"A number of readers to a recent article I posted have expressed concern that a number of Lightworkers would be ascending before the mass ascension of humanity and their host planet Gaia. These concerns are based on the belief that these ‘departing’ souls would be forsaking their Lightworker duties for the easy life on a beautiful Neptunian beach, or returning to their home worlds for a blissful family reunion. (We will, but that comes later.) Although it is true that many Lightworkers are tasked with the important role of remaining on Earth to anchor the 5th dimensional ascension frequencies, as well as other vital tasks, there are also a number of Lightworkers whose services are called for from the 5^th dimensional side of the divine plan. You see, although a great many ascended beings from the Galactic Federation and the Spiritual Realms are working tirelessly to support humanity’s ascension, they are not doing all the work for us. It is our ascension after all, and it is up to us to perform every aspect of this process that we can possibly accomplish ourselves. Keeping the dark cabal and their advanced weaponry at bay during these important times, as well as other critical matters including the stabilization of our planet, are some of the tasks better handled by Galactic Federation forces and the Ascended Masters. There are, however, those tasks that can be accomplished by incarnate Lightworkers, such as preparing 5^th dimensional Earth for the anticipated arrival of our fellow human family members, as well as acting as Gatekeepers of the ascension portals, that  are better carried out from a 5^th dimensional vantage point. Many of the Lightworkers scheduled to ascend before the mass ascension of humanity may also return to 3D Earth as diplomats and liaison team members, posts that many have previously trained for before their current incarnation, and final preparations for these assignments would be most called for.  

Although there will be members of our human family departing 3D Earth before the culmination of humanity’s ascension, you can be sure they are ascending to continue their service to humanity and are fulfilling all of their Lightworker responsibilities from beyond the veil, as our ascension is our job, and we must complete all the tasks we are capable of"
