Chapter Eight / The Philisopical Life and Times by Peter "Christian" Romanowsky

(1) Pain is both a blessing and a curse, for there are far worse things than physical pain....(2) Never share your deepest secrets with anyone, but your family in Heaven and not even your spouse, brother or best friend or even ones  mother...(3) Pain like pleasure, nevertheless and only comes in waves... Never trust anyone a hundred percentv and not even oneself... (4) What I miss about my father the most, is him clearing his throat at night or a while laughing or coughing and watching television, it's just to know that I have a father no matter how mean and contemptible... (5) This life is not the destination, for its the journey... life is a testing ground to see who will reign in the next life and who will be a servant...(6)

Every race has beautiful people in it and every race has ugly people also...(7)  Everyone is born ignorant and the hardest thing for a man to do, is to love ignorant people or their ignorance, through no fault of their own and for nobody knows everything except the Creator, except for one thing one can tell him a joke that he has never heard... (8) For I would rather be God's Jester in His Court for the Jester is the one that comes closest to God's face... (9) God did not create us to be robots, yes men or automatons or puppets, but as His children and born of God and share the same divine nature of creativity... (10) There is no darkness so great as to not have a spot of light and there is no light so bright, in this life without a spot of dark... There is no contest between light and darkness in the universe, for Darkness can never put out the light and Light can put out the darkness...There is no greater power than love, when mixed with Justice and mercy, to the penitent... When Heaven and Earth cease, all that will be left in the universe will be love, some may find it the long way and some may find it the short way and some may not ever find it at all... Hatred is like a cancer that eats one up when after it first feels so good and right and ends in pain and suffering and hatred of oneself... Nakedness is close to Godliness, when one has no guilt or shame...God does not produce cats and dogs, but produces children... There is nothing broken in this world, that heaven can't fix in this life, or the next...A clsy pot is worthless until it is put into the fire and hardened....The appetite for food is stronger than the appetite for sex and he who can over come this appetite, has overcome all... The next thing to making love a beautiful woman is to be sailing a boat.... the Creator gave us omnivorous teeth, so one will never have to feel guilty for eating flesh, for strength and not for lust... To look at a woman to Lust For the First Time is forgivable and but for the second time, it is a sin...The difference between rambling and babbling is that babbling makes no sense and rambling is full of words that makes sense..The  reason carbonated drinks taste so good is because all the bubbles cause pain and of which enhances and triggers the pleasure of whatever one drinks, for even one of the ingredients of sugar is salt...(11) Finding the balance between Pleasure and Pain is pure ecstasy...(12) The worst curse that one can be put upon A man is to live a life of pleasure and ease without purpose...(13) Silence is golden when one hears no criticism, from anyone, when after making a passionate statement and even when no one hits the like button...(14) some people are perpetually stuck in reverse and nothing one can say to them will make them feel positive or good...(15)

Wise people are genuinely looking poor in their appearance, for their true riches are more valuable than rubies and jewels and can wear a crown of laurels with dignity other than a crown of gold...(16) a true rich man does oh he can do to hide his riches from others as not to make them feel jealousy and a truly poor man does everything he or she can, to show their riches foolishly...(17) I would rather have the lowest position in heaven than the highest position in Hell....(18) Mankind's greatest fear is to be a second-class citizen and that's what the unenlighten will be in the next life, chopping wood and carrying water for the hot tubs of Heaven....(19) A Small Miracle is just as big as a big miracle and don't stop thinking big...(20) it is so much better to praise someone else, then to praise oneself, for everyone will have a turn to be praised, without praising oneself...(20) Humility and meekness is the greatest gift on Earth, for Moses was the meekest man on Earth...We, that can make you lose your teetlh or break your nose are taught by the master Jesus Christ, to turn the other cheek and not let Pride pull you into a fight, by absorbing a simple slap of pride or the or the loss of one's teeth and broken nose..(21)One  can be the most righteous man on Earth or the least of all the sinners and yet suffer the worst calamities that a human being can experience and go unrewarded...(22) The mind's eye is the greatest eye that one can see with...(23)....The greatest tragedy that a man can experience, is to own the whole world and have no one to share it with...(24) The greatest gift in life is to have a pain free breath of fresh air....(25) 4:14 Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery.4:15 Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all. 1 Timothy1....(26) Man's greatest fear is to be afraid of being alone, without learning to be  alone with God...(27) Among the greatest fears and tragedies of mankind in the world to come, is to have to live your life all over again with no hope in the end, after living one's life again and toiling to repay for one sins, with nothing to show...(28)There is not a man or a woman on Earth that would press a button to extinguish their life and being forever as though they have never existed and no man can press a button to extinguish all their sins in the next life and be no more and be Scott free...(29) The fear of the unknown is ultimately man's greatest fear and a fear that can only be conquered or understood by lthe mystery of love and poetry ....(30) when finding something in the Bible that seems contradictory or cruel or unusual one must only look to or read the Bible, as the greatest book of poetry ever written or compiled on Earth...(3) One must never make a Doctrine on Earth from the Bible, by simply and only one verse,  but all the verses must be feathered together into a dove eventually...(31) All sin and wrong ultimately comes untimately from Fear,  of which is the opposite of love, for God is love...(32) All unforgiveness and hatred and pride, comes from within and not the object of the one hated or thing hated ...(33) No one likes to be around an anxious person for anxiety repels people away and the world is looking for an anxious free person to follow...(33) anxiety is like sand in the mind of fine machinery and worry accomplishes nothing...(34)

 

The best actors and guitar players are those who are best at Faking It, or by improvising...(35) Words are nothing more then vibrations and some vibrations are good and some vibrations are bad, for there are many ways to say I love you and only the vibrations give real meaning to the words, "I really love you"...(36) Never tell anybody to start worrying or to be anxious about something or to say you better  start fearing this or that is about to happen as though it was a self-fulfilling prophecy...(37) Fear jams up the mind and fight is a delight when the time or moment is right...(38) some people Delight in Fright and horror movies and wonder why they have bad dreamsI...(39) Some people face their fears and are able to climb straight up to the top of mountains and others look down and are paralyzed with fear...(40) Never go near a drowning man that is panicked with fear, until that person can't fight anymore against the waves and water and then can be rescued, at the point of total exhaustion, from fea to the point of drowing...(41) To have a brave heart is the greatest badge of courage and the greatest of gifts in the face of trouble or adversary....,(42) Alexander's horse named Bucephalus was afraid of his own shadow, until Alexander pointed him away from the fathom shadow of fear and into the sunlight and then  became the most renowned horse in history and even a city named after him...(42) I once had a friend who tried to save a drowning person and the drowning person clung to him so hard out of here, that they both drowned...(43) I have replaced doubt with faith and fear with a braveheart and anxiety with concern and I will never use the words, that I doubt this or that or I fear this or that or that  I'm worried about you and never teach others to do so by God's Grace....(43) There is not a perfect person on Earth and one can always find something to criticize in another...(44) The goodness side of a person will always look for the goodness side in others...(45) Do what I say or do the opposite of what I do, for they are both the same at times...(46) If you or the government want to destroy, or undo someone, then give them all the unearned money that they can spend...(47) A wise man once said that in Athens, men rule over women and women rule Athens...(48) The higher the mountains one must or seeks to climb, the deeper The Valleys...(49) One does not have wait for the ocean to freeze  over, before one  can walk on water, in a emergency, unless you bet somebody that you can for fun and make one with until the sea  freezes over...(50) my train of thoughts go in and out of tunnels and sometimes they don't come out, for weeks or months to be able to continue the conversation...(51) People that wear Rolex watches are most likely to be rolled...(52) men that work with their hands never wear costly jewelry...(52) The most powerful perfumes are a man's Musk and a woman's pheromones and we do all to cover them up with something artificial...(53) There are people living in space and people still living on Earth still in the Stone Age and so much for the theory of evolution, of which the first four letters spelled backwards are love for  evolution and the survival of the fittest is the lack of love and God is love....(54) The day you find the perfect Church, it won't be perfect anymore because you have arrived...(55) A seamless life is all that anyone could ask for, like the robe of Christ was seamless and could not be divided...(56) People believe they hear God in the lightning and thunder and earthquakes and yet God speaks more often in a still small voice...(57) People are like beautiful flowers and they all have thorns and so be careful how you pick...(58) If you don't want any dung in your life, then don't have cattle and if you do then, use it as fertilizer...(58) It is better to wear the Greek and Roman Laure,l then to where the crown of a king for both these republics and democracy despised the crown of gold...(59) Every Garden of Eden on Earth has a serpent in it and only in Paradise, will the garden be free of serpents...(60) Even the vomit of the rich has precious chunks of food and meat in it, for the starving poor...(51) without thunder and lightning and rain storms we would take blue skies for granted and the white puffy clouds and 

