The Space Between Endings and Beginnings

As we approach the final Wednesday Evening Service of 2023, I invite you to join us in a special gathering that promises to be both reflective and inspiring.

The transition from one year to the next is a unique period. It's a time when we find ourselves in a delicate space between concluding the old and welcoming the new. This space is not just a temporal gap; it's a moment rich with potential and profound insight. However, navigating this transition can be challenging. Some of us might rush towards new beginnings without fully acknowledging and integrating the lessons of the past year. Others might find themselves clinging to the past, hesitant to step forward into the promising yet unknown future.

Our service this Wednesday, led by Dr. Edward Viljoen, aims to explore this intriguing interlude. We'll discuss how to honor our past experiences while courageously embracing what lies ahead. This session is not just about bidding farewell to the old year but also about preparing ourselves mentally and spiritually for the journey ahead.

Adding to the serenity of the evening will be the meditation music by Rev. Russ Legear, setting the perfect tone for introspection and inner peace.

This service is particularly beneficial for those of you planning to participate in the upcoming "Vision Your Life" workshop in January. Visioning is an empowering spiritual practice that helps you connect with your inner wisdom and goodness. On Sunday, January 7, from 1 to 3 pm, join Rev. Russ for a workshop that promises to be both enlightening and enjoyable.

During the workshop, we will engage in visioning not only for ourselves but also for our Center. Moreover, we'll be creating vision boards, a creative and enjoyable activity that helps manifest the visions received through the process. We'll provide poster boards and various craft materials so you can create a beautiful and meaningful representation of your inner wisdom.

Vision boards serve as visual reminders of our aspirations and dreams. They are not just collages of images and words but are powerful tools that can guide us toward realizing our goals and intentions.

So, whether you're looking to gain clarity for the coming year, seeking to connect deeper with your inner self, or simply want to enjoy a moment of calm and community, our Wednesday Evening Service is the perfect opportunity.

Come be part of this special evening. Let's gather to reflect, release, and ready ourselves for the remarkable journey that awaits us in the new year.

Sign up for the "Vision Your Life" workshop here and mark your calendars for an evening of introspection and inspiration. We look forward to seeing you there!

Your Friend Within - New Year's Day Wednesday Evening Service with Rev. Russ

  For much of my life I went it alone. I thought I had to do everything myself, that there was nobody who was willing to help me. This was a challenging way to approach my life--and it was a difficult path, it turns out, I didn't need to follow.  In our experiential New Year's Day Wednesday Evening Service (try saying that three times fast!), I'll share with you a spiritual concept that I wish I knew when I was determined to go it alone: how we can nurture a relationship with what Ernest Holmes calls "The Friend Within," that aspect of our spiritual existence that is available to us 24/7 as our coach and best friend.  Tonight will be filled with music, we will set intentions, and we will connect with our Friend Within so that we might have all the love and support needed to bring that intention to life. I look forward to seeing everyone at the Center at 7pm. -Russ

Energy Flows Where Attention Goes with Edward Viljoen, January 19 2025

This Sunday, I’ll explore the theme, “It Flows.”  I’ve been reflecting on the power that moves through all things, including each of us. Life’s creative power, like the electricity that lights our homes, is always present. Yet, it requires our active participation to flow into the world. Flipping the switch is an act of awareness and intention, and it’s a choice we make every day—whether to direct this energy toward creating, healing, and helping. Together, we’ll consider three key ideas: Awareness is the Key to Using Creative Energy Life’s creative power responds to our awareness. By becoming mindful of our thoughts, we unlock the ability to direct this energy where it’s needed most. Tuning Into the Creative Flow This power doesn’t discriminate; it’s available to all. What sets us apart is how we engage with it. Simple daily practices can help us align with this flow and tap into its limitless possibilities. The Power of Dominant Thoughts What we focus on consistently shapes our e...

"Oneness" - Wednesday Evening Service with Rev. Russ

  #1 - Oneness Spirit (whatever we choose to call the infinite “something”) is the source of all that is, and Spirit is all that is. Everything is made of Spirit and is a unique expression of The Infinite. What is Oneness? We hear this word quite a bit at the Center, but what does it really mean, and how is it useful in my life?  These are just some of the questions we will answer in tonight's Wednesday Evening Service as we embark upon our journey exploring the ten core concepts of the Science of Mind and Spirit. Join us at 7pm for music, freshly baked bread and tea, and an inviting community where we will learn all about Oneness.  See you soon! -Russ
