Your Sense of Belonging, Support and Personal Growth on Wednesdays.

A spiritual community refers to a group of individuals who share common spiritual beliefs, values, and practices. This community can take many forms, including religious congregations, meditation groups, or other gatherings centered around a shared spiritual practice. Our Wednesday Evening Service is a form of spiritual community where we gather to eat, meditate, and be inspired. In an informal setting, on couches and garden chairs, inside our art-decorated social hall, we form bonds of friendship and learning.

The importance of spiritual community lies in its ability to provide individuals with a sense of connection, belonging, and support. Human beings are social creatures, and we thrive when we have strong connections with others. By participating in a spiritual community, individuals are able to form relationships with like-minded individuals who share their beliefs and values. This can help to alleviate feelings of isolation and loneliness and provide a sense of purpose and meaning in life.

Through group meditation, prayer, and other practices, we can deepen our understanding of what it means to lead a spirit-led life which can lead to a sense of inner peace and calm.

If you are seeking a sense of connection, belonging, support, personal growth, and inspiration, Wednesdays at the Center at 7 pm in-person may be what you’re looking for.

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
