Inviting the Sacred: A Midweek Pause for Peace


Finding time to reconnect with peace and presence can feel elusive during a busy week. Yet, even a few moments of stillness can transform our inner world. That’s the heart of Wednesday Meditation: Inviting the Sacred, a weekly gathering designed to create space for reflection, connection, and renewal.

Every Wednesday evening, from 6:00 to 6:45 pm PST, participants come together on Zoom for a guided meditation led by Rev. Siota Belle. This facilitator-led session welcomes meditators of all experience levels, offering a gentle invitation to explore sacredness in the community.

A Practice of Oneness

At its core, Wednesday Meditation is about more than relaxation—it’s an opportunity to invite the sacred into our awareness. Through guided practices, participants are encouraged to experience a sense of Oneness, where separation dissolves and connection deepens. Whether you’re new to meditation or have been practicing for years, the session provides a supportive environment to explore what sacredness means to you.

Each week, Rev. Siota Belle introduces a different meditation practice, offering variety and insight. From breath awareness to visualization, these techniques help participants tap into their innate stillness and open to the sacred in everyday life.

A Community of Peace

There’s something special about meditating with others, even in a virtual setting. The shared energy of a group can amplify the experience, creating a sense of connection that transcends the screen. In this safe and welcoming space, attendees come together to meditate and support one another on their spiritual journey.

For many, this midweek pause becomes a cherished ritual—a time to step away from the noise of the day and realign with inner peace. It’s a reminder that no matter how busy life gets, there’s always a place to find calm and clarity.

You Determine Your Welfare - Special Wednesday "Pulpit-Swap" Service with Dr. Edward and Rev. Russ

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. Science of Mind teaches that the Creative Power of Life responds to the quality of our consciousness, and through spiritual practice we ...

"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

How To Be an Instrument for Peace - Wednesdays in July 2026

Peace rarely arrives as a single grand event. More my be built from small choices we make in how we listen, how we speak, and how we hold space for one another. This July, five voices from our community offer their own way into that practice, each bringing a different instrument to the symphony. We open the month with Discovering Your Peaceful Voice on July 1, with Dr. Edward Viljoen. Some obstacles to peaceful communication hide in plain sight, disguised as ordinary habits. This talk traces one path toward noticing them, and toward the voice that waits underneath. On July 8, Rev. Siota Belle leads us into Drumming To a Different Beat . There's a rhythm to peace that doesn't always match the pace the world moves at. This gathering explores what it means to find our own tempo, and to trust it even when it differs from the beat around us. July 15 brings Practicing Your Peace with Rev. Russ Legear. Peace as an idea can sound lovely. Peace as a daily practice asks something mo...
