Me and White Supremacy, A Six-Week Book Study, Wednesdays, August 5 through September 9, Noon to 1 pm

For six weeks, beginning August 5, those who identify as white or have white privilege, are invited to take part in a book study based on Layla Saad's book Me and White Supremacy. We will meet from noon to 1 pm.

Saad’s book challenges white people to unpack their unconscious biases and privileges based on skin color. If you have friends or colleagues who are interested in doing this work, they are welcome to join. Participants will support each other in discovering and shifting cultural training to stop unconsciously going along with a centuries-old system of white supremacy.

August 5 Welcome to the work

August 12 The Basics

August 19 Anti-Blackness, Racial Stereotypes, and Cultural Appropriation

August 26 Allyship

September 2 Power, Relationships, and Commitments

September 9 Now What? Continuing the Work

The book includes daily reading and journaling about elements of white supremacy so it is important to have access to the book.

Please register in advance for this free event.

"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

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

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

"Living On a Prayer" - Wednesday Evening Service with Rev. 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
