Follow Me Conference

What a fun filled, exciting few weeks it has been for the Cowperthwaite clan! We went to Walpole, NH for the Follow Me Conference from July 16-19. The Steve and Mandy Pena family were gracious hosts for our family, and their home provided a beautiful venue for the conference. The Pena home is the current meeting place for Berean Gospel Assembly, a young church in the area. This body of believers were quite accomodating of all who attended the conference, with about a dozen staying in the Pena home and many more being housed and hosted by others in the local body. Read more from Mark Coperthwaite.

What wonderful love they showed to Keziah. Oh...what joy Keziah's shows to receive her custom made English book!

Mandatory Vaccinations — How To Minimize Harmful Effects

The onslaught of media coverage about swine flu has decreased somewhat in recent months, but stories still pop up regarding its effects around the world and fears of health officials that it will become a “killer epidemic.” All this despite the facts indicating that swine flue is, in reality, the result of manufactured hysteria designed to justify mass vaccinations. The evidence for labeling swine flue as a public health menace simply isn’t there. Consider the fact that influenza deaths in the U.S. average 30,000 annually, while only 117 fatalities worldwide have been “officially” linked to H1N1 (swine flu). It is obvious that there is an agenda behind all this hype. One of the biggest fears is that legislation will be passed making vaccinations for swine flu and other “diseases” mandatory.
In a fascinating article in last month’s Baltimore Chronicle, author Stephen Lendman(a) educates us as to why the powers-that-be are pushing for mandatory vaccinations, some of the unsavory history of vaccine hazards, and why allowing these substances to enter our bodies is a very bad health choice.
Much has been written about the conspiracy between groups such as the World Health Organization (WHO), National Institutes of Health (NIH), the FDA, and pharmaceutical firms regarding vaccinations. Some in this network are seeking power and political control through manipulation, and see mass vaccines as a way to further accomplish their goals. The other major factor is money. Let’s face it: There is an enormous amount of it at stake, and Big Pharma stands to reap windfall profits if vaccines become mandatory.
In his article, Lendman discusses another very ominous aspect of the vaccine debate. One of the reasons given for the use of certain vaccinations is protection from chemical, viral, or bacterial warfare. Usage of experimental vaccines on members of the U.S. Military has been justified because of this reasoning, despite the known (and unknown) dangers of these untested drugs (Gulf War Syndrome is an excellent example). However, due to the components of some vaccines, particularly a substance called squalene which is found in almost all of the newer generation vaccinations, the administration of these chemicals could itself be a form of bioterrorism. When injected directly into the body squalene has been linked to debilitating autoimmune diseases that cause the body to turn on itself in the form of arthritis, lupus, fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis, and other conditions. Could it be that one of the purposes of pushing these unnecessary and harmful vaccine programs is to keep the financially huge “sick care industry” alive and well?
Will Vaccines Soon Be Mandatory?There are some things going on that might indicate this is the plan. Certain measures have been passed and others are in the works that may very well be setting us up for mandatory vaccinations. Several states are now forcing children to be vaccinated with increasingly large numbers of chemicals before enrolling in school or day care. The Military is also ramping up for more shots, many of which are experimental, with little or no data to support their safety or effectiveness. Laws have been passed that allow the FDA to expedite approval of vaccines without adequate testing in the face of a “medical emergency,” a term that is very poorly defined. (The manufacturers are also protected from potential liability, interestingly enough.) The next step is to convince the public that “preventative” vaccines are needed to protect us all from scary diseases (many of which do not really exist!) They would rather intimidate the American people with fear and let them choose to line-up to be vaccinated, but making it mandatory is a reality that may possibly occur, with those who resist being branded as unpatriotic troublemakers that must be brought under control for the good of us all.
“Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.” - Benjamin Franklin
Protection From Vaccines
If it comes down to submitting to forced vaccinations, there are steps you can take to support your health despite exposure to these toxins. The most important thing to remember is to keep your immune system (digestive tract) as strong as possible by pursuing a lifestyle that includes an organic diet heavy on a variety of fruits and vegetables, healthy fats, plenty of pure water, sunshine, stress reduction and adequate exercise and sleep.
1) Homeopathic intervention is also recommended. Homeopathy is a concept of “like cures like” that introduces a minute amount of a disease-causing substance with the result being development of immunity to the illness by the body. One particular type of homeopathic remedy is called a nosode, and has been used extensively in veterinary applications as an alternative to traditional vaccines like rabies and others that are toxic to the animals. Studies have also indicated success at protecting humans both from illnesses and from the hazards of traditional vaccines. Homeopathy is a very useful tool that can be used to combat the effects of vaccinations if it gets to the point in this country that our health freedoms are so battered that we lost the legal right to refuse vaccines. Do your research and decide if this is something to have on-hand for your family.
2) Performing a heavy metal cleanse after any type of vaccination can help the body to rid itself of harmful chemicals and metals that are in many vaccines. Even children can perform a heavy metal cleanse safely and effectively.
3) Zeolite is an excellent choice for removing heavy metals and toxins. I prefer to use Zeolite that has been naturally “bound” and absorbed directly into the molecular structure of fulvic acid, making it easily and completely accepted or bio-available to the human body.
4) Chlorella stimulates the activity of T-cells and macrophages by increasing interferon levels, thus enhancing the immune system’s ability to combat foreign invaders whether bacteria, viruses, chemicals or foreign proteins. Chlorella is a powerful detoxification aid for heavy metals and pesticides.
5) While performing cleanses and detoxifying from heavy metals and chemical toxins, it is imperative to keep your liver supported and your digestive tract clean. I recommend an organic whole-herb, alcohol-free tincture called LivaPure for liver support and detoxification. For digestive tract cleansing, Pure Vegan Mag O7 is an oxygen-based entire digestive tract cleanser that I recommend and use personally. Be sure to use a good spore-bearing probiotic during and after any type of cleanse.
Most importantly, do not allow FEAR or unfounded scenarios control your thoughts. Decisions that are made under fear are usually regretted later. Put together a plan for your family and include products in your natural medicine cabinet that will address heavy metal and chemical cleansing, liver support and digestive tract cleansing. Being prepared is ALWAYS a wise choice! Author: Dr. Loretta Lanphier, ND, CN, HHP, CH

We have been programmed...

...by the medical community and the media to believe that everyone – children and adults -- will become sick, and likely die, unless they are vaccinated. This explains why not vaccinating can be unfathomable to new parents who are unreasonably terrified of what were considered normal childhood illnesses only a few decades ago.