 birds soaring in the air uwards on thermals,  that come after a storm...(52) Pain and depression won't last forever for they come in waves and so does pleasures and joy for they also come in waves, as life goes spiraling on either upwards or downwards and but love is eternal...(53) humility and humbleness are the greatest gifts, for that's what Kings and princes long for and have their greatest Temptations to do the opposite and for Moses according to the scriptures was the meekest man on Earth...(54) the proud and boisterous person wants to be the life of the party, without picking up the tab...(55) The fool is offended when his pride is hurt and where the is humility,, no one is hurt..(56) it is better to cover for for another man's mistakes in secret and one will be rewarded publicly in the future by heaven and not man, of which is only an instrument...,(57) If a man steals to eat from poverty, from no fault of his own he will not be judged and only ask to repay when he is able and if a selfish man steals, he shall be fined fourfold and his hand shall not be cut or give him cruel and unusual punishment...(59) one cannot have olive oil without crushing the fruit first and deal with the pit so also one cannot make wine without crushing the grapes and patiently waiting for the fermentation and so also in making omelette...(60) my favorite Pastor who happened to be black and raised in the south in a rural area,  said that as a child he tried to help a baby chick hatch out of it's egg and he thought that he was helping the baby chicken and the chicken died, because it needed that last burst of energy of struggle, to release healing and fortified enzymes to survive...(61) when a disaster strikes such as an earthquake or a hurricane the poor are the most likely to survive and benefit from the disaster or the judgment, for there will be much left over to salvage or to recycle and the poor are also better equipped to go without hot showers or running water and eating discarded or dumpster food and  living in uncomfortable conditions...(62) I heard a famous opera singer once say that he was blind and but could see and I say that there are those that can see and yet are still blind...(63) When one gives to a worthy person, they are not just giving, they are investing in the best thing one can invest in and that is friends and of course the poor also, that cannot pay or never seen again to pay back, but remembered by the Lord, even if it is just a cup of cold water....(65) Wisdom comes with age and with some, they are still old fools and love, or the lack of love, makes the differance between a wiseman or a fool...(66) Dealing with pain takes away all one's worries, anxieties and family problems, for there is nothing to deal with but the pain and pain never lasts, so enjoy the anxious free moment...(66) living on my anchored out, or moored boat,  like a hermit on San Francisco Bay for decades, I have monsters under my bed every night, but I dare  not go fishing in the day from concern of pulling one up.and into my boat...(67) Once Upon a Time I went fishing off Sausalito on San Francisco Bay and I hooked onto what I thought was a massive and fighting game fish and I eventually tired it out to reel it in and put it into next to my sailboat, on a sunny day and what I thought was a game fish was a black Bat Ray that someone had caught before me and head cut off his stinger and I left it in the sun too long mama before releasing it and while looking at this Beast, it seemed to curse me,  with it s horned eyes and eventually after releasing it and  rolling to shore and as I climbed out of my boa on the beach a palm branch struck me in the leg and hit a nerve, the pain was so great that I had to go to the emergency room and looking back, even though that black Bat Ray had no stinger, it still got me and so I learned to respect God's creatures, more than ever before and so I rarely go fishing  for sport...(68) When the world looks ugly around you, then close your eyes and look into the other world and after a while,  when you come reurn, the world will look like a better place, Through The Eyes Of Love...(69) The greatest Greek tragedy in my mind, was the story and life of the Athenian  General Alcabidies, on whom the gate of Western Civilization turned and as he went back and forth fighting for and in between the Spartans and the Athenians, during the Peloponnesian War of ancient Greece and his cover of Socrates, under Fire and as Socrates did for him also to begin within a prior battle  and of which, put a stain on him in Athens and contributed to his death sentence on ultimately being accused of blaspheming or talking down the  Greek gods to the youth of Athens, and as so was Alcibidies was originally condemned to death, for after destroying or defacing a statue or statues or Mercury, in Athens and profaning the Elysian Mysteries and meanwhile fought on both sides of the Peloponnesian War and consorted with the King of Persia, an enemy to both sides to save his life and whose father before him was the main General of the Athenian Army....(70) in ancient Rome people were held as slaves and in modern times they are called employees without job security unless contracted...(71) The more one meditates the more one gets things done, for in meditating the mind becomes more clear, on how to do things more eaily, without confusion and distraction...(72) The scripture say "Vengeance is mine," says the Lord and it belongs to Him and those that take vengeance without His approvel, are stealing from Him...(73) It takes a lot of patience to be a doctor...(74) Once Upon a Time why I lay in my bank on my anchored and aging sailboat, I heard a strange noise outside on San Francisco Bay, off Sausalito and when I heard it again I went out to investigate and I saw the nose of a white whale spouting outside near my boat and I was awestruck,  for it was not an Albino white, but white on the back and sides and interesting that Franis Drake named Marin County and North New Albion after the ancient name for England, Albion of which means white, like the white cliffs of Dover...(75)  A bolt or a screw, will never tithen itself, but only will come loose, without maintiance...{76}  A loose headed claw wrench, like a pipe wrench with teeth, can be better the a fine and machined Cresent Wreach...{77) Better to wait and surprise someone, then giving one time to worry or doubt...{78} Worry is like fine grass of sand, in the machinery...{79) Time heals all wounds and wounds all heels...{80) Few will be given over five billion heartbeats and how will one spend then the rest of the one's, we have left...{81} The bigger the mountain of worry, the greater the challenge for those with faith...(82) Worry accomplishes nothing, but takes the joy of life, out of one's soul...(83) Worry is like sand in the fine machinery of one's mind (84) Worry as a demon must be cast out at all costs (84) Anxiety also as a demand, must be cast out at all coasts also (85) Pain and sickness and disease are all potential demons, that must be exhocised (86) The World has gone mad, when paying millions for sports objects and such (86) One cannot see the sky reflected in a pond, unless it is perfectly calm ad be still and know that I AM, the Lord (87) severe alcoholics wa89)ke up the next morning so guilt-ridden for all the shameful acts they committed while they were drunk that they have to get drunk again just to forget again and again and again and again (88) Never seek after signs only appreciate them when you see them (89) The most common excuse for brother not helping brother is that they they don't want to be helped (90) It's not the first punch that counts, but the last one (91) Our good feelings are not as a result of being good and perfect all the time, but our good feelings, are because God is good and pefect... (92) The time to stop being anxieious and depressed in now and not a second later....(93) The battle has nothing to do with anything external, but the battle is all within and has nothing to do without for the Kingdom of God is within as Jesus spoke....94 When you feel the weight of the world on your shoulders, remember the Lord will give you the strength to bear...(94) Life is to  short and sweet, to be bitter....(95) A whisper is heard louder then a shout...

Another Chapter in the book The Life and Times on the Sausalito Waterfront

Weekly Jesus Festival every Sunday starting around noon with hot coffee and drinks and hot food around one O'clock and Fellowship time around mid afternoon when we are all fully awake here on the Waterfront of Sausalito and Anchorage denisins are finally awake with supper in the late afternoon in front of the Sausalito Senior Center and Library Sausalito City Hall building patio area and bring something to share for the pantry and or prepared food in a County where movements begin like the Mountain Bike and the first Rock Festival on Mount Tamalpias called the Majic Mountain Festival and the United Nations was dedicated here in the famous giant redwood forest close to Sausalito and Zen Buddhism with Allen Watts and the hot tube movement from the town of Fairfax and the first Medical Marijuana in America despensory in Fairfax also and the first porno movie to go mainstream called Behind the Green Door in Sausalito at the former Alta Mira Hotel and now a high expense drug recovery center and many major hedonistic cult movements in Marin as well as being  the Hedonistic Capital of the World (watch the movie The Serial filmed in Marin County) for that matter also being virtually the richest most lush and most desirable place to live in the world, if you have the money to move here or otherwise, the water is the only place to live if one is not a millionaire and the millionaires are trying to stop people from anchoring off shore where Sir Francis Drake first anchored off Sausalito, after the incoming tide during a fog bank drew him to the entrance of San Francisco Bay before anchoring off Sausalito and making first contact with the native American Southern Miwoks who were  also called The Water People and when a brave Miwok paddled out to the boat, that they thought came from the Heavens with thier departed ancesters and they exchanged hats as gifts with the brave warrior giving him a Crow feathered  headdress and Drake giving him a cap or hat that was the worse end of the deal because unbeknown to Drake that the Miwoks were the best basket weavers in the known world and as written by local Miwok descendant,  who wrote a book about the entire encounter with Drake and the Great Festival given to him on June 26 (my birthday) in the year of I forget 1567 or something and was the thier first  encounter with Europeans and Drake took it for an sign that they excepted him as Chief before he left after building the first English fort or wall in Novoto near the Chief village of the Miwoks and left tons of silver bars buried before sailing around the world to evade the Spanish ships waiting for him South after plundering ship and land for gold, Jewels, silver and wine and provisions and later sent a ship to recover the silver of which ever returned !? Also before leaving the rejoicing and crying Miwoks who knew the world would never be the same, after thier first contact with the proverbial aliens from another World, that people who were still in the stone age and had not even developed pottery yet and but like I said were the best basket weavers in the known World and I ironilky the only Spanish treasure ship that ever shipwrecked, some time over a hundred years or so later was full of Ming Dynasty China wear from the Philippians and the natives had the best tea cups in the World and before Drake left Marin County without a scandle with the natives,except one sailor and a Miwok maiden sneaking off together for a proverbial night of romance, which story is still told as an innocent trist, because Drake forbaid any such contact with the native women and treated the locals with great respect, even though the locals thought that they were gods and Drake's Chaplin wrote that Drake showed them that they were not gods but men, because they ate food and gods didn't have to eat and that they wore clothes and such, just like any other men and all this written down more accurately in a local Miwok publication by a Doctor who is related to the Miwok Chief named Marin of which this County is named after and the book name is Drake at Olympia the Chiefs native village where the Chief of the Miwoks and Drake finally met after leaving Sausalito and sailing to present day Novoto California and a beautiful Nature Park there where even the Grateful Dead lived in Chief Marin's Estate and a Drake coin found there also by another party and I have a weathered copy of the book give me my the last Miwok Princess directly related to Marin and her Uncle or Father if I'm not  mistaken wrote the oral traditions down and one last thing before Drake left was declaring it is said that all lands North of here are claimed as part of England and named to his land Nova Albion, translated New England as Albion was the original name of England and the people Drake told Queen Elizabeth had submitted themselves to England and the Queen and for more information on the first weekly Jesus Festival and or what to bring or share one can contact me Waterfront and Anchorage Pastor and Anchorout resident longer then anyone that I personally know or have hear from and would gladly give up the title as the longest known and so called Pirate Anchorout on a Hook on San Francisco Bay to anyone else who claims it and Signed Pirate Pastor Peter Christian Romanowsky  415 374 0734 

Chapter Nine/ Testimonial/ Arrival at Gates of of Hell at Gate Six Sausalito / by Peter Romsnowsky CEO/President of NCEA Inc

