On the
campus of
the University of Healing, Church of God Unlimited, Absolute Monastery and more, are 104 acres with
miles of roadways throughout the campus. Touring these miles of
roadways are monks, staff, students and friends. It is a long walk,
but it is more fun using the four golf carts which buzz along at a
maximum of 15 miles an hour on the level—however, the electric carts
get going down hill and can go rather fast.
Campus
monks find the carts excellent for flitting about the Monastery, five
houses and six retreats. There are always cleaning supplies to be
shifted from one site to another, mail to be picked up at the mail
center, books to be shipped from the archives, magazines and pamphlets
to be sorted and sent to those asking for them all over the world. It
is in all a very busy hub and filled with exciting activities.
During
our Christmas seminar we had four children present from Las Vegas and
Switzerland. From ages 8 to 13, the boys took to the golf carts with
their parents and friends to tour the campus and experience driving
first hand in a real machine. Each practiced until they were perfect
and earned their University School of Driving certificate announcing
they are master golf cart drivers.
Four
carts and four young men. They became the chauffeurs of the campus.
They were ready at their “post” eager to take the next passenger
to wherever they were going. Often taking them somewhere where they
were not going. But all in the best of fun.
Evidence
of being ourself and having fun. This is what life is all about.
