Hi Sprawled, Good to hear from you again. Hows life treating you?
I got hit by a tree branch two weeks ago and woke up two days later in the hospital (It was a hard hit) I have been having really massive headaches since so I sure could use some good 11th corps prayers (They are powerful medicine).
ah. well, my knowledge is pretty limited, but i don't know of any 11th who are still in. though i know a few who might as well be!
out there--HIT BY A TREE BRANCH AND WOKE UP TWO DAYS LATER? are you all right? what is your doctor saying? (and how do you get hit by a tree branch?) hope you're feeling better!
Just found this website wow quite interesting 11th corps here. didn't finish. left in my interim year. hadn't seen or heard from anyone in the way in years. now and again i want to drive to HQ to look 'round . heard it's not really welcoming any more.still In ohio here.
this site is brand new to me and i can't get enough. names, faces (sorta),places all comming back to me.
Whenever the way comes up (my family were involved) mixed emotions follow. I've stuffed so much of my experiences down deep for many reasons. not wanting to face them i guess. My only "way" contact is my mom. So often she'll call and tell me something she's recently learned and always adds "I no longer think the way had it right"... on this topic or that. I would always challenge her "new" belief. The Way opened the book for me so it's hard sometimes to let go of a long held belief.
it's INTERESTING to read up on others thoughts, feelings, experiences . etc. on subjects that were a big part of my life. Hard reading at times.
I became a "working" christian (actively seeking knowledge and spiritual growth) at a twig fellowship at the age of 16 or so ('70s). the way was sort of my intro to God. I will always be grateful for that.
Hearing all that happened in the latter years is so very weird for me. sorta shaking the foundation of what i thought was truth. Almost like hearing you're adopted or something similar. the V.P. sex things ,for example, SOOOOO hard to believe although I know it really happened. there was an incident on my first wow year. didn't really know what happened for sure till i (just this week) read about it from the source ,my wow sister, on a related website. "marsha's story" putting pieces together from stories i've heard and what i witnessed ,I knew thats what must have happened. the wow year got REAL interesting after vp's visit. now I know for sure. I so loved that man for so long(please, nobody pounce on me for that) wow "what a long,strange trip it's been"
I felt the same way you did. It was hard for me to believe that all this went on, and remember this was Pre-Cialis days. I'm sorry I still don't believe all but I am willing to listen with an open ear to anyone and I always try not to judge, condemm or in any way defend or deny (unless it gets what I think is too too far out of hand. I'm glad you are here and having been reading the threads. there is a lot of gold in here.
Hey 11th.. Yesterday marked 24 years since our release. Happy Anniversary
how do you know the date??
i have no memory of our graduation. i remember the photo. i do, however, have a very vivid memory of getting my graduation assignment. perhaps because it was like a f!cking nightmare, complete with a grinning lcm right at my shoulder saying, "you know where that is? it's ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE COUNTRY!" (3000 miles from where i'd been "promised.") if i hadn't been standing on stage in front of the whole 11th, i'd have puked right then and there.
Simple, we got married on the 10th and we graduated two days prior on the 8th. Have you gone back to New York since you graduated or are you still in Oregon is it?
There's a competition for which corps gets on top...I'll do my part.
I wont change anything with my double post. But I'm curious. I vaguely remember from years ago hearing about a John White in the 11th or 10th. If so, I wonder if this is the same John White who was my Philly WOW roomie on my interim year 1978-79.
Well, to keep us on top I will stimulate us all with a trip down mammory lane.
Remember our graduating corps days? I'll never forget Micheal Fort standing up and telling us how spiritually mature we were becasue here we were at Emporia for our days. He said his graduating Corps days started with a raft trip down the colorado river. I will never forget turning to Larry R and whispering to him "damm. I wanted a raft trip"
AH, the graduating corps days we had, who else was disappointed?

Hey 11th. I am more or less just hanging around here any more. It's too phuck3d up out in some of the other areas and with all the shots that are taken. I am retreating as I really don't much want to be a part of it anymore. I have too much to do right here in Grand Rapids so why mess around on a internet scale

Well, The tree and my head had a Branch Meeting
The wind blew it back and it made full contact with my head when it swung back. The rest is forgotten history.