  Voice to text unedited and unpunctuated a work in progress.... Once upon a time I woke up on a sunny and a beautiful day in the heart of Marin County California and there was a knock at the door and a young man with a 7-Eleven Highway Patrol hat and gave me a piece of paper and "said you are served"  if I recall and I looked at the paper and it said that I was being sued and I laughed to myself, as to who could be suing me and then I looked at the name on the lawsuit and it was a divorce lawsuit with my wifes name and I had 48 hours to leave my home and take my car,personal property and trailer of which I bought so we could go in a marriage counseling vacation at my wifes suggestion and then being thrown into it and I found myself falling into a bottomless pit and the paper included a restraining order that I couldn't contact my children for 3 years and of course and I lost it like this only a divorcer wants to tell the children what is going on and I couldn't tell my side of the story or even call my children to comfort them. For all was so well we had the highest joint income of our marriage we have three children with a brand new baby and Sarah and I thought I was on top of the world and that the darkness had passed and I had just gone through 3 years of The Dark Night of the Soul where I couldn't leave my home for that length of time and made the best of it studying and praying until I was healed enough to come back out into the world and I bought a couple of used sailboats and taught myself how to sail and sailed one of them down to Coast as far as Monterey and I was in the process of continuing the journey to Ventura California. Of course I was in other consternation and confusion and disorientation and for it felt like I had just been hit by a truck and I had given my wife my community property under duress by my in-laws and I was pennyless to fight the lawsuit after 16 years of marriage and so after an extension of 72 hours, to leave my home and while the movie Nightmare on Elm Street was playing, that week downtown and I lived on Elm Street it all just seemed so surreal and it was Thanksgiving time and I was planning and seriously thinking or taking the family to my parents house in Los Angeles to have Thanksgiving for the first time since our marriage with my side of the family and all this hell breaks out and so I got into trailer that I bought, at my wife suggestion to go on a marriage counseling and healing vacation back East to Jim Baker's marriage counselors classes and Ministry and here I was living in the trailer and being towed away in my used car down to Sausalito and I parked in the parking lot briefly at Galilee, with the trailer and stared out over the water,o for I had a 30 ft Wooden Boat a sailboat out there that was not prepared to be lived on during the winter of which was closing in on me and so with a friend of mine. That I was going to take down to Monterey to continue my sailing and delivery voyage to Ventura, as a gift to my father who has spent and been denied all the blessings and privileges by being around my wife and I and children as we were perennial least stuck with my wife's side of the family on Christmas and Thanksgiving and all and we live in close to my in laws and their access to our children and not to be in touch with my parents who were virtually and totally isolated from our family and living in Los Angeles, the proverbial 500 miles away and I thought this boat would be a nice little token, for it I had planned to spend the summer with my family in Israel for I had been a partner with a missionary couple at the Petra Hotel at the entrance if King David Street in the Old City and in the restaurant business and watching the hotel at night and managing it and I had also rented a two-bedroom flat unfurnished in Bethlehem overlooking the shepherd's field and I also had bought a youth Volkswagen Beetle during my numerous Journeys to Israel and Jerusalem as part of my International Outreach Ministry of what stretched from Finland through Scandinavia and across Europe to Greece and up from there through turkey and Cypress and then Israel and on another mission across Egypt up and down and surveying it for future missionary evangelism and activity and after driving from Marin County in the dead of the night with my first mate who had a bullet wound in his head from a drunk paranoid that shot him Point Blank and left some pieces of the bullet in his head and he was my only companion and a beautiful person he was and an innocent victim and together we drove into the night on Thanksgiving Eve and stop somewhere to have a Thanksgiving dinner at some truck stop and then drove on across the South to El Paso Texas on my way to the Florida Keys to get warm for I did not want to spend the winter on my cold boat in Northern California and we ran out of gas and El Paso and I gave the Nomad trailer in my car to a missionary whose wife had also left him and taking his kids on the mission field and I crossed the border and we took a bus along the Mexican border to Tijuana and crossed back into California and for the first time in my account life I was all of a sudden homeless and sitting on a bench all night with no place to sleep and watching the homeless people all night and one of them offering me some McDonald's hamburgers from the dumpster and I gladly ate them up and it was the first time in my life that I'd eaten dumpster food and I called my mother for bus fare to go up to her 40 acres in sold at Canyon in the northernmost part of LA County and then we took a bus back up to Marion County and I parted with my friend and he went to my now ex-wife's house for shelter and she gave him a sleeping bag and he eventually died in the sleeping bag in San Anselmo homeless and I moved on to my 30 foot and leaky boat for it had never stopped leaking some time I bought it and I was snookered as most people are when they buy their first boat and it did not have adequate Heat and in fact no heat at all and I ended up getting frostbite on my feet from falling asleep with cotton and wet socks and my feet look like they had jungle rot and but eventually completely healed and I settled in to see the world Around Me Now and the world and I hadn't been apart for some 17 or 18 years, before I met my wife and got married and have been living in a home on a hill and then in an apartment complex that might in law phone and then to a beautiful garden estate and this became how I was accustomed to live in a middle and upper class life and married into one of the if not the most wealthiest influential father-in-law and Marin County and was a former supervisor I knew the judges that handled my divorce case and I knew that if I went to court they were going to have me declared incompetent or insane and that's what my father-in-law always alluded for my devotional and if not fanatical born again Christian faith of which was the opposite of his hedonistic lifestyle and was interested only in having grandchildren and he was also the founder of the mental health units at Marin General Hospital of what she was also chairman of the board and the judge that initiated the divorce was a friend of mine-in-laws and did my sister-in-law's wedding and the judge did finalize the divorce after me fleeing and not showing up and knowing what was going to happen was also a friend of my in-laws and I had no choice but but flea and going to Exile or risk being committed and drugged and possibly Electro shocked treatment as was practice and still is practice at Marin General Hospital and after looking around in this new world that I was baptized in and the same world that I came out of I have to be born again in 1968 and had become accustomed to live in the life of Riley and now I was in lower the bowl again where I first initially started after running away from home during the year of the Summer of Love and hitchhiking back to Marin County of where I lived for a few years before moving with my parents down to Los Angeles and after a year of living there I couldn't stand it no more after living in Marin County and hitchhike back up and the first night I spent it was on the waterfront and in the houseboat of a waitress at the Charles Van Dam nightclub on the border of Sausalito and Marin County Land and here I was again after all those years married and being a minister and an evangelist and the vice president of the New Covenant Evangelistic Association and the first church to sponsor the mission Dios es Amor in the heart of Mexico and the state of durando and now I am nothing again and no wife and no kids and no family and no money and the only skill I do was being a pastor and an international missionary evangelist and we had a thrift store and we had a disciple house ministry and homeless shelter in the first floor of our house and have had homeless people sleeping on our porch and on our couch and here I was homeless, after taking so many homeless people in and turning our home into a homeless shelter and the only one in our town and before that was any homeless official shelter in Marin County and there is a bronze life-size statue that looks like me next to City Hall and San Anselmo and dressed like Indiana Jones and I believe it's a token and a gift by the Angels in memory of me taking all the homeless in and especially even the town drunk James Gronsinski who died and went to Glory in Our Guest House and turn out to be one of the nicest and sweetest people one could ever know or meet and so misery on top of humiliation and I went to a local used stuff store to buy a fork and spoon or something to eat with and the man there seemingly mocking me and saying "starting all over again with a smurk"  and so here I was jobless and houseless and family less, with only the clothes of my back and a boat with a constant leak that I constantly had to attend and could not even leave for any length of time and so here I was trapped in Sausalito and on the waterfront and Anchorage and again looking around and seeing every sort of boat or houseboat or contraption or work of art and with people looking like proverbial Pirates and the shenanigans and hard drugs and plenty of drinking and a lot of sex and everyone was following and former Anglican priest who claimed to have introduced Zen Buddhism to America and his name was Alan Watts and all these old school and old timers had died off or moved on and the second generation of hippies following the beatniks we're in charge now and full of energy and youth they were and parties going on and campfires and barbecues on shore and wine and beer and alcohol flowing all around me and yet again I was totally broke and pennies and jobless and the only other skills I had were as a mechanic and as a property manager and none of these job opportunities presented themselves. For everyone was desperate to find work and in order to live on the waterfront and most desirsble place  to live and the most expensive, Sausalito! But after pondering my condition and being fed and helped Along by and mentally ill, on and off heroin user who bought me cigarettes of which I started smoking again and a beer here and there and taking me to the back of a Chinese restaurant for instance and getting the leftovers from the busing tray and I thought to myself that this is the lowest point and as I walk back and forth in the Waterfront wondering how I could make a living I noticed the Yacht Harbor dumpsters were full of all kinds of exotic stuff that the millionaires would be throwing away and I remembered in the Book of Job where Satan came before God to accuse job and God said to Satan by which way have you come into my presence and he said from going back and forth throughout the Earth and looking for somebody to accuse for saying is also called the accuser the brother and accused Job of being faithful to God, because the Lord has built a hedge around him and he was prosperous and had no one to need and God put job to the test by taking everything away from him and even his health and was reduced to ashes and scraped his body with a pot Sheard and I thought to myself if Satan could come before the presence of the Lord like in the Book of Job by going back and forth throughout the Earth, then I will go back and forth across the world in Sausalito and pick up all the recyclables and all the discarded Marine gear and everything imaginable that could be put into a dumpster from wealthy yacht harbors and wealthy Yachtys and so I became a full time Salvager and  recycler for the next 20 years. Until my back was broken from the hard labor with nodes and spars and arthritis and for the next 20 years after that I perform with two doxies on the dock of the bay where Otis Redding got the inspiration for his famous song and perform daily with my dogs on My Guitar and helping to play it with their paws and my first Taxi went to dog heaven after 10 years for she was seven or eight when I got her and my second Doxie also the same and then I reached Social Security age and started getting Social Security checks and a disability check for all the back breaking work I had done and after taking a year off vacationing in Marin County and working on my boat h

