Tonight with Dr. Edward and Rev. Russ: Embrace the New Year with Wisdom - Wednesday, December 27

By

As the year draws to a close, it's time to reflect and prepare for the changes that a new year brings. This December 27th, at 7 pm, we invite you to join our special Wednesday Evening Service at the Center, focusing on "The Space Between Endings and Beginnings." This service will provide insights and practices to help you navigate the transition into the new year with grace and wisdom.


# How to Embrace Change

Embracing change is about acknowledging the flow of life and being open to the new possibilities that come with each ending and beginning. Our upcoming service will explore several ways to do this effectively:

# Acknowledge Uncertainty

It's natural to feel unsure about what the future holds, but learning to accept and even welcome this uncertainty can open the door to unexpected opportunities and growth.

# Consider Feng Shui

Feng Shui, the ancient Chinese art of arranging living spaces, can be a powerful tool in welcoming change. By aligning your environment with your intentions, you can create a supportive space for new beginnings.

# Consult the Oracle

For those who seek guidance beyond the physical, consulting oracles or spiritual tools can provide clarity and direction as you navigate the space between what was and what will be.

# Don’t Just Do Something; Sit There!

In our action-oriented society, it's often beneficial to pause and reflect. This service will encourage you to take a moment to sit with your thoughts and feelings about the past year and the year ahead.

# Practice Self-Care

Self-care is crucial during times of transition. We will discuss ways to nurture your body, mind, and spirit to ensure you're in the best position to embrace the new year.

# Question Common Sense Wisdom

Sometimes, the wisdom we take for granted needs reevaluation. We'll explore how questioning what we assume to be true can lead to deeper understanding and better decisions.

# Write a Letter to Yourself

Writing a letter to your future self is a powerful way to set intentions and articulate your hopes and dreams for the coming year. This exercise can be a meaningful part of your end-of-year ritual.

# Your Suggestions Go Here

This service is not just about imparting knowledge but also about inspiring you to generate your own creative responses to change.

Join Us for an Evening of Reflection and Preparation

Our Wednesday Evening Service is more than just a gathering; it's an opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals, gain new perspectives, and prepare yourself for the year ahead. Whether you're looking to find peace with the past, set intentions for the future, or simply seeking a moment of community and reflection, this service is for you.

Mark your calendars for December 27th at 7 pm and be part of a special evening dedicated to understanding and embracing the space between endings and beginnings. We look forward to seeing you there and embarking on this journey together into the new year.

You Determine Your Welfare - Special Wednesday "Pulpit-Swap" Service with Dr. Edward and Rev. Russ

By
The idea that you determine your welfare speaks to the Science of Mind idea that well-being grows from the choices we make in thought, practice, and community.  Using the book "Basic Ideas of Science of Mind" as our guide, our Wednesday evenings have been exploring the use of our mind, emotions, and actions, to contribute to our spiritual welfare. This Wednesday, join Dr. Edward Viljoen and Rev. Russ Legear at a special location to continue the exploration.  Some context:  Each year our community makes space for our neighbors at the local synagogue to gather more fully for the High Holy Days. In addition to being a gesture of hospitality, it carries a deeper reminder that our welfare is shaped by the choices we make together.  We, in turn, hold our Wednesday Evening service in their beautiful synagogue and you're invited to join us. Science of Mind teaches that the Creative Power of Life responds to the quality of our consciousness, and through spiritual practice we ...

"Spirit Is An Artist" - Wednesday Evening Service with Rev. Russ

By
  Every breath we take, every new friend we make; the tallest snowy mountaintop to the darkest depths of the sea--all is an act of creation. In fact, because Spirit is all there is, that means that we, too, are endlessly creating. Whether we know it or not.  In tonight's Wednesday Evening Service, we continue our exploration of the Ten Core Concepts of the Science of Mind and Spirit with the third--the creative nature of Spirit. We'll share in spiritual exercises designed to grow your awareness of your creative nature so you can tap into it to paint the life of your dreams. And all will be wrapped in an atmosphere of music, freshly baked bread, and loving community.  See you soon! -Russ

How To Be an Instrument for Peace - Wednesdays in July 2026

By
Peace rarely arrives as a single grand event. More my be built from small choices we make in how we listen, how we speak, and how we hold space for one another. This July, five voices from our community offer their own way into that practice, each bringing a different instrument to the symphony. We open the month with Discovering Your Peaceful Voice on July 1, with Dr. Edward Viljoen. Some obstacles to peaceful communication hide in plain sight, disguised as ordinary habits. This talk traces one path toward noticing them, and toward the voice that waits underneath. On July 8, Rev. Siota Belle leads us into Drumming To a Different Beat . There's a rhythm to peace that doesn't always match the pace the world moves at. This gathering explores what it means to find our own tempo, and to trust it even when it differs from the beat around us. July 15 brings Practicing Your Peace with Rev. Russ Legear. Peace as an idea can sound lovely. Peace as a daily practice asks something mo...
