Spirit United 2013 Theme:
Living the New Paradigm
June: Where We Live
|
This Sunday ~ June 23, 2013 ~10:30-11:30am
"School Sunday"
By Rev. Ron Moor
"There is almost a sensual longing for communion with others who have a large vision. The immense fulfillment of the friendship between those engaged in furthering the evolution of consciousness has a quality impossible to describe." ~Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
Opening to the presence of Soul, seeing the world through the eyes of Soul, creating our homes and our communities reflective of Soul, are crucial elements in the unleashing of imagination required in the birthing and the living of the new paradigm.
Join us on June 23 as we continue our journey into the next paradigm that is emerging all around us and within us. With luminous images and sacred chant. Rev. Ron Moor
.
Living the New Paradigm
Where we Live: Home and Community.
|
Next Sunday ~ June 30, 2013 ~ 10:30-11:30am
Guest Speaker: Rev. Carolyn Cahill
"Everything's Calling Us
Deeper Home"
As pioneers of the emerging new paradigm, we claim responsibility for creating ever-more caring relationships with our selves, our communities (from intimate to global) and our earth. Challenges are inevitable, and part of our service--and a source of strength and joy--can come through recognizing and remembering that such challenges are simply calling us deeper home...that is, calling us to remember that everything is a part of one Universal Consciousness.
As a former Lead Minister of Spirit United, Carolyn looks forward to being back and sharing some ideas for navigating our multi-dimensionality and the oft-chaotic path of paradigm-building, as well as sharing the joy of knowing we are all One.

Workshop: With Rev. Carolyn Cahill
The Levels of Consciousness
and the Wisdom of the Basic Self:
An Introduction Saturday, June 29, 2013, 10:00am-5:00pm and Sunday, June 30, 1:00pm-5:00pm
The World Soul, the Anima Mundi, has a new evolutionary call. The very fabric of consciousness is changing. There is great opportunity for rapid advancement, which also means that there is great opportunity for crisis. We see it in the world around us, which means it is inevitable that it exists with us, to some degree or another.
We are both human and divine. We are multi-dimensional beings. Now is the time to understand more deeply our inner make-up so as to appropriately and responsibly utilize each level of consciousness. Befriending and working effectively with the Basic Self (one's instinctual nature, and so much more) and understanding its relationship to our Conscious Self, Higher Self, and the Anima Mundi (World Soul) of which it is a part, is key to restoring harmony and balance, experiencing a renewed sense of well-being and authentic power, and the integration and synthesis of the Soul. Carolyn's introduction to this work will include practices to release old memories and scars that block the full expression of the authentic inner self.
Investment: $75. Registration deadline: Sunday, June 23.
Bio: Carolyn Cahill was ordained through Sancta Sophia Seminary/Light of Christ Community Church, and served as Spirit United's Lead Minister from 2006-2009. After spending 2 years as a Work/Scholar in Leadership Studies at Esalen Institute in Big Sur, CA, Carolyn moved to Asheville, NC to serve as the Director of Outreach for the School for Esoteric Studies. She is known as a dynamic and heartfelt leader and a thought-provoking communicator and teacher.

Spirit United Matters
Feed My Starving Children Update
May 31, 2013, ended our year-long relationship with Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) as our tithing partner. Each month we sent them a percentage of our monthly offerings. We donated $2,800 for the year which was enough to feed 35 children for an entire year!
On Saturday, June 1st many Spirit United members and friends packaged meals at FMSC. We had fun and helped a most worthy organization fulfill their commitment to help those in need of a nutritious meal.