a buying a used Ford Sport Explorer with a 4-speed Overdrive and rack and pinion steering and that  became my pet car or Auto and after a year doing anything I wanted todo and having the money to do it. For not having to pay rent mortgage is her taxes on property and my children's Mother, who is the treasurer of our nonprofit. Wrote me in, as CEO and  president of the New Covenant Evangelistic Association Inc. For we were the last two board members, until we invited Doug storms to be Secretary and my children's Mother   doubled as the Secretary, so Doug could be free to minister and the last I heard he was in Mexico and no doubt spreading the word and Back Again to my story and  proverbly arriving at the Gates of Hell as called by yhe locals. The entrance to the Waterfront of Sausalito at gate 6, whete zombies freeloaders, Saints and Sinners and drug addicts and sex addicts and followers of the former Anglican priest Alan Watts. That  claimed to have introduced Zen Buddhism to America of which in the Far East, nobody's ever heard of Zen  Buddism!? Also I met Alan Watts grown up son and he was a very nice and polite waterfront denisen and was staying at the Zen Buddhist Center at Muir Beach and other places I'm sure like on the water and but I also met the former Roadie for the band The Pink Floyd and he was a fantastic person and perfect gentlemen and had a son named dancer and he was an anchor out off Sausalito on a houseboat on San Francisco Bay and he was the gnarliest looking pirate that I've ever seen on the waterfront pand with a Sweet Soul like gold and I met the man at Galilee Harbor those working on Michael Eiseisner's biographical book who was the CEO of Disneyland and the  Hippie Summit happened and a ferry boat turned houseboat with Timothy Leary and other poets and free thinkers and anarchist  and revolutionaries, before I had arrived and also the houseboats were the hiding place of the weather Underground and the ferry boat to Charles Van Damme was the number one hotspot for bands in Marin County and looking back it was the Fillmore Auditorium so to speak of Marin County, or the Avalon Ballroom and I was too young and dumb to know what was going on and I wasn't even old enough to buy cigarettes. But they always had a cigarette machine there back in the mid-60s and I used to sneak out of my house of my parents, who were sleeping. In Larkspur not far away and catch the bus at night with a friend and go to the Charles Van Damme and we serve alcohol even though only 17 and looked older and it was the Wild West back then with a two-story bar and dance floor and eventually Joe Tate and the home Rock Band called the red legs perform there later on in the 60s after it ceased being a nightclub and bar and dancehall and was revived again by the and it was all just one big free for all and Sausalito and a place for Anything Goes and dropping into this soup late in life at 36 after my unwanted divorce in 1984 I had to learn how to live all over again with nothing like I did when I first ran away from home in the year of the Summer of Love and return back to Marin County where I had lived for a few years prior to moving back to Los Angeles where I was raised with my parents and except for the fact that I had a couple of old and wooden sailboats and one was anchored off Monterey Harbor a 24 ft sailboat called Sarif of which I was sailing down the coast to deliver to my father is a gift in Ventura County of which was the destination of the boat and but the drivetrain stripped out and I had to get a new drive chain for the Lister diesel and while at home in San Sumo and getting ready for the next leg of my voyage my divorce went down unexpectedly and here I was in Sausalito with my 29 and a half foot boat, old and wooden sailboat that never stopped leaking from Below and I had bought it at kermits yard Harbor in San Rafael on the canal, buy a boat salesman and of course I got totally ripped off as usual when a newcomer who wants to be a sailor go shopping for a boat and is a sucker. Pausing to ruminate, it's 449 in the morning June 29th 2023, I've been living on the water in my boat since November 1984 and except for three years in a place called Galilee Harbor in Sausalito, the entire time I've been anchored off Sausalito on San Francisco Bay and I as I have aforementioned I became a full-time resident at this time and prior I had a 30 ft marine plywood sailboat a year or so earlier and spent half my day on the boat and half my day in my home with my wife and children, until I was sideswiped by it unexpected divorce and of whom I do not blame my spouse for as I have mentioned before, I married into a wealthy and Powerful family in Marin County the wealthiest and most powerful County in California and ultimately I was rejected by my in-laws of whom my father-in-law never really accepted me and went along with the marriage and it pleased my mother-in-law and he was interested in having grandchildren and that was about the size of it and after producing three grandchildren I was forced out of the family and could do nothing about it for he held the reins of power in this County and knew the judges that did my divorce and so like Moses I fled Into the Wilderness from the face of pharaoh and like David my wife Michelle was taken back by King Saul his father-in-law and being forced to live on my inadequately prepared boat or vessel and dropped into the midst of a hodgepodge of anchored boats and people of every sort and someone wanted by the law and are hiding and some are displaced persons who have lost their homes and family like I did through a divorce and others are addicted to alcohol and drugs and sex and false religions and philosophies and yet all of these train wreck of a community, like I myself have become a part of and are considered floating Jetsam on the bay and treated with no respect and belittled and slandered and vilified as to currently being accused of contributing to global warning, by our anchors dragging and circles like crop circles and yet the Eel Grass Grows prolifically and we are blamed for destroying the eelgrass on this part of San Francisco Bay and in reality it is so thick now because of all the nitrates in the Bay from the Mansions of millionaires that surround us and fertilizers running off after the winter storms and the Eel Grass is growing out of control in the Summers and then dies off in the winter and this is where the battle lines are drawn now, Plus are floating homes and boats have been declared Marine debris and so-called Harbor Masters and administrators black sharks prowl the water and looking for blood in the water so that they can devour people's homes and boats without do compensation and relocation on land of which they wish us to move into or into marinas that don't want us and that are outrageously expensive and so we sit like ducks in a pond and the hunters have their shotgun, too her verbally blow us out of the water and just like the spotted owl was used to destroy the lumber industry in what's now called The Emerald Triangle of where most of the high-grade marijuana is grown in America. Because the loggers were put out of work and their children became marijuana farmers and that's what they expect us to become and for there is no dry land for us to come to onshore in Marin County, a millionaires playground and the hedonistic capital of California and search for the movie called the serial about Marin County infamous hedonism and high rate of divorce. I am currently learning and relearning on how to be led by the Holy Spirit and not to be anxious about anything and to let the Holy Spirit do the talking and inspiration through me imperfections and all for We Are collaborators and the Holy Spirit is not dictating anything to me and but inspiring me and bringing pertinent things to my memory and I am learning this while writing my autobiography and memoise. Not to be anxious about what to write down or what to say for it shall be given to me in that hour, so to speak as Jesus taught when going to court for his sake and persecution by the accuser of the bread and the devil. Not to premeditate what to say or to be anxious about what to say and have a clearly defined thought process prior to a court appearance as in my case a number since my divorce on the quality of life issues of which I began to suffer all of the sufferings of the homeless and the anchor outs and being arrested along with them for simple things like being charged with drunk in public of which is a common charge when the police want to harass her hassle people at the city councils bequest of Sausalito for instance to get rid of all the poor people and the Riff raft and the homeless and the police say you have to go home and drink and how can you say that to a homeless person who lives in her shoes and needs a little alcohol to help forget their poverty as the last chapter of the Book of Proverbs prescribes and it prescribes judges not to condemn those for drinking in public or even being drunk in public and not to criminalize them and to say as I say and interpret the meaning of that proverb telling the judges to judge righteous judgment and for not to give people criminal records to make it harder for them to get a job and by the grace of God I have never been convicted of being drunk in public and even though I have been accused and arrested for it after my divorce a number of times and in fact I hold the record for being body bagged and shamed hand and foot, and being charged with drunk in public and resisting arrest when all I did was lay down in a non-violent protest position and I was chained hand and foot and carried away and by the grace of God in court God gave me the wisdom to have a jury trial and representing myself as an attorney in Pro per, wowing the courts and the jury to the point where the judge told me after two of the jurors bailed out after I gave my opening statement and one said that he knew me and couldn't be an impartial judge and another said she witnessed the quote police brutality that was inflicted on me at my arrest for non-violently protesting and just laying down and saying Carry Me Away and so there was not enough jurors left to have a trial and the nervous and squeamish and paranoid judge who had who had been pulled out of retirement. Specifically to handle my case because she couldn't be recalled and I was part of a recall movement of judges and a district attorney and I signed the initial papers to recall the district attorney and then I got a call from Lynette Rose to founder of the first medical marijuana Club in the USA and said that she had a beef with the district attorney also and wanted to join us in recalling her and she put up the money and the signatures to put the district attorney on the recall about it and then we ran a friend of mine name Carol Marduez, who is being persecuted for trying to rescue her daughter from an abusive father who was a cocaine addict and dealer and even burned her daughter with cigarettes and the district attorney decided to make an example out of her when she got a court order from Judge Duffy and went with the police to her daughter's school to get custody of her daughter and then the district attorney accused her of making false statements to get the legal Authority and decided to make an example out of her for political reasons for I had encouraged her to run for Novato school board and I was her campaign manager and the district attorney thought that she could gain popularity in votes by going after my close and Christian and godly mother and friend and it all backfired and then we ran my friends brother who is an attorney against the district attorney and of course she out spent our candidate and got reelected and but it broke her health and she could never run again for I had heard that she was having trouble with some sort of blindness and she was being groomed to be no doubt the next congresswoman are senator and being from the richest and most influential and Democrat stronghold in California which is Marin County she would have been a shoe in and because of her eyesight trouble and for as you know Justice should be blind, she never ran for reelection and nobody has ever heard of her since for touching God's child who was trying to protect her child from a Godless man and she will ever go down in history as Carol martus and wrote a book about her experience also after being jailed and imprisoned we're trying to legally rescue her daughter and after being sent to the Mexican border to a woman's prison where none of us can reach her and she endured all this horror and she was a Godly woman singing in a choir at the San Rafael Southern Baptist Church for instance and outlasted her critics and opponents and eventually her daughter when she turned 18 came back to her mother and there was a happy ending for Carol and an unhappy ending to a district attorney who dared touch one of God's anointed and I'm saying all this to say that in court I do my homework before going to court and I've had two jury trials that I have picked myself out of 50 candidates one was over an eviction From Galilee Harbor of which was a false and libelous harbor that lied to everybody about being a Marine Service Harbor to get their permits and just recently even pulled out the dingy doc so the anchorouts couldn't tie up there and it was originally supposed to be a refuge for the anchor outs of Sausalito and a double whammy for Mr Goldbar of the San Francisco Bay and conservation development the organization that gave the permit for the harbor to be a Marine Service Harbor also voted to take out the dingy dock and the harbor was supposed to be a refuge for the anchor outs and we have them by the proverbial Eel Grass that they are trying to use to exterminate a way of life on San Francisco Bay and they are all headed for trouble with the Lord to be continued.. if you would like to send a contribution please do to the New Covenant Evangelistic Association PO box 2404 San Anselmo California 949-79 if one would like to

