Greetings Friends!
Our community here in Bryson City is highly faith-based and we feel it is important to share a very powerful documentary that has recently been released to unveil the truth of why Jesus was killed over 2,000 years ago. Thank you to the creators of this film for your tremendous efforts to share the message Jesus came for--to return Heaven to Earth through non-violence and freedom for all beings.
Today, Jesus is alive in all of us who stand with the courage and awareness of the need to change ourselves--to be in alignment with our innate compassion for all of creation with no need for guilt, shame, or fear. Let's show love for Jesus through loving ourselves, each other, and all precious beings existing here as One with Earth.

To see the truth of where 99% of animals raised for "food" come from, you can also watch the life-changing film Earthlings for free on www.NationEarth.com and ask yourself: "How would Jesus feel about how animals are being treated?" How does your heart feel about how animals are being treated? Our human bodies are naturally designed ideally for frugivorous diets (fruits, vegetables, fungi, nuts, seeds). Why consume what is not only unnecessary for our diets, but also killing us through easily preventable disease?
We can heal the world...one by one...starting with ourselves.
Much Love,
Friends with the Forest
