Dear friends, members, members-to-be
Aloha. As the THC Ministry grows and reaches out to new people and to new lands I feel it's time for me to write this apology so that I can get myself and this ministry into full and healthy integrity with you personally - and with all of life in general.
I'm always 'practicing' my ministry skills and sometimes making corrections to my accounting and bookkeeping systems. This is a relatively new career for me, the 'cannabis sacrament' minister thing. I'm obviously learning as I go.
I want to apologize and then make corrections for any short-comings in my communications or in my actions with you ...
1. if I have forgotten to return your phone call
2. if I have overlooked an email of yours
3. if I have been delayed in getting a kit to you
4. if I have broken any agreement with you
5. if I have not spent enough time with you, or
6. if I have let you down in any other way.
I feel that I want and need to become more effective at serving your needs and those of our other members. How to do it? Own-up to my short-comings, make amends, look forward and then move ahead.
Here's how you can help me, if you would be so kind. Please communicate with me again! Please ask me to return your call or answer your question or send you a kit or whatever is on your mind.
It's truly my pleasure to serve you and to build this ministry, one happy and satisfied person at a time.
I love my work and I want our ministry to be even more successful and dynamic as we spread our message of hope and truth and justice and mercy around this big, beautiful world. Please help me to help you. OK? Mahalo.
Roger
