πŸŒŸπŸ™ Unleash the Power of Gratitude! πŸ™πŸŒŸwith Dr. Edward Viljoen


Hey spiritual seekers! Today, at our 7 pm Wednesday Evening Service, I'll be bursting with excitement to share a seemingly magical key that can unlock profound transformation in your life - Gratitude! πŸŒˆπŸ’«

In the chaotic whirlwind of our daily lives, it's easy to get lost in the hustle and bustle, overlooking the incredible blessings that surround us. But friends here's the secret sauce - gratitude isn't just a warm fuzzy feeling; it's a potent spiritual practice that can shift your entire existence! 🌟✨

When you embrace gratitude, you become increasingly aware of compassion, joy, and connection. Each day, take a moment to count your blessings, whether big or small - a breathtaking sunrise, a heartwarming smile, a comforting hug, or even a hot cup of coffee. πŸŒ…πŸ˜Š Embrace the beauty of life's tapestry, and watch as the Universe showers you with even more blessings to be grateful for! πŸŽπŸ’•

I taught an inmate in a state prison the practice of daily gratitude.  He had no breathtaking view, soft fuzzy blanket, or comforting hug to refer to.  He told me how in his practice he had to look deeply into everything around him and find something to be grateful for: the shapes on the wall, the ability of his ears to tune into sounds way beyond his cell, and other seemingly ordinary miracles of life.  

Through the practice her found, like we can, that gratitude opens your heart, ignites compassion, and connects you to the cosmic dance of creation. 🌌🌠 It empowers you to navigate through challenges with grace and find hidden opportunities in every obstacle. By acknowledging the gifts you have, you attract a symphony of positivity and inspire others to do the same! πŸŽΆπŸ€—

So, my beloved souls, join me on Wednesday at 7 pm, and let's embark on this incredible journey of gratitude together! Let's celebrate the wonders of existence and watch as our lives transform into a magnificent, love-filled adventure! Are you ready? πŸš€πŸ’–

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
