SCHOOL SUNDAY
November 23, 2014 10:30am-11:30am
"The Yellow Brick Road"
Is there a Dorothy in each of us, wondering what life is really about and yearning for something more meaningful? What hidden gems might we discover in this wondrous, classic American fairytale? For those with eyes to see and ears to hear, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz has much to say. With luminous images, inspirational quotes, and sacred chant.
"If we walk far enough," says Dorothy, "we shall sometime come to someplace." L. Frank Baum

An Appointment Is Available.
SOUL PORTRAIT DRAWING & READING with Susan Van Sant
Sunday, November 16, 2014. Donation to SU $75 The reading takes approximately 45 minutes. One spot is now available for a reading. Act quickly. The spot will be filled on a first come first served basis. Contact Joan Johnson to state your intention and get specific details. Click here for Joan or call 612-378-3602.
The spot will be reserved with pre-payment.
 Susan uses the vibrational energies of a person's voice to trigger images which she then sketches on charcoal paper with artist pencils. Alternating between drawing and describing what she sees, she gathers additional information as the drawing progresses. The finished image captures information about one's Soul, the present path, occasionally past life information  which may be pertinent to challenges in this lifetime, and where one's journey is leading. People have reported they are able to unfold more information through meditation as they contemplate the images within their portrait.

Sunday, November 30, 2014
1:00pm-3:30pm $20 for all paid early registrations $25 for Non-SU members & at the door registrations Register: At SU or click here to contact the office.
As we begin, we are dedicated; we study and be the best person we can. With love and caring we open our hearts, live a life of hope and invoke right action as we do our best. Service is our outlet as we go deeper into privacy. In time as a true student of Life, we discover that while we did not seek to be a mystic, the path sought us.
Carol will be giving the message at the Sunday Service Nov. 30 as well. Her message is entitled "Advent Means To Come."

A Quote Submitted by Janet Bergman
What if the main reason for women, was to nurture, discover, and love?
And what if the main reason for men, was to nurture, discover, and love?
Yeah, those are the main reasons. Just different equipment.

Spirit United Is Creating a Community Directory
We are building a Community Directory with personal photos, so we can more easily get to know each other, organize activities together, and provide mutual support to one another. Before and after Sunday Services in November photographers will be available to take pictures.
You can provide your own photo via email to Jerry Buchmeier. ( Click here.)
There will be a section for couples and family photos.
We will not publish any information without your permission, and we won't make this info available for commercial use. The project will be low cost, and we will provide these directories to members and friends at minimal or no charge.
For questions about the process and what information to submit with your photo, contact Jerry by clicking here.
