Healing Service: Warm Hearts and Healing Hands 
with  
Rev. Ron Moor, Healers,
and musicians James Schattauer and Bettie Seitzer

     

On this Labor Day Sunday rest from your labors and join us for a service of healing. Together we will build the energy, creating a sanctuary of healing.

You can choose to sit in the circle of healing and receive hands on energy from one of our healers offering their warm heart and healing hands, walk the labyrinth, sit in quiet meditation, listen to beautiful harp music, or choose all of the options for healing. 
        LAST SUNDAY SERVICE
SCHOOL SUNDAY 
August 24, 2014  
 
"The Veil Lifting, Passionate Seeing: Become the Archetype- The Visionary"
with Rev. Ron Moor 

Ron proposed to us to realize how we have been conditioned and how once we can see past old paradigms, we can begin to perceive with fresh eyes. We can become a seer, a visionary who deepens into love who can see from the future into the now.  Rumi said, "O amazing Love! Let me sing of your wonders. With these words let me open a door into light."

"Get Ready! Spirit Sunday is Coming September 21"  
 
            with Rev. Ron Moor 
      

September is a month full of opportunities for our community. With Spirit Sunday, our jump start to the fall season, happening on September 21 and special guest speaker James Ulness scheduled on the 28th, we are moving School Sunday to September 7.  And don't forget our Fall Equinox drum and ceremony on Friday evening the 19th.

 

Our sub-theme for September is Wondering in the Vastness: Home is Everywhere.  In this phase of our journey toward love and freedom, we are well into our process.  Having opened more to love and begun to "see" more clearly, we are feeling more at home in the universe and experiencing more of the wonders of creation.  Abundance takes on new meaning, and new understanding.  Together we will explore wonder and abundance as we prepare for our Sunday of Spirit.  This presentation is filled with inspirational quotes, luminous images and sacred chant.

A Showing of the film, "Kundalini," 
followed by a discussion.
Hosted by
Rosemary Golias 

Thursday, September 4, 2014 
7:00pm-9:00pm   
$5 donation suggested
Register:  Contact Rosemary by clicking here or
                 call 651-452-3161  

 

Rosemary Golias will show a film, "Kundalini."  Kundalini is an evolutionary force beyond science and beyond religion. Kundalini is the force within us.  It is our birthright and is the source of the fulfillment of our life desires.

The evening includes discussion of the film, examples of Kundalini's presence, and life practices and opportunities to learn more, including information of upcoming Kundalini seminars, that supports Kundalini expression.

Information about the seminars and events with Chrism, a Kundalini teacher, will be shared.  He will be in the Twin Cities and Minnesota September 21 - September 24, 2014.  There are flyers in the back of SU waiting for you.
Past Life Healing & The Art of Spiritual Counseling

 

with Rev. Ron Moor

 

Starts Tues, Sept. 9-Dec. 2, 2014

(11 weeks; no class Oct. 14 & 21)
7:00pm-9:00pm
 

Fee: $30/class for $330 total;

Special: $300 if paid in full at first class

 

Register and for information contact Ron.  

Click here or call 952-929-1559  

 

We all have "stuff" that inhibits our freedom to be, to make healthy choices. Past Life Healing is a proven highly effective way to access the source of such inhibiting patterns and release them, with awareness, so we can learn, grow, and move on toward our higher destiny. Past Life Healing combines hands-on energy work with spiritual guidance in an effective partnership of caring that leads to awareness, release, integration and healing.

 

Each student will be a "client", exploring some of their own early and past life experiences. Each student will be a healing facilitator, learning to guide another through their process. This is an advanced class, with at least one prior class with Ron required, or prior training in other energy healing modalities.

 

Spirit United Movie Night

Friday, Sept 12, 2014  

7:00pm

 

"Art and Sound of the Pineal Tones" 

Hosted by Patti Gmeiner and  

Anita Collodoro

  

Suggested Donation: $5

Register: Contact Patti Gmeiner by clicking here  

                or call Anita Collodoro at 952-221-6372   

 

The video is a 1-hour collection of 14 videos featuring the 24 pieces of art in the Pineal Tones series of Dr. Todd Ovakaitys, combined with the toning pairs as recorded at the Lemurian Reunion 12/21/12.  Each pairing of the tones and art are communication portals and activations for accessing and receiving energy in a most unique manner. The songs of light, sound and color that remind us of our "home" are deeply transforming personally, while also uplifting the planetary vibrational field as a whole.

 

Members of the choir & others who have experienced Dr. Todd's workshops will be present for a discussion, so please join us for this very experiential night.

 

FYI-A Workshop is coming this fall.  Immersion in the DNA Field Workshops w/Dr. Todd will be coming to Bloomington, MN. Sat, Oct 12 & Sun, Oct 13, 2014.  More information to come.

QUOTES ABOUT HEALING

In Silence there is eloquence.

Stop weaving and see how the pattern improves.
~Rumi

Forgiving does not erase the bitter past. A healed memory is not a deleted memory. Instead, forgiving what we cannot forget creates a new way to remember. We change the memory of our past into a hope for our future.
-- Lewis B. Smedes

 

Healing is a matter of time,  

but it is sometimes also a matter of opportunity.
-- Hippocrates

 

Healing may not be so much about getting better,  

as about letting go of everything that isn't you  

- all of the expectations, all of the beliefs  

- and becoming who you are.
-- Rachel Naomi Remen

 

"Healing," Papa would tell me, "is not a science, but the intuitive art of wooing nature."
-- W.H. Auden

 

Healing takes courage, and we all have courage, even if we have to dig a little to find it.
-- Tori Amos

 

Healing yourself is connected with healing others.
-- Yoko Ono

 

Humor is healing.
-- Brad Garrett

 

I think music in itself is healing. It's an explosive expression of humanity. It's something we are all touched by. No matter what culture we're from, everyone loves music.
-- Billy Joel

 

Live your life from your heart. Share from your heart. And your story will touch and heal people's souls.
-- Melody Beattie

 

Love one another and help others to rise to the higher levels, simply by pouring out love.  

Love is infectious and the greatest healing energy.
-- Sai Baba

 

Our sorrows and wounds are healed only when we touch them with compassion.
-- Buddha

 

The art of healing comes from nature,  

not from the physician. Therefore the physician must start from nature, with an open mind.
-- Philipus Aureolus Paracelsus

 

The practice of forgiveness is our most important contribution to the healing of the world.
-- Marianne Williamson

 

The soul is healed by being with children.
-- Fyodor Dostoyevsky

 

The words of kindness are more healing  

to a drooping heart than balm or honey.
-- Sarah Fielding

 

There is something beautiful about all scars of whatever nature. A scar means the hurt is over, the wound is closed and healed, done with.
-- Harry Crews

 

To heal from the inside out is the key.
-- Wynonna Judd

 

We need to give each other the space to grow, to be ourselves, to exercise our diversity. We need to give each other space so that we may both give and receive such beautiful things as ideas, openness, dignity, joy, healing, and inclusion.
-- Max de Pree
