MEREDITH BAXTER’S PROFILE
ABOUT ME
Facebook & C.R.A.P. Inc. In the process of creating websites for the meredith new schools, C.R.A.P. Inc., the College of C.R.A.P. MERE MEREDITH and friends - (e-mag) and our personal business Baxter Regional Services, Michaels electrical contracting business. Meredith’s schools open on the 21st August. I am always trying to balance time between facebook (since 6/7), hubby, housework, catching up with family members, close friends, and God. I love time out with my precious Sootie, (my pet black cat) and Tara our 52kg ridgeback x mastiff. Cheeky, Sootie’s mother is the matriach of the animals in this house.
I am developing new outreach programs, and methods of research and reporting in varied areas of mental illness and well being. We are also developing a spiritual outreach and visitor programs to give support in all and matters pertaining to and for God and his cosmos. This has lead to the creation, and soon to be opened College of Cosmology, Religion, Ancient History, & Philosophy. Currently offered courses are: God's Alphabet & Words. - The Class Of Meredith in the School of Divinity & Stewardship. All these educational facilities are open to all with no prerequisites except a belief in one God and spiritual equality amongst all his mortal children (personality creatures).; plus it's FREE is the School of Eternal Studies. These are online facilities that shall be supported by email, webinar and chat online. Otherwise I like to study and ponder (philosophize on) civilization’s evolutionary, and social progression through time and space. All the sciences interest and fascinate me. Psychology and mental illness care and treatment are a focus as is mental illness and spirituality links; especially during episodes of mania or psychosis... So I think and do a lot of God, GOD & God and everything said and thought about him now and in the past by everyone. Jesus and more Jesus (ditto the same). WHEN NOT GOD & personal studies I PUNT ON THE RACES ONLINE..... gallopers, trotters, and the dogs; but I only bet $1 each way so I will not lose my shirt just yet... Etymology and Cosmology are also particular interests and a focus of mine. I never get sick of any history at all.

FAVORITE QUOTES
The certainty of the God-knowing religionist should not be disturbed by the uncertainty of the doubting materialist; rather should the uncertainty of the unbeliever be mightily challenged by the profound faith and unshakable certainty of the experiential believer. [The Urantia Book, p. 1140, par. 5]
Many who are inwardly sure about God fear to assert such feelings of certainty because of the multiplicity and cleverness of those who assemble objections and magnify difficulties about believing in God. [The Urantia Book, p. 1126, par. 6]
The wisdom of the world is not necessary to an exercise of saving faith in eternal realities. [The Urantia Book, p. 1127, par. 6]
When reason once recognizes right and wrong, it exhibits wisdom; when wisdom chooses between right and wrong, truth and error, it demonstrates spirit leading. [The Urantia Book, p. 1142, par. 1]
Happiness and joy take origin in the inner life. You cannot experience real joy all by yourself. [The Urantia Book, p. 1220, par. 6]
What you begin in time you will assuredly finish in eternity--if it is worth finishing. [The Urantia Book, p. 1129, par. 8]
"Life is a mystery to be lived; not a problem to be solved".. [Soren Kierkegaard]
"Trust is the foundation that needs to be built; forget the emotions of suspicion and guilt."..[Meredith Baxter]
"IN GOD WE MUST TRUST".... [from my inner spirit]
We are a registered non-profit Association in Australia that among other services, offers free citizens advice, spiritual and mental health support, information, guidance, and research facilitation. We are also the benefactors and founders of the College of Cosmology, Religion, Ancient History. & Philosophy (C.R.A.P.), and its schools; School of Divinity & Stewardship; School of Eternal Studies. We are also the publisher and management of a new FREE electronic magazine titled - MERE MEREDITH and friends. The first issue is be released in Sept and shall be bilingual in parts. Websites are under construction but should be up by the end of Aug 2008.
I am the founder of a spiritual communion group facility which is called; THE
HOUSE OF GOD & SPIRITUAL COMMUNION ; www.mychurch.org/houseofgod
PLEASE CONSIDER JOINING US THERE or subscribing to my blog at www.mychurch.org/schoolofdivinity and adding me as a friend at that quite worthy site.
For our members, We aim to support and guide our members through any nominated creative endeavors, spiritual quests, missions, career path, or studies of any subjects of your own choosing that we can facilitate for youaccommodate and if we can’t we shall assist and on any subjesor choice.
We aim to assist our members in their personal developmental growth, self management, and spiritual maturation, which we then believe shall aid in their mental stabilization and harmony, their sense of well-being, plus add to their self-esteem, and self confidence which should decrease the likelihood of depression.
FOR PASTORAL CARE FOR MEMBERS WE HAVE:
REVEREND
DR. ANNE AKERS Ph.D.
Anne has a B.A in Metaphysical Ministry which included within it, her ordination as a Reverend. She holds a Masters Degree in Metaphysical Science and shall in the future be offering studies, God willing. On Metaphysics and Philosophy as is allowable by level of qualifications. At present we are immensely grateful for all her freely given spare time, that at present is so limited, as she nears the completion of her book titled: (Ssh! - Can’t tell this as it is not my place to), and unfortunately her husband has not been a well man for quite a period, so her time is precious and her days are long. Anne also tries to catch up with her children and grandchildren on the week-ends as they do not reside locally. She sounds so busy - YET wait, there is more! She also works at her own healing and counseling centre, 4 days a week. Anne has had many years of experience, training, and studying, to obtain her varied areas of accredited skills, techniques, and methodologies, so it is with this knowledge that I do so recommend her to you all. Her centre of anchoring light and healing is in the small regional township of Finch Hatton, (12kms east of us here at Netherdale), in this our beautiful Pioneer Valley, west of the Mackay Central Queensland Coast, Australia.
