Howdy! Could someone put up the info about the upcoming gathering in Illinois again? I seem to have deleted it. Thanks!

Here's a copy of Mindy's letter. Hope to see you there.

My Friends,
The annual gathering of lights, or like minded thinkers who have an interest in The Immortal, The Keys of Knowledge or just like-minded metaphysical thinkers is gathering near.

The date will be June 21-24th in Nauvoo, Illinois and there is still some space available so if you give Mindy a call you can make a reservation.

Mindy Burge is organizing it this year and I am including her invitation again for your consideration. JJ

Greetings all,

As many of you know, each year the members of the Keys of Knowledge group and readers of the Immortal, gather together for a few days. We're blessed to have JJ and Artie there in person sharing their wisdom with us beginning Saturday evening on June 21 through Tuesday the 24th. Some will be staying over to Wednesday the 25th and tour the area and visit with new and old friends.

Some of the subjects JJ will be covering will be: (1) The Seven Initiations on the path of liberation and the basic principles behind them (2) The Seven Rays by which all things are created. (3) What is a Master, how are they contacted and how is this position achieved? (4) What is White Magic as compared to Black Magic and the principles behind them? How to manifest your desires by using enlightened principles. (5) Since we will be in Nauvoo JJ will make some comments on it's founder, Joseph Smith and early Mormonism, as well as the role of the various religions of the world in relation to the progress of humanity. (6) The basic principles behind handwriting analysis as well as (A) An important key to health,(B) Strokes that reveal intelligence and (C) Important points to look for to discover compatibility. (7) Is astrology a true science? The most important things for a seeker to look for in his chart. (8) A meditation session where participants will look into past lives, past mysteries and then move into the future of civilization. (9) A healing session which the group has enjoyed at each gathering. (10) Songs, entertainment, fireside chats, talent search and whatever seems fun at the time. (11) Time between presentations to visit and make new friends. (12) Since we will be staying in one of the most interesting historic areas in the country we will tour a number of sites and hear the fascinating stories behind them.

The Gatherings of past years have been wonderful times filled with so many memories :-) This year's Gathering is quickly approaching. It'll be held in Nauvoo, IL.

The Nauvoo House is reserved for the Keys of Knowledge group from June 21-June 25. The house is dormitory type sleeping and has a full kitchen. The top two floors are bedrooms with bathrooms and showers on each of those floors. The second floor has a couple small bedrooms in addition to the large bedroom. They do not provide blankets or pillows so grab a sleeping bag, a pillow and a towel and washcloth when you pack. It's not a fancy place but rather a historical rustic building that's been kept basically the same as it was built. There is air conditioning and it is comfortable.

The dining room also serves as a meeting room where JJ will speak. In past years we've also done group healings, meditations and ceremonies. In the evenings we have social time to chat, dance, sing, bonfires, etc. We may have a talent contest this year if enough are interested.

The Nauvoo House is on the Mississippi River in a quiet area. There are numerous historical buildings in the immediate area which can be toured.

As far as airports, Quincy is the closest, about an hour from Nauvoo. Arriving anytime before 3 pm would be best. Let me know your arrival time and you'll be picked up.

JJ plans to depart early on the 24th but we have the place until the 25th. If you'd like to spend added time with others and explore the sights you're welcome to spend the extra day. They ask that we're out by noon so early flights work best for departing if you're leaving on the 25th. Late morning or afternoon is best on the 24th works if you prefer to leave that day.

If anyone is coming from out of the country and wants to fly into O'Hare, please contact me before booking your flight.

Cost: $175 per person to cover lodging, food and all the extras. Donations will be accepted if anyone cares to help another person attend.

Anyone planning to attend, please let us know as soon as you can. Space is limited so register early. If interested send an e-mail to Mindy at
