<div dir="auto">When our family was assigned to Australia, Garnet came to the Sydney House oftenon his circuit. I particularly recall one visit during the "take care of yourself campaign tines"where he raised the question, "What sustains you?" The question has returned to me many times, always he doing the asking, when I need to take care of my self most. Garnet Banks was a pure Spirit in this Global Spirit Movement. </div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Fri, Jun 29, 2018, 6:12 PM isobeljimbish--- via OE <<a href="mailto:oe@lists.wedgeblade.net">oe@lists.wedgeblade.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto">🌺🍁🦋🌹 David <div>Sincerely,</div><div>Isobel Bishop <br><br><div id="m_3237789615524257981AppleMailSignature">Sent from my iPhone</div><div><br>On 30 Jun 2018, at 7:01 am, David Yost via OE <<a href="mailto:oe@lists.wedgeblade.net" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">oe@lists.wedgeblade.net</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><blockquote type="cite"><div><div dir="auto">I am not sure why Garnet Banks was in Denver in 1969 or 1970, but he came and spoke to a group assembled at Evanston United Methodist Church and it changed the course if my life forever.