We aim to provide interesting stimuli, forums, research projects, workshops, support networks, emotional outreach, and emotional outlets, newsletters, plus a shopping avenue. Knowledge and know-how increases understanding, reasoning and decision making ability which in turn should increase an individual’s levels of patience and control within both their physical and mental environments which should bring less stress, mental anguish, or depression.
We shall help all members through qualified guidance and mentorship towards their full, and varied potentials; physically, mentally, spiritually and socially. We shall encourage studies on specific subjects; amongst these would be religious theologies and spiritual studies, cosmology, philosophies, mythology, and different cultures. We feel that studies of this nature may aid in their mental rehabilitation and stabilization. They can contribute to developing more balanced rational knowledge based thinking that shall then, hopefully, give the person a chance of finding inner peace within as fears and suspicions are quelled. These studies would also provide new and varied mental stimulations and possibly new and creative motivations for new actions, attitudes, changes in behaviors, and new disciplines such as time management, prioritizing, and goal setting are all gained through commitment to regular studies.
We aim to enlighten people that to be both a perpetual student, and a teacher, throughout their lives shall lighten the monotony of life by giving meaning and direction to it. It very often takes the loneliness out of life that is so often the cause of chronic depression.
We aim to cater to each individual’s personal selections; with students participating fully in the creation of a personalized curriculum or study units that is then matched to a suitable mentor, teacher, and/or study buddy. We shall also give guidance and support to help members to apply for accredited educational providers, institutions and/or other professionals as their needs be.
A long term aim of this Association is to establish a reputable accredited College that specializes in studies on cosmology, religion, ancient history, and philosophy. A savings fund shall be established for the purchase of a large tract of land to develop the establishment of the College and for other purposes of utilization for our members such as; the establishment of a retreat for rehabilitation treatments and programs; a place to recoup after illness; a place to seriously study, write or create; a place for communal recreation, camps, and family outings, conferences, and special events. Members would incorporate a non-profit trading Co-operative business entity for this venture. However until this aim materializes, we shall establish a free internet school for external part-time studies in the latter subjects in a personally designed curriculum.
We are currently an established free Citizens Advice Bureau for the general public and maintain a national toll free number hotline for such a service. We offer free citizens advice on matters and issues that relate to most areas of a persons life or home and freely give direction and advice on how to engage in arbitration, positive dialogues, positive attitudes, conciliation, and avenues of mediation.
A priority and focus of the association is to contribute funds, when viable and duly authorized, towards mental illness care, awareness, education, research, support groups, and learning programs. An association object is to dispel the fear and misconceptions held within the public, and established institutions towards persons that have a medically diagnosed mental illness.
We aim to contribute to the improvement of the quality and suitability of medical treatment, assessment procedures and diagnostic methods, psychiatric analysis or assessment, the daily management given and the rehabilitation methods and programs. We shall be focusing on research particularly in the area of links between mental illness and spiritual awakenings or emergence, and ways to deal with the spiritually confused during psychosis and manic episodes of behavior.

"IN GOD WE MUST TRUST"
Eungella National Park A world apart -
High in central Queensland’s Clarke Range lies rugged Eungella National Park, a 52000ha reserve sheltering animals and plants found nowhere else in the world. At the top of the Pioneer Valley, about 85km west of Mackay, Eungella (‘young-gella’) takes its name from the local Aboriginal word for ‘cloud’. Its cool, rainforested peaks are often shrouded in mist. But the park also stretches down to the foothills of the range, where lowland rainforest flourishes in tropical sun, and to the west, where open eucalypt forest has colonised drier areas. This drier vegetation has isolated Eungella’s rainforests for thousands of years, creating a fascinating evolutionary experiment. Walking tracks take you to forests, waterfalls, lookouts and Aboriginal cultural sites.
Visit for a day and enjoy a picnic, or camp and explore the park further. The park also offers wilderness opportunities for fit, experienced, well prepared visitors.Things to do Enjoy picnic areas at Broken River, Cedar Grove, Sky Window and Finch Hatton Gorge. Birdwatch. View platypus from boardwalks over Broken River. Spotlight at night when mammals are active. Visit the information centre at Broken River.Visitor facilities Campgrounds, walking tracks. Picnic areas at Broken River, Cedar Grove, Sky Window and Finch Hatton Gorge. Kiosk at Broken River.Best time to visit Eungella has distinct wet and dry seasons. Average yearly rainfall at Broken River is about 2000mm, with more than two-thirds falling from December to March. Summers are warm, with average maximum temperatures up to 30deg in January. Winters are cold to warm. Frosts are common from May to September, with temperatures down to -14º in August. September and October are ideal months to visit, when temperatures and rainfall are moderate. Slightly higher rainfalls in February and March offer a chance to see rainforest and fungi at their most lush, but guard against leeches attracted by wet weather.
