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

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.

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
