“Max and all, I have never experienced a more beautiful afternoon on the Mountain. I couldn’t keep up with our guests. Those of you who have not made a recent trip to the garden are missing the magic that (volunteer Gardener) Kathy (Lyles) and her crew have performed. The Garden is a magnificent combination of Max’s imagination and Kathy’s creativity. It gets more beautiful every day. There was much going on when arrived; the lot was full of vehicles and the grounds had people going in every direction. Randy greeted me, followed by Johnny, Jeff and Barbara were soon on the scene, Kathy and her crew never slowed down. I was so busy with trying to take care of that mob scene, I visited with fifteen guest groups, over forty individuals, and that does not include the Coming King Gang. Neither does it count the many more I did not have time to visit; there had to be close to a hundred roaming around the Garden and the mediation paths during my two hours on the Mountain. I had visitors from Maine, California, Oregon, Iowa, the Valley, Houston, New York, Odessa, many from San Antonio and the immediate area, Austin and the Metro-Plex were represented. It was a tourist day but a lot of people needed prayer; four young ladies from Schreiner College asked for prayer.”
