NEXT SUNDAY
Mystery School Sunday
Going Deeper
March 22, 2015
10:30am-11:30am
Explore More Deeply the Spiritual Practice of Wearing Skin with Rev. Ron Moor
What does the emerging "new story" that Charles Eisenstein calls "interbeing" mean for our own personal relationship with our physical body, our self, each other, our planet and our spirituality? How is it different from the "old story"? How do we more fully live this new story and let go of the old one of separation? Join us for this month's Mystery School Sunday as we explore more deeply The Spiritual Practice of Wearing Skin. Ron will share luminous images, inspirational quotes and sacred chant.
Yet here we sit, with our souls tucked away in this marvelous luggage, mostly insensible to the ways in which every spiritual practice begins with the body.
~ Barbara Brown Taylor

 LAST SUNDAY
March 8, 2015
"Where My Soul Lives"
with Rev. Ron Moor
and guest musician
Ray Makeever

Feel your body. Feel the heaviness rooting you to the earth. What if we were deeply rooted in every moment of every day?
Transformation requires deepening our "rootedness", being within our body. When we open ALL of what we are, The Universe talks to us and opens doors we can walk through. To hear more, click here.

Resilient Grieving - Reasonable Hope Class with Ted Bowman Sunday, March 29, 2015 12:30pm - 3:00pm $15
Metaphorical shipwreck may occur with the loss of a relationship, violence to one's property, collapse of a career venture, physical illness or injury, defeat of a cause, a fateful choice that irrevocably reorders one's life, betrayal by a community or government, or the discovery that an intellectual construct is inadequate. (Parks)
However named, grieving such losses may be essential for a fuller grief experience AND beginning to dream and hope again. In this interactive session, participants will be presented with distinctions of altered assumptions and expectations. Further, ways of practicing resilient grieving and reasonable hope will be addressed.
Bio: Ted Bowman is a grief and family educator. He is also an adjunct professor in the School of Social Work at the University of Saint Thomas. He is the author of numerous chapters, articles and books, many of which address themes of grief and hope.
Ted will be guest speaker at the Sunday Service on March 29. The title is Following Metaphors: Spiritual and Everyday Meanings.