church and hot food barbecue and Pantry in the park all afternoon long and during the day I met a man that was a schoolmate of My Strange son of whom I've only had lunch with the ones and almost 39 years and he didn't even stay for dessert and has not visited me with my newest grandchild for some time now of whom I've never seen and is still bitter over the divorce for my in-laws head brainwashed my children with their millions of dollars and put all three of my children through universities and paid for their tuitions and made me look like a nothing more than a demented Jesus Freak for loving the Lord my God with all my heart mind and soul and of course my neighbor as myself of which are the two great Commandments that Jesus preached and who said all the other Commandments are hinged on these two great Commandments of which are not written among the 10 Commandments in stone and but can only be written on one's heart by the new birth of the Holy Ghost through Jesus Christ Our Lord to the father and this former High School classmate of my sons said he's going to contact my son and shame him into coming and visiting me and bringing my two grandchildren of which he has never done and I've only seen him a few times since the year of the Big Brother 1984 and I have so needed to go between my son and me and nobody has been able to bridge that Gap and I don't even have his phone number or email otherwise I would try to call and email him and I have to go through my children's Mother and she can't apparently bridge the gap either and neither my eldest daughter and my youngest daughter I've been a strange from also from decades and she is a famous aerialist it was first job was at the Wynn Hotel in Las Vegas after graduating from Leola Marymount University in Southern California and went on to work with the Radio City Music Hall Rockettes as a contracted aerialist and was in a Super Bowl Chevy commercial with the cast of Glee, doing her aerialist act and was on Good Morning America being interviewed after falling during a performance in Hollywood and breaking bones without a safety net and of course the bitterness of divorce and the brainwashing by my multimillionaire in laws and my  powerful political figure, my late father-in-law who has had appointments by the former Governor Brown of California and the former Governor Reagan of California and has had Eisenhower and patton at his Captain's Table in the Mediterranean during World War II, as a Merchant Marine captain during the war and also was the chairman of the board at the Vallejo state Maritime Academy in California and was appointed by the two governors to the State Harbors and Navigation  Commission of California. 

Captain Log July 6th the second day an aging Harbor Seal has moved next door, to my floating home on San Francisco Bay and I was recently wondering where the harbor seals go to die for of all the harbor seals that I've seen in the bay up to around 40 at a time. Sunbathing near the shore of Sausalito on Richards and Bay and here is a seal that has taken up residency for the past two days in my skiff and a very rare event in the few decades that I have been anchored on the bay and I was visited by a white whale on another occasion and that's another story and it wasn't an albino and maybe this agency is looking for a peaceful place to expire?! On the 4th of July I met the man again who has been writing a book about the anchor outs of Sausalito for the past 8 years and is on the final Chapter and he said the book will be out this time next year to be published by Collins and Harper publishing of New York and where he's from and has been commuting back and forth over the past eight years working on this apparently monumental book about the Anchorage and Waterfront people of Sausalito and he told me a story about Richard Dreamweaver and a seal that he friended and fed regularly and I wonder if this is the same seal. For it has no fear of me and usually seals dive back under the water when humans get close to them or they just follow us out in our skiffs in the middle of the night like guardian angels and Richard last I heard is staying with his brother in San Francisco and so if it is his pet seal.Then it's found a new home in my skiff the last couple of days and looking forward to seeing this aging and beautiful and gentle harbor seal for a long time.. to be continued

Forty Years on a hook bt Peter of Sausalito

To an ancient mariner there is nothing more beautiful than a ship on the ocean and even the King Solomon said that it was one of the most beautiful things that he has ever thought of or seen and a ship has no straight lines and every board is curved or bevel, black woman's body smooth and rounded and shapely with her skirts flying in the sails and the breathtaking views and knowing that you could die any moment falling off the rigging or falling into the ocean off of ship that would take miles to turn around and rescue you and it is also beautiful and cunning and wise and adventurous in the ultimate plan of God in the Creator to live life, without being bored and a poem by Peter of Sausalito The Hermit of San Francisco Bay!

Chapter Chapter Eight Testimonial /Michael Payton Legacy/ by Peter Romanowsky CEO/President of the New Covenant Evangelistic Association Inc l

 

