Shift of the Ages 6 Ahau Newsletter: CALL TO ACTION - Let's Make it Happen!

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Your support is PARAMOUNT to the success of the Shift of the Ages project.

When the website was created at the end of last year, we knew we had been blessed to be able to share the Authentic Mayan Message with the world.  We also knew it would be a lot of work.  It didn’t daunt us; we understood that all would be as it should.  The SHIFT would come, and so would the gathering of positive energy required to create a better existence together.
Wandering Wolf said, “Let the morning come, let the dawn come for the people to have peace and be happy.  Together we are to see our children.  Together we are to see our mountains.  Together we are to see our cities.  Together we are to see our waters.”  His message of hope and empowerment resonates with people of all faiths and beliefs around the globe. 
 
As our small team works long and hard to complete the film, bonus DVD and enhance the projects reach, it becomes evident that we are growing faster than we can keep up.  That’s a good thing, but we NEED YOUR HELP.  
 
This is truly a fragile, volatile, and critical time in the evolution of our species and the planet.  If we hope to create the beautiful outcome the Mayan Prophecy avails us with, we MUST awaken and do our part in co-creating the SHIFT.
 
The film and ever expanding Shift of the Ages projectwas initially funded out of the pockets of our Film Director, Steve Copland, and Joseph Giove, SOTA's Executive Producer.  Both of these men have also donated thousands of hours to bring us what we now have; a film close to completion, and an initiative of global proportion.  It has been a long road for these men, so let us take a moment to close our eyes and send them both our warmest intentions in appreciation of all they have done for us!
 
Our investors and Ambassadors are those amazing beings who have continued to sustain, stabilize, and expand this project.  Let us also take a moment to visualize our warmest intentions in appreciation of all they have done to increase the reach of the project and the tools we all use to make this happen!
 
Many people involved in this project have gone over and beyond what some would consider reasonable to contribute to what is most likely the most important focus of our time.  They have done so with full lives, relationships to manage, and with other business to attend in an effort to pay their bills.  Just like you!  Now more than ever, it matters where we put our time and energy.  Not just to provide for our families physical needs, but also for their spiritual ones.
 
Let us now ALL step up and offer what we can of ourselves to catalyze their efforts! 
 
As we all know, time is of the essence, so while we have grown to a healthy base of 5,000 SOTA newsletter recipients, there is still an entire world that we need to reach to help spread this wonderful message of hope and love to all beings everywhere.  The SHIFT NEEDS your energetic contribution of time, talent and funding.  We hope that you feel inspired to participate and contribute as your SHIFT prompts you.  Please take a look at our ‘Call to Action’ article, which is filled with ideas on how you can do just that!
 
Be the change you wish to see in the world!
 
Blessed may you be, by the wisdom of our Ancestors.
 
~ Your Shift of the Ages Team

SOTA Call-to-Action

THIS IS YOUR PROJECT.  This is our project.  The changes we are experiencing and are yet to experience can be effected by how we live our lives and how we connect with others.  The Shift of the Ages project and mission is to bring all together in a consciously peaceful existence.  it's YOUR SHIFT right now.  It's OUR SHIFT together.  Now is the time to work together to increase SOTA's world-wide outreach efforts.  Together, we can and will make it happen.  Things are tougher than ever before, for everyone and for a reason.  We are embarking on a new era, and working together to effect change.  We MUST awaken and do our best to assist in the awakening of the world.  Only together will we create the beautiful outcome the Mayan Prophecy avails us with.  

That said, this is a formal 'Call-to-Action' - inviting YOU to GET INVOLVED.  

How can you get involved?  Well, that is up to you.  IF you can imagine it, we're here to help you create it.  You come, and we build the teams to drive the project in the direction Wandering Wolf leads us.  Some people have given of themselves by participating on our discussion forum, offering their time to help with language translations and creating musical scores for Wandering Wolf's videos.  Behind the scenes: website maintenance and upgrades, graphic design, marketing, content writing, inquiry responses, project management, volunteer coordination, etc. ALL EFFORTS are appreciated and... more so, will literally determine the direction of this project.   A BIG hug/smile/nod of appreciation to them, as well as to those of you who are reading this now, getting excited about how YOU too can (further) assist the SHIFT!

New Wandering Wolf Video - "Shoeshine Boy"

"Shoeshine Boy" is a video clip offering a window into the early life of Wandering Wolf, and tells how an uneducated illiterate shoeshine boy learned some of the tools necessary to make change in governing western policy.  Although he speaks Spanish, Wandering Wolf's native tongue is Quiche Maya so he had to learn Spanish on his own.  Even though he has no formal education, today Wandering Wolf is not only the current President of Mayan Council of Guatemala, he is also serving his people as Guatemala's first ever Extraordinary Itinerant Ambassador of Indig

The SOTA Collaborative is an exciting organically developing effort to co-create the Shift!

Translation Volunteers Work for the SHIFT

The SOTA Translation Project is really moving along!  We have received the assistance of almost  50 volunteers.  They are working on the subtitles for the Wandering Wolf video clips, newsletter issues, and articles from the SHIFT, 2012 and Prophecy.  You won't see all of their work quite yet, as we are getting ready to implement an entire Shift of the Ages website translation option, which will activate all of the work in one place!  In the meantime, we have posted some of the article translations on SHIFT, 2012 and Prophecy for you to enjoy.

Here at the Shift of the Ages, we are a an every-growing team of individuals just like you...with a variety of backgrounds, talents, and gifts to contribute to the SHIFT.  As the project grows and the Authentic Mayan Message is passed on around the world, more people come to contribute to this great cause.

So far, the languages we have team members for are:  Finnish, Dutch, German, Spanish, French, Lithuanian, Swedish, Danish, Polish, Portuguese, Greek and Russian.

We can use more help in these languages, and DEFINITELY need some help in the many languages not mentioned here.
