Happy New Years!!!!
After spending some months in mediation, the essential oils healer returned to Menri Monastery in mid-October. He brought all of the essential oils with him that he had purchased with funds from all of you and began treating patients. In November, Toc Dunlap from Creating Hope International (CHI) traveled to India to visit the programs at the monastery and brought small glass bottles and thyme thujanol, which had been requested.
