Kit, Kit, Who's Got The Kit?

Patients young Grasshopper, it is comming.

::heavy sigh::

yes, you're right. I've already apologized for my general surplus of enthusiasm for my kits arrival. I just can't describe to you all how supremely excited I am about getting started fully.

I wholeheartedly appreciate the effort taken by Roger and Ferre in keeping this ministry afloat. That's why I donated an extra 20 bucks a week or two back in addition to the 200 I already gave March 5th. I really beleive in this effort and have already made 3 pilgrimages to Amsterdam to study and learn more about cannabis history, mythology, and practical day religious applications.

I want to learn so that I may help and maybe help educate others.

I've already filed with ULC and sent in my new Ministry's information. It's called Gaea Ministries "Deeper Spirituality Through Ethobotanicals." So far I've got 5 friends already signed up with both THC and ULC and we are all EAGERLY waiting for this kits arrival. Perhaps a bit too eagerly.

I just wonder if there wouldn't be a way for some dedicated, responsible, and motivated ministry member to take some of the load off of Roger and Ferre by helping out with kits. Roger could email such a person and they could be responsible for packing and shipping the kits so Roger wouldn't have to physically do so. What do you think? I wonder if eliminating these two month periods between donation and arrival of the promised kit wouldn't lend the ministry a new level of respectability and proffessionalism. Perhaps people would buy more kits if they got them quickly...perhaps.

Thoughts?

Further, this person could really help the ministry generate more influx of donations by setting up a ministry store, similar to that of ULC. The store probably should avoid selling doctorates but all sorts of accessories could be supplied. Everything from business cards to t-shirts; literature to ministerial supplies.

I know I spent like 250 bucks getting all set up with ULC. I bought ID's, a press pass, a title, some certificates, and some different status items (such as monastary member, for those who care) . If I had the option to buy some things from THC I certainly would do so. Seems like we're missing a great way to attract donation dollars.

Maybe this could help the ministry operate "in the black" instead of continualy siphoning off of Rog and Ferre.

HAZAH!!!

Roger sent me a message today telling me the kit had shipped today and gave me the Priority Mail ID number as well.

MANY MANY MANY thanks for your continued effort and patience in putting up with one of your newest, but arguable most fanatical, pastor. I greatly look forward to the future of this fledgling ministry you helped inspire out here in the depths of rural Texas (land of the feared, vile, and generally loathed George Bush Jr. ::immediate gag reflex: .

We'll win this fight and I think this is a great way to start!

It came!!!

As I thumb through this, I can't help but be totally floored by the time that was put into it. Roger actually underlined things important and worthy of attention himself. The in depth information really breaks down how and why the Ministry works. I am entirely impressed and further ensured that my choice to join this organization was a good one.

HUGE amounts of respect.

ps. one question: do all membership cards say practiconer and some say minister? how would one get such a card? Just curious. Thought I was a minister by ordering 200 dollar kit. Please explain when you have time. Once again, WAY TO GO!
