THIS SUNDAY
School Sunday
January 26, 2014
10:30am-11:30am
"The Soul's Journey to Love and Freedom
Phase One: The Disturbance, Waking Up"
with Rev. Ron Moor
If there are discernible steps on the spiritual path, then waking up is certainly one of the very first ones. How awake are you? What disturbed you enough to raise you from your slumber? It is our purpose to go through the steps of awakening together and perhaps to retrieve gifts from each phase. We begin our adventure with luminous images, sacred poetry and chants of spirit.
Rumi said 800 years ago, "Everything started with the cry of the craving soul, 'Nourish me for I am hungry. And hurry, for time is a sword.'"

Mantra: To know God, I must know myself;

~ Nahko Bear, Medicine for the People

guest speaker,
Adam Wolter
Adam will share with us the current activities of Uranus (the magician) and Neptune (the mystic) as they illuminate our lives with their gifts. He will share anecdotes from his personal journey as an only child, a brain injury survivor and astrologer to illustrate how these planets guide us through their gift of "the loner."

We no longer have temples of learning to help us answer the question "what is my purpose?" Today the answers come through our daily living , sometimes not so gently. We are constantly being honed into beauty, strength and clarity. Don't miss this!!!!! Click here to listen. Elizabeth is amazing.

Enhanced Prayer begins in 2014 
An effort to expand and enrich our prayer ministry is being launched....now.
All who come to Spirit United are invited to use this service. Our guidance comes from Healing Presence and Spirit United's Guiding Principles.
We now have a prayer box (prototype) for individuals to write their requests for prayer. Requests received will be honored for a month of weekly prayers. The box and the request forms have been placed on the table by the meditation room in order to make it easily accessible to everyone.
You may indicate your desire to have your request published in the e-newsletter. The newsletter reaches hundreds of persons who may join in this service in their homes. Another option is to request a member of Spirit Vine contact you if it is your desire to talk with someone.
This is a new, evolving service inspired by and in memory of Marilyn Sholl, Gordy Chatterton, and Kathleen O'Donovan. Their influences live on in our hearts.