  Unedited voice to text  and a work in progress/Once Upon a Time there was a ideal looking long hair and bearded hippie living next door to the apartment complex that my in-laws own and also next to George Lucas's Hilltop Victorian Mansion and his name was Michael Payton and he always had a smile and a garden in front of him and an organic garden at that and  it was always my impression anyways, and one day a friend of mine named Randy McAtee, led him to the Lord Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior and for Michael was an altar boy in the Catholic Church in his youth and was raised in San Anselmo California in Marin County and but he had not experienced the New Birth by the Holy Ghost, in Jesus Christ and the Father and being raised a Catholic myself. I never heard about the new birth and thought that I just had to be as good as I can, to enter into the Kingdom of Heaven and it seemed like I could never be that good enough. Compared to all the well-dressed and successful looking people, that went to Mass on Sundays and I never heard the gospel preached during mass. But only current events in the news, except for the liuturgy of which was all in Latin. When I was growing up and I couldn't understand anything said and my back hurt from kneeling so long during the communion ceremony and Michael became part of our new and fledgling Jesus movement Church and became a saint in our midst and the most flawless person that I have ever met, with a kind heart and giving and never taking bad about anyone and as handsome as a Greek statue. With his jet black hair and beard and he also was a singer and guitar player and joined our makshift, choir with Kenneth Hopkins and myself and Linda Weaver and Randy McAtee on makeshift, instance and we sang and played and worship the Lord on Sundays and beginning formally in the Woodacre Improvement Club.In Woodacre  California, in Marin County and then we moved to the beautiful wedding chapel that looked  like a cathedral and a castle on a hill overlooking San Anselmo and ironically Michael  also lived in the neighborhood with George Lucas, before he became world famous and now again he's living in a neighborhood near him again in new location and in humble rented means. Michael also  worked at the Black Market Import and export store in San Anselmo of which was the largest import export store in Marin County and his bosses were both "Gay" and owners together and after Michael was Born Again one of the Gay owners noticed a dramatic difference in Michael and begin wondering and being curious as to what happened to him and one day Michae. Woho had the keys to the Seminary Chapel, took him up there to pray with him and he was born again also and for he had been in the homosexual and "quote Gay"  lifestyle for some 20 years. After his first pastor introduced him to homosexuality and set him up with another gay member of the church and they became partners together and gay lovers and about the time that this gentleman noticed Michael's complete change in his life. The gentleman was contemplating suicide. For he was getting older and couldn't get young Gay lovers and was going to what was called the dark rooms in San Francisco. Where people had sex in the dark with total strangers and this was before the AIDS epidemic and he felt like jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge, before he saw Michaels change and so Michael brought him to one of our Sunday morning church services. In the most beautiful cathedral like Chapel in Marin County, On Seminary Hill at the San Francisco Theological Seminary, lpocated in San Anselmo. of which are humble little church congregation rented for our Sunday services and all though Seminary. Being a Presbyterian Seminary and the oldest Presbyterian Seminary West of the Mississippi and had relocated from San Francisco to San Anselmo and by the grace of God. The manager of the Seminary let us rent what was commonly known as the Wedding Chapel. For it was so that beautiful and was used and rented for weddings. Whenever it was not used on Sundays and so we were able to use the chapel and the gentleman that Mike Peyton brought to Church one Sunday morning, looked so bored during the service and it looked like he had his head in his hand and couldn't get  out of the service fast enough and hoping it would end soon type of look on his face and demeanor and to my surprise he came back again and again to our Sunday morning service and eventually asked if he could be the organist for we had an organ in the chapel and he became our organist. For he had been the organist some 20 ynmears ago in the church that the gay pastor introduced him into the homosexual lifestyle and the name of the church denomination was the Disciples of Churst a major denomination and of which anyone would know or have heard from or about in Christian circles as a legitimate Bible Church and I believe it may have been the same denomination, that Jim Jones was a part of at one time. Before he became the great Pretender or the apostate backslider, in the Assembly of God denomination or some type of archetype Pentecostal and Holy Ghost filled Church, like that of where, he learned his devious ways, of how to speak the Holy Ghost and Christian language and of which by he had deceived, so many and for when I first heard Jim Jones on the radio he was perfect in every word and claimed to be healing people in the name of Jesus and or using the typical Pentecostal and Bible language and if not charismatic language of the day and but when I went to a Jim Jones meeting in Ukiah and he wasn't there. I heard his business manager and what I heard disturbed me very much and that's another story about fake Church supporting the Communist of Angela Davis and belittling organizations like the Full Gospel business fellowship and such and as I left the so-called Chapel with an indoor swimming pool of which they claimed was used for baptism. Jim Jones's wife followed me out of the chapel and asked me what was wrong and I told her that I just had a bad feeling about what was going on in there and she had a little Jewish a young lady with her. Who said that she was an atheist and Jim Jones brought her to the belief in God and little that she know that Jim Jones claim to be God and that he was the god of all these poor and unfortunate Souls and I will share the rest of the story about Jim Jones at another time and in another chapter of this memoir of mine and back to the gentleman named Brother Frank Worthen. Who became our organist and one day he came to me and asked if he could put a series of messages on our Christian radio program, that I was ministering over and I said "no problem" and "yes" and for he was concerned about speaking about coming out of the homosexual lifestyle and wanted to help others and he was concerned it my defend some of our members in our little congregation and I said absolutely not and by the grace of God.⁰ I was the first to put Frank Worthing on the air to share his testimony of how he had come out of the homosexual lifestyle and he called his ministry the Brother Frank Ministry and it was a series of at least three to five programs of 15 minutes and it make a long story shorr, 0pin the future he ended up giving his testimony on major television networks and I am humbly and proud to say without pride,  that I was the first one to put his testimony and Ministry on the Airways and then one day or night Frank words and had a dream to go and visit Kent Philpot the head of the open door Ministries and small denomination that came out of the Jesus movement and had bookstores to draw people into the open door churches and his office was behind the main bookstore of the mother Church in San Rafael and Kent was working on a book called the Third Sex and for nobody up to this point, had spoke  about or written a contemporary book on the subject and during the Jesus Movement for example and AIDS hadn't been in the picture yet and this was what one would call a preemptive strike by the Holy Ghost,pppk inspiring Kent and Kent wrote Frank Warden into his book and his story and put his address in the book and or contact number and people begin flooding Frank with telephones calls and letters saying how blessed they were to hear of his coming out for the Lord and for at that time and even today it was believed by the liberal media established and brainwashed collegians that people were born homosexuals and couldn't be changed and here was a major example of someone that not only came out of the homosexual lifestyle. But eventually married and together him and his wife carried on a Ministry called The Lighthouse Ministry in San Rafael California and after first together with Kent Philpott started what was called love in action Ministry and eventually as a result of this book and so much correspondence and attention coming to him apparently that he became the unofficial head of what came to be known as Exodus International. A 0cover Ministry for all other Ministries reaching out to homosexual gays for Christ and of course Frank Worthen was invited on the national Circuit of talk shows, including Phil Donovan and other shows no doubt of which I can't remember and still holding on to the fac that I was the first to let him share his testimony and Ministry in the media and on radio and but it was Kent Philpott's book, The Third Sex that really put Frank Worthen into the Limelight and although eventually Exodus International ran its course and Love In Action also the ministry that Frank Worthen was the  head of along with Kent Philpott as a sponsor and Frank Worthen also was given an office and position as a pastor in the church eventually, to the open door of which can Philpot pastored and as aforementioned Frank  married and eventually together with his wife started the lighthouse International Ministry in San Rafael, to reach homosexual gays for Christ until he's gone to be with the Lord. And to get things straight Kent Pholpott was not a homosexual and neither ways Michael Payton and one day Frank Worthen came to me after leaving our little congregation and moving on to the Open Door Church and eventually becoming a co-pastor and said to me that he had a second dream and that in the dream he was told that I was his Elder, "in the Lord" for he was older then me and that was comforting to know. For I virtually never saw him again, pafter he moved on to the Church of Open Door. Meanwhile wow Frank Worthen was still playing the organ in our little church block on Seminary Hill he and Michael Peyton started a thrift store for our congregation in San Rafael and Michael remodeled this storefront like only I could imagine her I had not such skills and apparently he got them from his father who was in the sheet metal business and had to know a lot about constructing construction and Contracting and putting in sheet metal conductors in buildings for heat and air conditioning and he even remodeled the bathroom or toilet area and to me he was a proverbial wizard at it and Frank Worthing stocked the thrift store with all kinds of things from the black market Import and Export store that he was Partners in still with his former gay lover and at the store was an amazing piece of work and all together by the love and the most Frank Worthen and Michael Payton and but this was not Michael's calling to manage a Church Thrift Store and his ambition was to be a doctor and but instead he eventually inherited his father's sheet metal business and no doubt was the best employer that people ever had for at Michael's memorial the chapel was full to capacity with his employees and Friends saying goodbye to at the large Funeral Chapel of which his memorial was held at this part of Michael's life was part of the legacy of the Jesus movement of what he was a deacon and a soldier and a street witnesser and a guitar player and singer and helped in our radio programs as an announcer and contributed with music and then he met the love of his life named Carol who Fellowship also in our church and his love and devotion was so great that he had three wedding ceremonies believe it or not and the third cultivated in The Wedding Chapel in which we used to meet in and had moved down to another Chapel called Montgomery Chapel at the foot of Seminary Hill and before moving to our storefront in San Anselmo and the chapel was filled with people of which could hold a couple of hundred people is my estimation or at least a hundred or more attended and it was a glorious and formal wedding  after having a ceremony in our little church congregation and fellowship and even my son was dressed in a tuxedo when he was just 5 or 6 years old and was the ring barer and Michael's mother was there and I presumed his father and another minister performed the wedding and I was kind of on the sideline for I already preformed his second wedding and I  had been battling and suffering from depression and burnout from all the ministry activity that I have been involved in and things were kind of a blur to me at the time and I was about to end or head into the greatest crisis of my life up to that time for the church had ran its course and all of those in their late teens and early twenties we're getting married and moving on to Novato the town north of Marin County North of San Rafael where rents were more reasonable and one can raise a family for my wife for and I were living in the heart of Marin County and one of the richest counties in California and sometimes on and off is the richest along with San Mateo County which is south of San Francisco and people just couldn't afford to raise a family in a heart of Marin County and because my in-laws owned the house so we could continue living in San Anselmo and our disciple house and homeless house ministry had ran its course and we were renting to some College of Marin students the same college that Robin Williams attended and lost his first talent contest and the radio Ministry had ran its course and the television Ministry that we helped pray up and that my brother was chief engineer and manager of had when is course and my wife and I and two children and eventually a third settled to a life of contemplation and for some 3 years eventually when everything is run its course except job my overseas missionary work in Europe and the Middle East and a mission