Compassion: Coming Home to Spirit.



Wednesday, August 12 • 7 PM
With Rev. Siota Belle

What can happen when we meet life with a little more compassion?

Maybe we pause and listen before jumping to conclusions. We stop needing to be right all the time. We let someone express themselves without trying to fix them. And hopefully, we extend that same grace to ourselves.

It’s easy to be compassionate with people we agree with. But when we’re pushed: with the family member who sees the world completely differently, the colleague who drives us up the wall, or the parts of ourselves we’d rather ignore. That’s when compassion stops being a nice feeling and becomes an active practice.

Join Rev. Siota Belle this Wednesday for Compassion: Coming Home to Spirit. We’ll take an honest look at what living with more compassion actually looks like in practice, and what it might open up in your own life.

"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

"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

"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
