Dear Ones,

Thank God for adaptability! We are adjusting to the time change, catching up on any missed sleep, and regaining our clarity of mind and energy of body. Not everyone is affected by external conditions like weather, traffic, seasons, or time change, and we can all learn to become less influenced by outer circumstances. In establishing a sweet and powerful conscious connection with the Spirit within, we are less likely to be disturbed by these temporary events and live each day in greater peace.

In setting the intention to visit and revisit that place of Peace and Power within us, we consciously align with the Omnipresence, Omniscience, and Omnipotent of God, a wonderful discipline for all of us! Understanding that Spirit is everywhere present, all wise, and all powerful, we realize that this is our very nature as spiritual beings, as well.

Our gathering this Sunday at 1:00 P.M. at UCCVF, 45 Walker Road, Wayne, PA, will continue the monthly theme, “Divine Discipline and Delight.” As we continue moving closer to the spring season, I’ll be addressing, “Green and Growing,” a reminder of how we naturally reach toward the Light of Spirit to ascend in consciousness to our Authentic Identity. We also live stream our Celebration on YouTube which you may reach on our website: www.cslphilly.org and click on the orange Watch Online button.

You will find our licensed professional Practitioners on their dedicated page on our website and choose whomever you wish to schedule an appointment. They offer the gift of a brief “Three-Minute-Miracle” after Celebration on Sundays, and you may always place a request in the Prayer Chest. Consider arriving by 12:30 to join the Practitioner of the Day for Meditation prior to our gathering.

With great love and appreciation,

Dr. Maxine

Dear Ones,

Welcome to the season of fasting and praying! Last Friday, our Islamic friends began the observance of Ramadan, and the Christian community will enter into the Lenten Season tomorrow. There can be great benefit in turning inward,

enjoying spiritual contemplation and refraining from anything that does not assist us in our spiritual evolutionary process.

As we spoke about this past Sunday, a number of our people decided to use this special time to refrain from unpleasant thoughts and negative emotions, choosing instead to put their attention on life-affirming ideas and setting their intentions to keep the High Watch. Let’s forego criticism and complaints and indulge deeply in compassion and optimism, following Emmet Fox’s suggest to, “Forget about the problem, and think about God.” Remembering the Creative Power that is ours to use, we can make a positive difference in our own lives and in the larger world.

Join us this Sunday, March 9^th at 1:00 P.M. EST at 45 Walker Road, Wayne, PA, where we share facilities with the dear people at the United Church of Christ Valley Forge. Rev. Mike will be speaking on, “More Light Ahead,” and reminds everyone to “spring ahead” before Saturday night’s sleep, as Sunday begins Daylight Saving Time. Or you may watch YouTube on our website: www.cslphilly.org and clicking on the orange Watch Online button.

Whenever you may be facing a problem or simply wish a healthy uplift for your consciousness, do visit our Practitioner Page, and select any of them to meet with you in person or over the phone. Whomever you choose will work with you with care and in confidence.

With great love and appreciation,

Dr. Maxine
