My Dear Loyal Friends,

I am again overwhelmed by the response from my message.  I probably over reacted to a few comments made by a couple of individuals that challenged my character. The comments referred to me being a phony as to my beliefs in gospel matters. It hurt my heart. I have been advised that I need to refrain from getting too close to those that are seeking knowledge in religious issues. My love for people combined with an absolute love of GOD brings a unique challenge to my soul.

Those that are seeking knowledge, I only ask you to study and keep your heart and mind open to the spirit that directs each of us on a daily basis. We are living in a very unique world in these last days. In my opinion, we need to remain close to the Lord in order to HEAR what needs to be done when things get tough. and they will get tougher. I do not desire to be anything but a friend, a person that will work hard to remain faithful and steadfast to eternal principles when confusion tries to over run our hearts and minds.

I have also finally come to the realization that there are some people that just don't like me and there is nothing I can do about it. That idea has always bothered my because I figured I could find out why and try to fix it. Well, then I wonder why I have such gray hair and always stressed.  ha! 

I  apologize for keeping everyone in the dark on my message. It was a personal matter and I exposed it to the world , and for that I'm sorry. I am doing well, and am very excited about what is coming. I hope you will all remember how much my family and I have loved you, and cared for all you have done for each of us over the years.

The unity amongst my brothers and sister has never been better. Our teams are talking and organizing events that will be positive in the future. The oneness my brother Alan has tried to explain through his foundation "One Heart" along with the willingness of many of my brothers to support this message has started to create a massive move to unite hearts that have supported our family for 50 years. All I can say is. You ain't seen nothing yet. Stick with us little longer and lets have one heck of a party when it's all over!!! (Which could be another 50 years...ha)

Once again, I am sorry for having put out a message that has placed drama on the web. Just so you know,  I might be a little more difficult to corner when it comes to discussions on religion or be a part of sensitive conversations regarding personal issues that need experts. I am not trained to assist in those matters. But what you can expect is a genuine simile and a bear hug when I see you again....

My personal life will be focusing on a few areas that I have always wanted to explore. You will see me involved where healing and health issues remain. I will be kicking all of this off with my first ever Healing Retreat in Belgium in June 2008. My mother always wanted me to do this, and I am now going to follow through at 54 to make that dream come true. Music will always be a part of this interesting venture. I will also be working with a wonderful friend in St. George Utah to help create a little community that you will have to see to believe.

Anyway, I  hope this helps put all the concerns and worries away. Stay tuned, good things are coming....

Your True Friend, 


Merrill Osmond
