Let the Manifestivities Begin
— Rev. Barbara Samuel
“No man can demonstrate peace and cling to unhappiness.”
— Ernest Holmes
What you have already brought into your life — by your choosing of it — is as a result of doing what you have always done. Are you ready to choose something different?
Join Rev. Barb and the rest of the Sunday Six on December 5th, 2021 at 10:30am on Facebook Live.
Tune in early at 10:20am to hear the music of New Thought musician, Jesse Powers.

The SOM theme for December is “Journey of Becoming”. The journey comes to an end, but we know that is simply the beginning of another cycle and year. At each solstice is a stillness, a time to sit and be with ourselves right where we are, listening to the small voice as it speaks, giving ourselves over to the mystery.
This Week’s Science of Mind Theme
Surrender is Action
Surrender is a conscious choice to move from control into relaxing into the Order of the Divine. We let go of all sense of separation and enter into a state of conscious union.
When we surrender to the Presence and Power of Divine Love within, anything is possible. When we listen for and surrender to Inner Guidance, we receive exactly what we need. Following it with faith moves us to powerful and healing action.
When we become still and listen long enough, we will hear the voice of the heart, spirit and soul. That inner guidance can be trusted!

Visioning Session #2
Right after our Special Meeting, we will meet on Zoom at 2pm on December 5th for our Visioning Session #2. This is an opportunity to envision Spirit’s highest vision for our community.
Visioning is a process developed by Michael Beckwith to create a realization of our greater yet to be. It’s not visualization; it’s a process to assist us in getting in touch with what’s alive at the higher levels of our spiritual potential. All are welcome!