that our church was the first to sponsor in San Juan Del Rio Mexico of which is another story and about 5:00 about by this time I had suffered a complete nervous breakdown and burn out and couldn't leave my home eventually for 3 years contemplating and meditating and praying and studying and it had become my greatest and most severe and austiar and ascetic  Monastery experience and my wife was very supportive and had a part-time job with her family and we had income, coming in from the students down below and there was no reason for me to leave the house anymore because all the other Ministries had run their course and our home was like a Garden of Eden in miniature and even a perennial stream ran through it and redwoods grew in our garden and Deerwood come also as well as raccoons and I spent a year in my bedroom recovering from this Mass depression that I was suffering from and I made my way into the living room and camped there and begin studying etymology, dictionaries and encyclopedias and I wanted to know the etymological meanings and histories of every word and after a year of doing that with my wife going to Seminary libraries to pick me up books and ordering me books like the most current encyclopedia by random house and the complete Oxford dictionary set in a two volume set and books on etymology like by Reverend skeet and by the editor of the Oxford Dictionary and after a year of doing this sleeping and lying on the floor surrounded by these books I then watch every Christian television show for a year on the two cable channels that we had at the time and we had one of the first and most primitive internet computers like Atari and after a year the Christian television ministers began to repeat themselves and I felt okay this is a cycle and it's time to move on again and this time on Thanksgiving Day I was able to walk away from my home for the first time and walk across town to my mother-in-law's lavish Hillside home with a view to spend Thanksgiving dinner with her and my family and what caused this Great Depression and dark night of the Soul I can only attribute to Satan wanted to sift me like wheat like Jesus told Peter that Satan has desired to sift him like wheat and but that he had prayed for Peter that is Faith fail not and my faith was tested like never before and there was a continuous darkness and depression in the background of my mind and it was so dark that I could not feel hope or faith and or love at the time in my heart and soul as my mind struggled with this complete darkness and blackness of the spirit in the spiritual life or world and I had to learn to completely walk by faith and not by sight and not by feeling but by the word of God and God's promises in the Bible and that became my only light in the Darkness where I could not see the next step that I was taking and I was certainly walking through the valley of the shadow of death and I had constant suicidal feelings and thoughts  both day and night and they never left me and even traveled into my sleep with me of which is usually where people can escape from their pains and depressions and anxieties and go into another world and forget and yet these feelings traveled with me into my sleep also and I kept breathing and hoping against hope and not feeling any hope and only believing and not feeling any faith for faith is not a Feeling but it is the evidence of Things Not Seen or even felt and all pain will eventually be forgotten as Jesus spoke of a woman and childbirth and being able to forget the pain as soon as a child is born and God bless us with forgetfulness of our immediate pains and sorrows and distresses and fears and I vowed to myself that I would never use the words worry or doubt or fear or anxiety or hopelessness again and even though I have failed a number of time since in keeping my vow to myself about using these words and nevertheless I have never told anybody to start worrying about anything and for worrying accomplishes nothing and I have a place that word my heart in life with the word concern and concerning fear and the fear of God the Bible says that perfect love casts out all fear and God is love so I never tell people that are his children to fear God for God is our father and those without love and outside of the family of God and who are not born again and yes they are fearful because of their consciousness of the evil that they are doing and But ultimately as the tree of the knowledge of Good and Evil of which the Lord told Adam and Eve not to eat, was not the tree of evil for Pure Evil does not exist in God's universe for God is love and tree was a mixture of the knowledge of Good and Evil and not Pure Evil and for pure evil cannot exist in God's universe of goodness of which is greater than any evil or Darkness and if one feels hopeless or lacks the feeling of Hope and just remember again that hope is not a Feeling for it is a faith in believing and believing is a verb and something active and by walking forward and moving forward in faith no matter how dark with the only light is the light of God's prophetic word and the words of the Bible and scriptures to walk upon and when nothing else feels or looks right and one feels so condemned by the devil who is called the Accuser of the brethren and who accuses the Brethren day and night according to the scriptures to be continued and edited from voice to text warts and all and after I came out of that horrific experience, I was so happy and free and glad to be free of not only anxiety but of what is called in religious circles severe scruples of which nothing you do feels right before the Lord and that everything you do seems wrong and not right and not good enough and even to the point where I was afraid to move or roll over in bed I lift my arm without feeling some type of horrible guilt and condemnation before everything I did and thought that every move I made and I got to the point where I would be standing in the kitchen in my pajamas and my wife would leave to go to her part-time job and when she got back I was still virtually standing in the same position I'm afraid to move and was frozen and again I was so happy to be released from this fear of doing everything wrong and constant condemnation and anxiety and I thought that everybody would be happy with me and I begin to do all the things that I was afraid to do when I was in that agoraphobic state and I sailed down the coast as far as Monterey in a small 25 ft wood sailboat and I was planning on taking my family to Israel for the summer to do missionary work that I had already been partners with a Christian Missionary couple in a restaurant and hotel business of which we ran at night and I had already rented a two-bedroom flat in Bethlehem overlooking what was called The Shepherd's field and I had bought in the Volkswagen Beetle Bug used there and I felt that I had accomplished or have done all the groundwork necessary to bring my family for a summer and my in-laws and specially in my father-in-law didn't think I was healed right and or was thinking right and even though a Christian psychiatrist analyze me prior to going into this long and 3-year period of being cloistered in my home he had told me that what I was experiencing was the same thing that sister Teresa of Avila experienced and who founded The Cloisters Nun Society of the Carmelite Order of where the sisters never left there monasteries and or homes and likened my experience to hers and as I was starting to cloister myself at first for 45 days and then for 3 months and then for 3 years and my wife never complained or showed any distress, for I was home all the time and with the kids watching television from my living room floor and I was the ultimate stay at home Dad and even though like kids had to step over me to walk to the living room sometime and all my books scattered in a circle around me and so ultimately due to the rich and powerful influence of my extremely wealthy and politically Powerful and hedonistic father-in-law who was a self-described heathen and for he had a deep resentment against religion and Christians. For his aunt had disinherited him for being a heathen and he even laughed about it and kind of dance and saying that he was a heathen and that he was a heathen and I told my mother-in-law and she said he was just joking and he also told me he was Jewish and my mother-in-law also said he was joking and about that I don't think so! Even though he was raised by Christian Science parents and Jewish people tend to migrate to the  Christian Science churches and he sure did act amazingly miserly and told me I would never get a thing before I married his daughter and that's why he thought I married  his daughter for his money and I wouldn't marry his daughter until I was assured that she was born again Christian and I even signed over my community property rights to my wife under pressure and duress of course to prove that I didn't marry his daughter for money and after signing the papers at the Republic Title and  Trust Company in San Rafael I looked up at my mother-in-law and my wife and I said slowly and delibertly that I hope I didn't just sign my family away and it was certainly what I did and I woke up to a unexpected divorce of which looking back my late father-in-law had enginered and by threatening to disinherit her if she went with me to Israel for instance and my mother-in-law threatened to put my wife under conservatorship and my sister-in-law Linda that told me she was already under her conservativeship and I thought I was the head of my house and the head of my wife in biblical terms and it was all a farce and I found myself being given 72 hours to leave my home and my children and with a restraining order on me for three Yeats not to contact my children and I was proverbly driven from the face of the Earth and onto the water and the movie Nightmare on Elm Street was playing that week and I lived on Elm Street with Johnny Depp at his first major role and all looked dismal and bleak and I was thoroughly broadsided and was  left in consternation and confusion and proverty overnight so to speak andc again driven from the face of the Earth, metaphorically speaking and onto my leaky 30 ft boat on the San Francisco Bay off of Sausalito and for the next going into 39 years since 1984 the year the big brother and came  to find out that my big brother was my late father-in-law and the former supervisor of the richest county in California and I was powerless and penniless to hire a lawyer to defend myself against the divorce and I let my wife take everything rather than drag my kids through divorce  divorce court and to make them choose who to live with Mom or Dad and it took a long time for me to realize that it wasn't my wife's fault and  that all this happened and went down, for it was a highly engineered and groomed experience by my in-laws, as my brother and sister-in-law had moved to Southern California and I had no family left in Northern California to lean on or to stay with and was thus exiled to my cold and leaky boat until it sank some 20 years later during a  storm and after a year of living in  a 20 foot sailboat, someone donated a 50 foot ferro  cement Sail sailboat that had have been converted into a houseboat and was able to go through 100 miles per hour and more winds, on San Francisco Bay, without having to be in a slip and paying rent, of which I couldn't afford anyway and during this time virtually all my friends forsook me thinking that I must have done something terrible wrong like job's friends accused job of all kinds of things that he never did and it was all out of thier imachinations and Imaginations and picking away at any doubt about Job, instead of picking up his faith and Michael Payton was the only one who wrote me a beautiful letter in calligraphy hand writing, to comfort me the best he could and 39 years later after laboring administering with my hands in Sausalito and eventually bringing together a small congregation and anchor outs and Waterfront people and Michael Payton popped his face from the park and peeking over a wall looked at me and I didn't know who he was and thought he was just the person curious about our patio church meeting, in front of the library and then he came to our service and begin talking to me and I didn't know who he was and I didn't recognize him for it had been some 38 years since I seen him and I didn't recognize him at all anymore, for his beard had turned long and  gray and he had gained a lot of weight and as he was talking about the church services at the Seminary Chapel I asked him how he knew and when was he there and for I had a mistake him for for a bearded Guru  looking person who had gone all the way to India looking for the truth and went into a Buddhist monastery and the Buddhist priest told him the truth with Jesus Christ and he returned back to the United States as a Christian and I thought it was the same gentleman and I asked him what his name was and he said Michael Payton and I was floored and amazed and wowed and after 50 years, after first meeting Michael and him being a part of our Church Fellowship and a Deacon in my eyes and  I thought in my heart  that it was a miracle and he contributed a few thousand dollars to help buy food for our little Mission congregation and Church Fellowship,  before he went to be with the Lord recently in 2023 as i write this and on the same day that his beloved wife had gone to be with the Lord and I'll never forget his kindness and love and how he even took in an eighty five year old man into his heart and even into his bed with him, when he lived in the disciple house downstairs,  in our home after the gentleman had an argument with his daughter and left her house and Mike took him in and even put him in his own bed until the elderly and distinguished gentleman made  peace with his daughter and returned to they're well to do neighborhood and time and space would fail me to say more about Michael a man who has never been heard saying a cross word or criticism about anyone and was kind to everyone and would have made and excellent doctor and but the lord had other ans for him  and to be continued in the next chapter of this testimonial of my life and Ministry and loves and brotherhoods and friends ....to write and send support to feed and minister to our mission church

