In loving memory -
Better Life- Jail Ministry - Mission on the Move
The Beloved life a a grand mother was celebrated today in a simple ceremony held in the
Wichita mountains by the holy men of the Tejas Indians. This is to celebrate the lives and
the passing through such lives as the ones before. The Great Chief and his court, gathered
in the secret place to call on the Creator to answer the prayers of the first people of
Texas. As the marathon continued, they danced throughout the night, through several
tornadoes and hail storms, and inclimate weather.
In memory of those grandmothers and grandfathers, we call to the reflection of their
pathway. The Garza Family still mourns for their son, as he was unable to attend the
services held in '06 in Tyler Texas, as F Schlaepfer is currently incarcerated in
Laurinburg, NC (Scotland Correctional Facility). It is unlikely that he will ever get out.
Prayers are requested for him in this time, and we ask for strength and support. Letters
may be sent to F Schlaepfer can be sent to the tribal nation's PO box through Better Life
Ministries. These letters will be screened and forwarded to the correctional facility by
the tribal nation. New bibles with soft paper back covers, white turkey and natural turkey
feathers are requested as well as clear plastic cigar boxes.

Through my love "I will wait for you at the gates with the Creator" on the wing tips of a
hawk. Though I pray that may our kingdom be hidden from the ones whom seek to destroy us,
yet may those that truly seek it find the riches of life that they seek. May they come to
know the Creator through his son the Christ. Through my love, may you come to know His
mysteries and wonders, through such may you grow and bear good fruit. May your heart soar
justly as a hawk, through my love thus I have left such a gifts and treasures for you.
