 Wednesday Night Live
December 17 at 7 pm
Doni Morrison
    Living the Presence  
 
To be present enhances every aspect of life.  There are two simple steps to awakening:  First, know from your experience the state of awakening; second, identify when and how you lose the connection.  It is one thing to experience the awakened state of Presence, but to remain awake and present in the context of daily life and relationships is much more elusive.  Doni offers a unique opportunity that leads to a permanent establishment of the presence.

  Visioning
  
Visioning1Please join Rev. Dr. Maureen this Thursday evening, December 18, at 6pm in visioning for the success and prosperity of the Center for Spiritual Living.
 
Your divine presence will add to the collective consciousness of the existing group in knowing the highest and best for our spiritual home.
 
What is Visioning?
Dr. Michael Beckwith describes visioning as "a process by which we train ourselves to be able to hear, feel, see, and catch God's plan for our life or for any particular project we're working on."
 
In Glenda Green's best selling book, Love without end, Jesus Speaks, she reports that Jesus describes the place where your true heart resides as "The Sacred Heart is a Holy Chamber."  This is the place where true prayer takes place.
 
Visioning is settling into silence and touching that heart center where your Source is ready to provide answers to questions, solutions to problems, and greater joy as your awareness of your divinity unfolds - and life expands to its highest and best expression.
 
Join the Visioning Committee and learn the difference between visioning and visualization to enhance your life and the life of your church.
