A special message concerning Dr. Tim Trader

 

Dear Living Nutrition - Healthful Living International e-list member, The following is a special message from Laurie Masters regarding dear friend and “brother”, Dr. Tim Trader.Please take a moment to consider forwarding this message to others who might wish to offer their prayers and support.Blessings,This message is being distributed among friends, organizations, and communities who may be acquainted with our dear friend and brother, Timothy Trader. If you have met Tim, you know he devotes his life to helping people live healthier, happier lives through love, peace, conscious living, and simple raw-food nutrition. As an Essene minister, a founding governor of Healthful Living International, and in private health consultations, Tim has had a profoundly positive, loving impact on everyone he encounters. He calls those with whom he consults "health partners," in acknowledgment that his sole role is to inspire others, without judgment, to trust their body's innate wisdom and make their own decisions for health and healing. With compassion, kindness, and deep presence, he gives of himself unconditionally, offering his guidance on a donation basis so that all may be helped. For the past 15 months, Tim has worked as fasting supervisor at the Tanglewood Wellness Center in Maryland, assisting scores of guests to heal and rejuvenate through deep physiological, emotional, and sensory rest. As you may know, Tim has been serving humanity in these ways for more than a decade without incident. Tim now needs our help. The State of Maryland is falsely prosecuting him for practicing medicine without a license and other related matters. He faces the possibililty of several years in jail, a prospect particularly daunting for a dedicated raw-food vegan. We have set up a legal defense fund for Tim and we urgently request your donation, large or small, to mount his defense. Vibrant Life, a private, ecclesiastical corporation sole, has volunteered to handle this fund. At the conclusion of these legal proceedings, any funds not used for Tim‚s defense will be returned to those who donated them on a pro rata basis. If you are moved to do so, we would be deeply grateful for your generous donation payable to "Vibrant Life," to Vibrant Life ATTN: Elchanan, Presiding Chaplain c/o 707 Continental Circle, #335Mountain View, California 94040 Please write "Donation" in the memo field, and enclose a note indicating that your donation is for the "Tim Trader legal defense fund." Please include your contact information on a note requesting an acknowledgment letter from the ministry if you plan to claim your donation as a deduction on an income tax return. Vibrant Life will send you appropriate documentation acknowledging your donation. IMPORTANT: An initial retainer must be forwarded to Tim's attorney on September 22. Therefore, your soonest response would be most gratefully appreciated. (Please feel free to send something now and more later, as additional funds will be needed after September 22, as well).If you have questions, you may contact me at LaurieM Your prayers and other support are a great comfort at this time, when we have only the kindness of others to count on. In the words of Tim Trader, "May peace and love fill your heart and life."Laurie Masters Cofounder, South Bay Living Food Community This is a Living Nutrition - Raw Passion - Healthful Living International e-list message.Please do not reply to Zinester.
