Wednesday Evening Service

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.

  The Science of Mind is a map that can guide you toward a life defined by love and fulfillment. But how does it do that? What ideas are at the core of Ernest Holmes' teaching? Find out tonight and for the next ten weeks as we take a rare opportunity to explore one of Ernest's most concise, yet least known books, Basic Ideas of Science of Mind . In each service we'll explore one chapter and then put it to work for us through spiritual practice.  Tonight we are talking about you and your mind. What is your relationship to your mind? How might you shift it to live with more peace and joy? These are questions we'll answer, 7 pm, at the Center.  See you soon! -Rev. Russ

Our words carry power. They can breathe life into the wonders of our imagination, or they can cause harm. This is why the first agreement in Don Miguel Ruiz’s The Four Agreements is to “be impeccable with your word.” At our upcoming Wednesday Evening Service, we’ll explore how to become more aware of the words we release into the world and the impact they have—on ourselves and on others. When we consciously choose our language, we open the door to shifting our circumstances for the better. Join Rev. Russ this Wednesday and discover how the words you speak can transform your life.

  What does it mean to be Spirit? What does it mean to really feel our spiritual nature, to know that we are a part of the infinite?  Spirit is present in all creation. Each person experiences the wholeness of Spirit to the degree that they recognize and accept it within themselves. Tonight, in our final Wednesday Evening Service exploring the Ten Core Concepts of the Science of Mind and Spirit, we will explore how we can better recognize the Spirit within us by cultivating Cosmic Consciousness.  See you soon! -Russ

  Whether he knew it or not, Bon Jovi was affirming a powerful prayer in his iconic song, "Living On a Prayer." One of the lyrics goes like this: We've got to hold on to what we've got Cause it doesn't make a difference If we make it or not We've got each other and that's a lot For love - well give it a shot   Whooah, we're half way there Livin on a prayer Take my hand and we'll make it - I swear Livin on a prayer Tonight in our continuing series exploring the ten core concepts of the Science of Mind and Spirit, we will explore prayer--known as Spiritual Mind Treatment in the Science of Mind--and how we can use it to shift our mind from a focus on all that appears wrong, toward a focus on life that is rooted in compassion, love, and possibility.  See at the Center at 7pm! -Russ