Chapter Two/Testimonial/ 60's Runaway Arriving back too San Francisco Bay Area/by Peter Romanowsky CEO/President of the New Covenant Evangelistic Association Inc.

A story almost unbelievable, as a young runaway Hippie from Los Angeles, during the Summer of Love and returning back to Marin County in the San Francisco Bay Area where I lived before for a time and after hitchhiking from my parents home, in San Fernando  Valley a suburb of Los Anges. I eventually became the head of a Commune of four teenage girls and my best friend and we were  living it up on the hip life and in a beautiful Hillside brand new home, in the Redwoods in San Anselmo California, Marin County. I fell in love with one of the young girls as we were all the same age and had just turned 18 and after giving up my last besetting sin, of which I was at that  time was a teenage Marijuana user and gave it up for Jesus and was  Born Again by the Holy Ghost which entered into my heart and a voice came out of my chest saying you're forgiven and again saying, you're forgiven and for the first time in my life I felt peace with God and all my fears of God disappeared and I felt like I had a clear channel to the father and of course looking back it was the Holy Spirit, speaking from my heart and I initially thought I was losing my mind from all the teenage years of drug abuse and experimentation and I thought I was having a super flashback and that I was losing my mind, for when someone has a spiritual or Supernatural experience for the first time in their life the first thing initially one feels is the fear of the unknown experience and then after imagining me being taken away in an ambulance and  I realized that I was not losing my mind but that I was having a supernatural experience, for the first time in  my life and I felt peace in my mind and joy in my heart the two things all of us run away hippies from the 60s were searching after and after the initial experience and shock of the unknown as someone once said that the word fear not is mentioned 365 times in the Bible and I haven't looked it up but easy to find with a  Bible Concirdance and virtually every time an angel appeared to someone in the Bible the first thing the angel would say is "fear not" and the first thing the Holy Spirit told me was that I was forgiven and in a beautiful feminine  voice, like a receptionist saying welcome aboard. After marrying one of the young ladies in the commune, who was the youngest daughter of the Marin County Supervisor at the time named Ernest Niles kettenhofen. I remember seeing his name when I was homeless and hitchhiking on, campaign posters and I had no idea that I would become his son-in-law someday. He was so rich and powerful and so influential, that I was awestruck initially and like my dream had come true, of marrying a rich girl and be happy for the rest of my life, but since I was born again and now knew Jesus personally and had become a part of the family of God, his wealth and power and influence, seemed like nothing to me, compared to the Kingdom of God, that was now in my heart as Jesus said that the Kingdom of God is within you and Jesus was now and is my king and even Elvis Presley said when somebody called him "The King" his reply was there was no King but Jesus. And well anywhere that was my story, I lost my train of thought and AND, may not be a proper way to start a sentence in modern American English, and but in King James Bible it is allowed and as I was saying about my late father-in-law and his wealth and his power of which was almost and still is beyond description. He was called the man with the Midas touch in our major and primary paper called The Marin Independent Journal and that everything he touched turned to gold and was winning all the time and accumulating properties and political influence and was an acquaintance of the late President Eisenhower of whom he hosted on his Liberty ship in the Mediterranean during the war and  when he was a Merchant Marine Sea Captain and he said he also hosted that famous General Patton and he was appointed also, to the then, State Harbors and Navigation Commission by Governor Pat Brown and reappointed by Governor Ronald Reagan and was the chairman of the California state Maritime Academy in Vallejo and the Chairman of the Board of our main hospital in Marin County called Marin General Hospital and initiated the founding of the mental health ward Wings A and B and his name is in a bronze plaque in front of the mental health wing of Marin General Hospital and I felt like that's where he wanted me to be, after I told him that he needed Jesus when I first met him. He was standing in his luxury hillside home with counting six bathrooms and a basement room that looked like the proverbial block in length and he was wearing a shabby suit and overcoat and he was standing in the middle of his living room looking down like he was frozen and couldn't move and so I took the initiative when I first met my future father-in-law by coming up to him and helping him snap out of it by saying that "You need Jesus" and pointing to him and of which may have been rude to point to him, but I can't remember and I no doubt from memory, just came up to him with a big heart and a big smile and said to him that "You need Jesus"! Well his reaction was he started to shake like he was grumbling and kind of came back to life so to speak for I don't know how long he was in that funk of a depression. Well anyways that was the beginning of the end for me before Becky is youngest daughter and I were married and he took me aside before the wedding in his luxury home and pointed his finger at me and said that you're not going to get nothing, or anything was more his exact words thinking that I was marrying him for his money. I Shrugged him off as just another non-believer and not making much sense at to me at the time and thought that virtually he was just being over sensitive , paranoid or over emotional or just joking, it was not a joke and in  fact he really meant it and he kept his word until the day he died and that's another story and back to his power and influence as a Marin County Supervisor, he probably served as Chairman of the Board also, for he was a sea captain with something like a hundred and fifty voyages on Matson Line as Captain, too Hawaii and back and as being a Sea Captain and an Alpha Dog, it's hard to imagine him being second fiddle to anyone. He owned some of the largest properties in Sausalito for instance, his office building that was size of a third world state capital building and that was needed was a dome called the 30-30 Bridgeway Office Building and his office was inside, of a walk-in safe and it looked like Scrooge Mcduck's walk-in safe except it there were no bags of money around and the office safe is still there and you can stop by the building on Bridgeway and ask them to see it for themselves and it was used to lock up top secret plans on the Liberty Ships that were being built here in Sausalito for instance and he also owned the airplane hangar looking size building called the Industrial Center Building and he also owned the underwater rights to the property behind the Yellow Ferry and owned the largest condo project in Sausalito called the Anchorage after first teaming up with one of the Kingston Trio and then buying him out and he also owned a whole block in the front of the Sausalito City Hall and the Library of which he developed from it originally being a nursery here in Sausalito and is where the famous Sausalito Art Festivals began and aside from the Sausalito holdings he also in the Sausalito Yacht Harbor owned a luxury 55 ft Garden Catch called the Night  Wind of which he eventually donated to the California State Maritime Academy in Vallejo, as it was his Alma Marta. He also owned one of the most fabulous ranches in California originally called the S Bar S and also known as the Lost Springs Ranch of which was the entire Valley behind the extinct volcano called Mount Konocki in Clear Lake California, of which lake is the largest natural lake in California and his Ranch was around 1200 Acres and it was breathtaking and beautiful and he had a Hatari type of rough terrain vehicle to cruise his ranch and had a dirt landing strip for  airplanes and ponds and rentedor leased the pastures out for cattle grazing and at one point had some Lamas and there were approximately 5 buildings houses, buildings and cabins on the property, from what I understand the main Ranch House was a former Stagecoach Inn and  building and was donated to the town of Lakeport down the road to be a museum and my children's mother who is treasure of the Family Foundation, wrote the check of some $175,000 if I recall, to have the Stagecoach Inn to move the Inn, down the road some miles on wheels and as amazing as that was and is and I could almost imagine, what it looked like for an Old Stagecoach Inn to go rolling down the road some miles away, from the ranch to be used as a Museum in Lakeport the capital city of Lake County, California and I used to go horseback riding and learned to saddle horses with every, doing it before and they had a heated pool in the family house on the ranch, that my late father-in-law used to use as a hunting lodge and taking up to 30 of his friends up there for hunting, including even his personal mechanic and no doubt there were judges and attorneys and financiers and bankrollers and authorities there as he was also a Marin County Supervisor and the richest and most lust County in California and was he not allowed to meet with any other Supervisors, even for coffee, without an observer under what's called the brown Act and I sometimes wonder if he invited fellow Supervisors up there at the same time again the Broen Act and will at least they were witnesses!? if he did and I think that's where a lot of the shenanigans were hatched and business deals and other nefarious deals were done  and well anyways Becky and I with the children, would go up there regularly and it was a lot of fun and very beautiful place. He also owned Tahoe ski Bowl and made the children of my mother a limited partner and a beautiful beach house at Dillon Beach and a small farm on Bradford Island in the delta with a house and a dock where he could go duck hunting also, like he did at his Ranch in a Duck Blind, also the beach house had a brand new looking Cabana for guests in the back and I used to love to go there with my wife and two kids at the time and eventually I had a third child and I am Sarah and well that's another story also and I heard that he was partners In The Bank of Marina fire recall and owned a historic post office building in Mill Valley California in Marin County and said he helped developed downtown Novato a city north part of Marin County and had a mink farm there and a heat wave kill the Minx and he apparently owned the historic old Courthouse building in the center of Marin County's largest town and I watched it burned down one night, after a young homeless guy I met a new said that he had accidentally set the place on fire while lighting newspapers in the building and the place obviously did not have enough security and my in-laws No Doubt made good money on the deal for the property was sold it a couple of major Banks that were put in its place of this historical an Irreplaceable Old Courthouse and I'm not saying that he owned all these properties and more like the first house he ever owned and built in El Cerrito if I recall East Bay of San Francisco and houses in Santa Rosa and a large building that he rented out to a church in Santa Rosa and the list seems to go on and on and that's just what I know of or have heard of of his influence and as well and his power and he told me that he was certified genius and a member of Mensa and I doubted him not and so this is the type of person that I had to contend with over his youngest daughter Becky, he told Becky to be stubborn with a grin, asked her if she would like the apartment building in San Anselmo next to the mortuary and also which is next to George Lucas's property and when I would go overseas on a missionary journey for instance they buy her luxury Garden home with Redwoods,  in San Anselmo and even made her manager of the apartment complex called the Anchor Vista prior of which her family owed also and that  t we move too from our Hillside house across the road in San Anselmo and even bought her a brand new car which turned out to be a lemon because my late mother-in-law bought it and didn't know anything about cars and the thing burned oil from day one and it was brand new and it was lemon colored and if I had been asked my opinion having been an apprentice mechanic as a teenager and for an entire summer and I wouldn't have had anything to do with that car and but I was overseas and they also gave her credit cards like a gas card and  department store card and I am overseas doing the missionary evangelism and having healing services and speaking in churches and being supported along the way with some major help from Becky and our home church that I was pastoring when for instance we ran out of money in Turkey, a Muslim country and we couldn't find any churches to minister in and receive support and that is another story itself and I'm so thankful that she always managed to send money and aid on the road, in a foreign country like, Turkey with no churches to help us along to the next destination of which was Cypress the island and the stepping stone to Israel and Jerusalem our final destination and before I go on I want to digress back to the beginning of my story, about running away from home at the age of seventeen and hitchhiking back to Marin County on the north side of the Golden Gate Bridge where I lived and went to Redwood High School in my junior year and the beginning of my senior year in high and before that I attended Analy High for my junior year and in the year that Martin Luther King was assinated in 1964? and lived on Ross Station Road in Forestville California off the Gravristine highway  and attended Analy High in Sabostopol before moving with my parents and family to 66 Hillcrest Road in Larkspur California and I woke up, for we reached our destination at night and could see the San Francisco Bay from are a luxury Old Redwood estate home of which our yard looks like a national park. Now I was in another world after growing up in the suburbs of Los Angeles and originally living in Redondo Beach is a child before moving to Reseda and then to Encino and eventually to Tarzana, from which I left again after the Summer of Love in San Fernando Valley. Towards the end of 1966, I was busted and charged with possessing marijuana while I was with a best friend in front of a liquor store in Tarzana and I did not possess the marijuana my best friend did and he freaked out when the police pulled up and instead of putting the 1 oz bag of Mexican Brown down his pants like he should have and the cops would never have searched it he instead, freaked out and wasn't thinking and through the plastic bag on the ground and peed on it and thinking that the police wouldn't pick it up if he peed on it I thought it was just trash or garbage and how wrong he was and strange things happen when people are under sudden shock surprise and such and one must have a plan not to panic under such circumstances whatever they may be and thinking straight to clear headed instead of panic mode of which makes the one thinking, unreasonably. And as one of the young cops was taking back off of a portable radio we had looking for more drugs I made a slide remark and laughed about him looking inside the radio when he had already made his bus and now protection from the look on his face see different like my little heart and I was arrested along with my best friend and I was taken to the West Valley Police Department of which had a very bad reputation ation for police brutality and this all white neighborhood and part of West Sacramento Valley and while being booked one of the arresting officers I was joking and lsughing in the front of the other offices that were there in the station and asked if I knew how to sign my name on the booking and I jokingly in a snide remark kind of way said, in retort and in a self-defense sort of manner,I told him "no" and why don't you sign my name and the cop I remember he was about five feet ten and heavy set with red Irish or Scotch hair and then he pushed me violently too the ground and fell backwards,on my back on the cement floor and when I open my eyes and looked up I saw all these cops in the circle around me laughing and it reminded me of the movie The Laughing Policemen and I didn't think it was funny and then the officer drove me to the worst jail in downtown Los Angeles called that Georgia Street jail and on the way he was telling you that I was going to the worst three other Los Angeles for the weekend because the South Central Los Angeles Juvenile Hall only takes in New prisoners on Mondays and weekdays and not on weekends and so I spent the weekend and it was jail in Los Angeles and believe me I was glad to see your patch sky after that experience and to be continued in chapter three and subtitled my experience in South Central Juvinile Hall in the heart of down town Los Angeles and if you have been blessed by the Lord reading this testimony and would like to send the contribution or even just a tip you can through PayPal or zelle number 415-374-0734 and make a note if you would like a tax exempt receipt and thank you very much in advance and much love!
