Richard Kent had a stroke this morning and has passed away. If you come to the Tucson Psychic and Healing Fair or the Healing and Restoration Community Church you would have seen him along with his wife Herme Kent. Richard was key to the sucess of the fair. He picked up the tables and set them up and then broke them down. He did the advertising outside. He also sold drinks and snack.

Please join me in praying for Richard and his family. A good man was called home today and we will sorely miss him.

I’m back! Thank you all for your prayers and best wishes! I could literally feel them and the waves of healing that they brought. I just left Northwestern Hospital in Chicago. I got off the plane and had super high blood pressure, dizziness and headaches. Went to Northwestern Hospital and I got every test that an older guy with Medicare and good insurance could get.
Severe headaches on my left side. Coincidentally the same side had my head got hit in the car accident where I got t-boned and hit my head on October 5, 2025. Talking to my lawyer about this.
I have a bone that is pinching my blood flow to my brain on the left side. But my brain just went past that blockage and built new blood vessels around that occlusion. So I now have sufficient blood flow to continue to operate in my life.
I was released from hospital after three days and feeling tired but getting well every day.
Just because I was in bed, I still managed to do 3 readings with two nurses and a doctor. And also blessed one nurse in the “Baptism in the Holy Spirit “that I do. Please lets pray now for Janelle and her son Daniel and her deceased husband John.
My blessings to you all- Love Richard

Memorial Day feels very somber this year. It’s hard to avoid the obvious question—what would your family member who fought for the U.S. against Hi**er, against Mussolini, against Japan in World War II think about handing over the keys to the country to Donald Trump? Did they serve so Trump could line his own pocketbook and those of family members? So he could tear down the East Wing of the White House to build a ballroom with ever-changing justifications? So he could start a war with Iran in which American lives were lost, and for what?

All important questions. Questions that anyone who supports Trump should be forced to answer as we honor the people who served. Memorial Day is dedicated to mourning and honoring military personnel who died while serving in our Armed Forces, the people Trump has called “suckers” and “losers”. It’s hard for me to imagine a veteran who would believe that Trump’s authoritarian, self-serving approach to government is the right path for this country.

No newsletter tonight beyond that question, which I have been turning over in my mind all week. I’ve been on airport pick-up duty this evening, and I’m going to go ahead and turn in now; there will be plenty to write about in the coming week. I know what my Grandfather’s answer would have been—he would have been out on the streets protesting from the get-go, a proud Navy veteran who imparted his love for this country to his children and grandchildren. We’ll be honoring him on Monday as we gather with friends and family. He would have found lots of reasons to celebrate America, even in this difficult season, including these two goofy dogs who he would have loved and this gorgeous cake one of his grandaughters made for the weekend.

Cake!
Even as you enjoy yourself over the long weekend, don’t be afraid to ask people the hard questions, like how would the people we honor on Memorial Day have viewed Donald Trump? It may make people uncomfortable. But that’s better than giving a pass to the president who wants to use taxpayer money to reward people who fomented an insurrection to try and keep him in office after he lost an election. It’s important that we speak plainly about where we are and where our country is right now.

We’re in this together,
