The radio broadcast will be shut down at 9am ET / 6am PST to be moved to its new home, two miles away. Once our new service is turned on, I will restart the broadcast.
When Will the Trustee Election Results Be Communicated?
According to our bylaws:
“Voting shall close fourteen days prior to the regular or special election meeting. The candidate receiving the highest number of votes up to the number of Trustees to be elected shall be eligible to serve on the board. Results of the election shall be published to the current Member Board at the election meeting and provided to the membership immediately thereafter.”
In other words, the results of the election will be shared with the Member Board of Trustees at their next meeting on July 17. I will notify the nominees regarding the results immediately following the meeting. I will share the results with members as part of the Daily Update email the next morning, on July 18.
A total of 61 members participated by voting in this election. I totaled the votes and provided them to Barbara Deurwaarder, our Secretary of the Board of Directors, who verified the results. Although the results were very close, two new members have been elected to the Member Board of Trustees. I look forward to sharing more information with you on July 17.

You Still Have Time to Watch This Month's Movie, "Peaceful Warrior"
Join us for Movie Watcher’s Group on Sunday, May 28 at 8 pm ET / 5 pm PT. This month’s movie is “Peaceful Warrior.” Dan Millman (Scott Mechlowicz) is a driven gymnast who dreams of winning gold in the Olympics in this transformational spiritual drama based on Dan Millman’s autobiographical novel The Way of the Peaceful Warrior. This movie highlights the relationship between a student and a wise teacher. Dan’s mind is filled with a constant barrage of thoughts and emotions that keep him in a state of agitation. His teacher, Socrates (Nick Nolte) sees that this college student has kept his body in fine shape but has not done much inner work. He wants Dan “to take out the trash,” all the stuff that passes through his head that he doesn’t need.
The movie is available on Amazon, Itunes, Vudu and Youtube Red. Watch the movie with Spirit, then come and share your insights with the group. Guided movie watching allows us to experience our world and practice forgiveness without leaving our living room! It is recommended you join with Spirit in meditation or prayer prior to viewing the movie and then journal after. Watch for common themes, for characters you like or don’t like, for situations that seem to cause discomfort or joy. Contemplate what your reactions to the movie tell you about your beliefs about yourself and the world you live in. Bring what you learn back to the group and learn from others’ movie watching experience as well. Enjoy the movie and don’t forget to watch your mind!

It's Time to Nominate New Members to the Member Board of Trustees
This summer we will elect two new members to the Member Board of Trustees.
What is the Member Board of Trustees?
The Member Board of Trustees is the leadership team that works with the President-Minister and Vice President-Minister to manage Awakening Together. They are responsible for all aspects of leadership including drafting policies and procedures, leading subcommittees, addressing issues and more. The Member Board of Trustees currently meets via Google+ on the first and third Monday of each month from 7:45-9:30pm ET. You can find out what they discuss and decide at these meetings by perusing their meeting minutes.
Who can be nominated to the Board of Trustees?
Our constitution requires a person to be a member of Awakening Together for 2 years in order to serve on the Board of Trustees.
How do I nominate someone for the Board of Trustees?
You may nominate yourself or someone else to the Member Board of Trustees. If you are nominating someone else, it is a good idea to get his/her permission first.
To nominate a person, contact us and let us know who you’d like to nominate.
All nominations received by June 5 will be put on the nominee list as long as the nominee has been a member for at least 2 years. Note: The earlier a nomination is received, the greater the nominee’s chance of making it to the ballot.
Are all nominees put on the ballot?
No. In order for a nominee to be placed on the ballot, 10% of the membership must support the nomination. If there aren’t enough nominees who receive support from 10% of the membership, the Member Board of Trustees will select nominees for the ballot.
How does a nominee get support from the membership?
Each nominee will be listed under the News & Docs menu on the Awakening Together website.
Members are encouraged to visit that link regularly between May 22 and June 5. When you see a nominee that you want to support, contact us and let us know who you’d like to support.
How many people can I nominate or support?
Each member may nominate or support up to two nominees since there are two seats available to be filled on the Member Board of Trustees. (For example, if you nominate one person you can support another person. You have a total of two voting credits to use in the nomination/support process.)
How are nominees elected to the Member Board of Trustees?
Each nominee that receives support from 10% of the membership or from the Member Board of Trustees will be placed on the ballot if he/she accepts the nomination. The ballot will be sent to all members via email on June 16. You will have until July 3 to place your vote. The two nominees receiving the most votes during the ballot process will be elected to the Member Board of Trustees.
How can I get to know the nominees before I vote?
Each nominee who accepts the nomination will be asked to provide a photo and biography. These will be posted on the Awakening Together Website under the News & Docs menu. In addition, nominees are invited to share a little about themselves at the Member Meeting on June 11 at 8pm ET.
Who is currently on the Member Board of Trustees?
You can see the list of current Trustees along with pictures and brief biographies under the About menu on the Awakening Together website,
I still have questions.
If you still have questions, contact us.
