that little change will occur in the planetary government and administration until Michael’s second personal arrival on Urantia. Undoubtedly at this time, if not before, sweeping changes will be effected in planetary management. But as to the nature of such modifications of world administration, no one seems to be able even to conjecture. There is no precedent for such an episode in all the history of the inhabited worlds of the universe of Nebadon. Among the many things difficult to understand concerning the future government of Urantia, a prominent one is the location on the planet of a circuit and divisional headquarters of the archangels.

114:7.17 Your isolated world is not forgotten in the counsels of the universe. Urantia is not a cosmic orphan stigmatized by sin and shut away from divine watchcare by rebellion. From Uversa to Salvington and on down to Jerusem, even in Havona and on Paradise, they all know we are here; and you mortals now dwelling on Urantia are just as lovingly cherished and just as faithfully watched over as if the sphere had never been betrayed by a faithless Planetary Prince, even more so. It is eternally true, “the Father himself loves you.”
