The Stelle Group has initiated a program
for persons interested in the community of Stelle and its role in the Great
Plan of the Brother-hoods. The new program is called Guest Week. During Guest
Week you may visit the community of Stelle for one full week as a
participant-observer of the affairs of the community. The first Guest Week is
scheduled for July 2-8. The next one planned for this year is September 3-9. The purpose of Guest Week is to enable those
persons who are seriously considering membership in The Stelle Group to
become better acquainted with life at Stelle—with the people who are
committed to the furthering of the Great Plan, with the philosophy upon which
the community is founded, and with Richard Kieninger, the author of The
Ultimate Frontier and founder of the community. Different activities are planned for you
during Guest Week. Seminars on various aspects of the philosophy will be
conducted. There will be work sessions with members of The Stelle Group on
various projects. Mothers will work with their young children in the Learning
Centers. You will participate in any community events that may be
occurring. You will stay in the homes of members of The Stelle Group. Some readers of The Ultimate Frontier
develop an exaggerated view of the requirements for becoming a member of The
Stelle Group. Your participation in Guest Week will enable you to experience
the sense of community created thus far and to decide whether you desire to
share in it with us. If you are considering applying for membership in The
Stelle Group, and would like to have your interview with the Membership
Committee during Guest Week, you may submit your application along with your
reservation for Guest Week. If you have a family and are applying for
membership, please be sure that your entire family is present for the
interview. Costs for Guest Week include your room
and board and are as follows: One Person — $200.00 One Couple — $350.00 Each Child — $ 25.00 If you are interested in attending the
Guest Week, please fill out the application on page 5. ____________________________ Please read these questions once through
carefully, then go back through them, answering each one as honestly and
sincerely as you can: * Have you read The Ultimate Frontier at least once through? * Can you, at this time in your life, accept
the philosophical tenets of reincarnation, karma, and cause and effect as
outlined in The Ultimate Frontier? * Do you accept personal responsibility for
the condition of your life? * Do you feel an affinity for the Great Plan
of Melchizedek and the Brotherhoods? * Would you like to see a civilization
develop based on the philosophical concepts outlined in The Ultimate Frontier? * Would you like to actively participate in
the construction of that civilization? * Do you or would you like to regard work as
a joy rather than a drudgery? * Do you think you have attained or would
like to attain a fair degree of balance between the idealistic, practical,
and mental aspects of your being? * Are you willing to refine that balance by
consciously striving to improve those aspects which are weaker than the
others? * Are you willing to consciously incorporate
the Twelve Great Virtues into your life? * Do you have or are you developing a
“prosperity consciousness”? * Do you seek to do good works and to perform
excess service to others? * Are you willing to work as a member of a
team of workers? * Do you ascribe to straight-forward,
up-front, honest communication? * Are you open to and considerate of the
ideas and opinions of others? * Can you maturely support government by
referendum and majority rule? * Do you or are you willing to take good care
of your body and your health by reasonable diet and exercise as well as by
positive thinking? If you find that your answer is already
yes to most of these questions, or that you want to be able to say yes, we
would like to invite you to participate in a Guest Week in the community of
Stelle. If you’re interested in attending the Guest Week scheduled for July
2-8 or September 3-9, fill in the following information and send it to The
Stelle Group. If you are unable to attend the week but would be interested in
attending another time, please write The Stelle Group and indicate when you
could attend. |
