 David Drum will facilitate a drum circle geared toward beginning drummers. The program will require no musical experience. If you have a heartbeat, you have everything you need for this activity. Basic drum circle skills will be shared through experiential activities.   

Instruments from a variety of cultures will be provided. Participants may also bring their favorite percussion instruments. David has successfully utilized these activities with many groups of adults and children that have never played. In addition to the group making music together, David will share information on drum circle etiquette, hand safety, local opportunities to drum, decision making in purchasing drums, and resources for purchasing equipment. If you desire a chance to experience a drum circle that is fun and free of performance pressures, come drum with us.

"All things appear and disappear because of the concurrence of causes and conditions. Nothing ever exists entirely alone; everything is in relation to everything else." - Buddha
Dear Spiritual Family,

We continue into this year of change and transformation with the opportunity of understanding that we are building a collective - a community of like-minded people, a group called:  The Spiritual Light Center of Charlotte".

As I ponder our future, I am reminded of the core mission of who we are: a group of like-minded (or open-minded) souls who affirm a NEW type of community; a community that is combining the Truth that is contained in a wide body of religious and spiritual beliefs. Ours is a path of taking responsibility for our relationship to God/Creator/Source/Universe. Whatever name you choose to call it, its about the ENERGY that resides in each of us - as a collective. 

The former Age of needing a guru, savior or priest is falling away.  We are in a time of transition, where community and co-working are not only keynotes, but spiritual responsibilities. For those of us who want to be on the forefront of change and transformation, it is vitally important we let go of the old traditional way of thinking and think in terms of "us" and "how may I serve the collective?"

And so, I would like to share with you this concept, which I found in the article below, based on the wisdom of Buddhism;


"When we honor our community, maintain it, treat it like the precious treasure that it is, it returns our investment a thousandfold."

The following article speaks to being a part of community.  I urge you to not only read it - but to also understand that we do not walk our path alone - nor are we meant to. 

"Going Home" by angel Kyodo williams

Be Blessed Along Your Way!
Reverend Rebecca



I also would like to share with you an article that is published in the February issue of Natural Awakenings:

We will begin our study this year by covering the Seven Universal Laws, as given in the Kybalion; by which everything in the Universe is governed. 

The Universe exists in perfect harmony by virtue of these Laws. Ancient mystical, esoteric and secret teachings dating back over 5,000 years from Ancient Egypt to Ancient Greece and to the Vedic tradition of Ancient India, all have as their common thread  in these seven Spiritual Laws of the Universe.
 
We will cover one law each week.  Reference Materials will be taken from the book: The Kybalion, available on Amazon or free public domain PDF
