Feb 14 - A Special Day - A Special Meal


Valentines Day 2026 - Celebrating our first Anniversary

It wasn't a difficult decision to go back to Baton Rouge Decarie to celebrate our anniversary.  It was the scene of our first date in late 2024 - and has played host to several memorable dinners since.  The challenge was that our anniversary is also Valentine's Day - and we wanted to feel like the only people in the restaurant.

We decided on an early dinner and got to the restaurant just before 3pm.  It was already abuzz, however we were ushered to a wonderful booth in the back of the restaurant.  Within a matter of moments our waiter arrived - Peter - who had served us only a short number of weeks ago.  We ordered a big Heineken each and Peter suggested we try the Crispy Brussels Sprouts as an appetizer.  We complied!  Inside 5 minutes we were enjoying our beers - and the absolutely wonderful Brussels Sprouts - drizzled with Mike's Hot Honey, in a sesame and tahini dressing with maple candied pecans.

It was hardly another five minutes following completion of our appetizer that our mains arrived.  Christy had a medium-rare filet mignon with veggies and a loaded baked potato and I opted for a rack of ribs, fries and coleslaw.  Peter had asked the chef to give Christy Brussels Sprouts as veggie - and her plate came loaded with really tasty sprouts!  For the next 15-20 minutes we thoroughly enjoyed our food - casting regular glances of thorough enjoyment at each other.  When we were both finished there was hardly a scrap left on either plate - and as I said to Christy - 'our Mums would be proud of us for eating all our food!'

We were sated - and happy - but while on most occasions we would not opt for dessert - dinner at Baton Rouge is one clear exception.  We chose one piece of Raspberry, White Chocolate Cheesecake (with 2 forks) which Peter served to us with a candle!  It was an amazing way to close a beautiful afternoon!

Regular readers of my blog know that my hope and goal is to awaken people to the Heaven on Earth moments (and more) that we experience in our daily lives.  We realize our lives are charmed and monitored closely by our Father - God (Noel).  This was evidenced by the fact that we had the same waiter - Peter - who we connected with weeks earlier - even though we were in a completely different part of the restaurant.

Baton Rouge is not cheap - but if you want a special, first class meal in a beautiful environment - I urge you to try Baton Rouge Decarie.  

All my love,

A Letter to Parker Ewing

Image
A Message to Parker Ewing—and to the World By Ross Harvey  Recently, I received a message from a man named Parker Ewing, a Christian and owner of Ewing Pools in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He wrote: “Ross, you need help. None of this is remotely true. Embrace reality.” Parker, I’ve read your words, and I understand your concern. I know that what I’ve been sharing can be difficult to grasp—especially within the bounds of traditional thinking. But I must now speak with complete clarity, not just to you, but to all who may be watching, wondering, or dismissing what they don’t yet understand. I am Jesus Christ. I have returned. Not in myth, metaphor, or imagination—but in the flesh. Not to start a religion, but to fulfill a promise. Not to divide, but to heal. Not to condemn, but to awaken. And Christy —the woman joined to me in divine unity—is the Holy Spirit incarnate , the living embodiment of God’s comfort, wisdom, and truth in feminine form. We are not here by accident. We are not ...

An Amazing Day!

  Feb 14, 2025 was a VERY BIG day for me!  It marked the day I married  the love of my life - Christy Anne Strike - in her church - St. Ansgar's Lutheran Church on Grand Blvd in NDG - and in front of a good number of her and our friends.  Christy's and my path was a brisk one - when people ask us how long we have known each other for we have a great story!  I say 'we met at the NDG Food Depot in late November 2024.'  She says ' we met at the NDG YMCA when she was 19 and I was 21 - and we played doubles badminton against each other!  But that is not the story. It was God who brought us together very powerfully - on that cool November day in 2024.  I knew i liked her from the first words which came out of her mouth which were; 'I Love Brussels sprouts' - which I countered with 'so do I!'  We shared a wonderful conversation on a myriad of topics which gave me some insight into the depth of her personna.  I left The Depot that day wanting mu...

The Key to the Universe

My story is a long and amazing journey.  In January of 2004, as I lay comatose in a bed in the Surgical Intensive Care Unit of the Montreal General Hospital for 3 days - a reel played on continuous loop in my heart and mind.  It followed my entire life - from my most junior years - to a time which at that point I had not even experienced.  God gave the name of this journey - ' Come Away With Me.  The ongoing story of the life of Ross Harvey .' It is 20 years later and this name - and the journey have stayed ever-present in my heart and mind.  God told me that He would create a series of movies about my journey and would follow this by continuous live streamed episodes - as myself and a group of 300 'Pioneers' traveled across the worlds - seeking out new horizons. Please get my books; Come Away with Me and Rebel With A Cause - which together form the collective of my life's journey - my memoirs.   For the movies, God has told me that there will be no ...
