December Affirmation

The One, Universal, Circle of Life

created us all. I see Spirit

in everyone I meet. 

Wherever I go, I belong

My heart is heavy with news that our dear friend and member Robert Coates has made his transition. Robert was an active part of our Center for many years. I am told he had no family, but as his minister I have some bit of authority, and am in the process of securing his ashes and planning a celebration of life for after the new year. I know he is at peace now. If you would like to contribute to his memorial fund, please click the link below.

Blessings, Linda

Join us for an evening of music, sacred reading and meditation. Come a bit early to celebrate with a potluck of sparkling Cider, desserts, cookies, nuts, candies and nibbles.

 "Into We See"

Special Music will be provided by

Rev Lynda Lundry-Starr!

There is one power, made of, and making everything. All experiences are God in expression, even the ones you don’t really think about, yes they are God too.

My voice and thought ring through with magical intention of the God I am in manifestation of all the highest good.

I move from a place of just “fitting in” to a place of true belonging. Where everybody knows your name, and they’re always glad you came, we wanna go where everybody knows your name. And knowing this experience in more places than expected. We have moved into a belonging society. We have started by embracing all walks of life and embodying belonging for all.



And by knowing this, this experience has already unfolded. We already belong, because God can’t help but to love God. It feels and has felt sooo good.

My hair stands on end, zinging with gratitude. So grateful for the belongings I have experienced. So grateful for this enriched life.

I release this prayer, and know that fitting in has fallen away, and belonging has begun. I tingle with delightful pleasure to play with humanity because I belong.

And so it is

Let it begin with me
