Fall 2022: Watch Dr. Ted Ander’s Awaken AS Love Video
C and M Lifeline is a Co-Sponsor/Partner of the New Lovelight Campaign for Central American Reduction Transforming Root Causes in the Northern Triangle
With the guidance and support of Dr. Ted Anders, head of the C and M Lifeline nonprofit, a new nonprofit organization formed in November, 2021, in Central America with three other religious organizations in Central America to help reduce the irregular migration in the Northern Triangle region of Central America. The other three organizations are The Episcopal Church of Honduras, the Anglican Episcopal Church of El Salvador and The Episcopal Church of Guatemala.
One of the first developments of the project is the creation of the organization’s website promoting the project with a proclamation to be signed online, news and information on the project development and all the staff and volunteers involved, maps, special events and a donation page.

VISION for the LoveLight Campaign
To create and serve as the most effective inter-religious sacred and secular organizational force which coordinates and activates national, regional and global partners to steadily reduce irregular migration in the Northern Triangle of Central America… by supporting the security and integral development of these countries, based on the values of the Gospel and human rights.
MISSION
Reduce irregular migration of nationals from Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador through comprehensive care for migrants and potential migrants which includes implementation of: comprehensive tri-national social and economic development programs to prevent irregular migration; environmental restoration or adaptation of communities to climate change; implementation of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs); reduction of human trafficking and smuggling of migrants; contributing to public safety and sustainable security institutions.
Eliminating the 5 root causes of desperate migration:
• Violence/lack of security;
• Joblessness/endemic inescapable poverty;
• Corruption (i.e. mis-direction of allocated funds which could resolve causes 1, 2, 4 and 5);
• Climate change damage — inadequate food and water supplies;
• Lack of education access.

“The LifeLift Solutions Experience©” Leadership Development Seminars for Corporate, Community, and Government Leaders
Dr. Ted Anders developed the LifeLift Solutions Experience and initiated the related “LoveLight Campaign” movement in 2013. The 4- hour experience is provided to individuals and large groups of any faith path; or those holding an agnostic or atheist perspective. However, the experience seems to be most powerful and insightful for those who welcome or allow the assistance of the Holy Spirit at essential moments of self reflection in the seminar.
The method and experience open each of us to the existence of our highest and best Self—the True Masterful Self …the Self beyond the defensive ego we each built to manage and protect us from inherited and adopted family and societal pain. Indeed, the LifeLift Solutions Experience leads participants out of self-limiting beliefs into the experience of Self as the eternal unified consciousness which is experienced as an omniscient, omnipresent, radiant, field- of-infinite potential which has both the quality of Love and the nature of Light. The Christian community has historically referred to this experience as “the peace that passes all understanding.” Alternatively, this awareness space is often described in the “new age” community, possibly best elucidated by Eckhard Tolle, as “The Power of Now” in that place in which “Stillness Speaks.” Bhuddists often describe this space as the “radiant void.” Hindus refer to it as Nirvana. Whatever one feels most comfortable calling it, the important point is that one need not wait until physical death to awaken to it. This space/experience exists always within us/through us/as us and is the natural, loving, joyful creative essence of The Divine Pattern within each one of us. (For further insights, reference Dr. Ernest Holmes’ concepts presented in the book, “This Thing Called You.”)
Ted Anders in Belize, February 2018
Good morning from Belize! We are preparing today for an inspirational seminar with more than 100 teachers from around the country tomorrow. A highlight of yesterday’s tour of Belize City was visiting St. John’s College… A Jesuit school… which is still considered to be one of the best in the country. What an interesting intertwining of our families’ educational service histories. Today, our team’s multi-generational history of making a positive impact on teachers’ ability to lift up students to their highest and best potential carries on.
Poetry Book Tour with Tibetan Student Tenzin Sumdowa (aka Ten Phun), Author of Sweet Butter Tea
Our latest C and M project is to serve as the agent for Tenzin Sumdowa (aka Ten Phun), a Tibetan refugee student in India whom one of our C and M colleagues, Gale Yarbrough, has been supporting in Dharamsala for the past 6 years—since our last intensive involvement there with The Tibetan Children’s Villages. He has now written a moving book of poetry entitled, Sweet Butter Tea, which we arranged to have published through Dr. Ted Ander’s publisher, Square1, in New York (Publisher: Rudy Shur). It will be published in February, 2017
Gale Yarbrough and Dr. Ted Anders are arranging a poetry reading book tour in the US for late March through April and we are sponsoring his travel and expenses through C and M LifeLine. Dr. Bonnie Cramond at University of Georgia has agreed to host him for several days and arrange for him to speak at the university.
We are looking for additional hosts for Ten Phun on his book tour and are hoping that well wishers who are connected to universities may be able to help in hosting him, or perhaps in arranging a full scholarship to attend a U.S. university.
Please give generously to support this worthwhile work and tour by a Tibetan refugee writer.

The companies provide resources through C and M LifeLine, Inc. to help the Fijian Ministry for Women, Social Welfare and Poverty Alleviation to meet many of its goals in villages where the companies harvest medicinal botanicals.
