We are doubly blessed to be receiving Bob and Danielle  Branciforte into our Practitioner Core. Be sure to attend (in person or virtually) as they officially join the “God Squad” during our Celebration on Sunday, August 17^th.  In the meantime, they may be reached for spiritual work by contacting them through their information listed on the Our Practitioners of our website.

At this time, they live in Tallahassee, Florida, not far from another of our out-of-area Practitioners, Beau Smith, and are a marvelous addition to our Team.  We are grateful now to have four local and four non-local Licensed Professional Practitioners enhancing our Beloved Community. As Bob and Danielle are enthusiastically and officially received and dedicated, the other six will participate in a Rededication Ceremony on August 17th.

Dear Ones,

“To err is human; to forgive, divine.”  None of us has escaped making what we consider to be “mistakes,” and, we likely have learned and grown through having experienced them. We probably have found, on more than one occasion, that we were seemingly lifted out of such an error without much effort of our own.  This is called, “Grace,” a movement of Spirit within us and a divine activity available to us all.

“For-giving” can be viewed as a wise exchange, as in giving something better for something lesser.  Each time we replace an erroneous idea with one of Truth, we have “forgiven,” whether ourselves or others.  It is a divine action to see through the appearance of wrongdoing to the eternal, spiritual reality.  Each step we take in consciousness toward seeing with the Eye of the Heart opens us to a more constant expression of Grace in our lives.

Join us this Sunday as Rev. Mike discusses, “Moving With Grace . . . Even Clumsily,” at UCCVF, 45 Walker Road, Wayne, PA. Celebration begins at 1:00 P.M. and you may come at 12:30 P.M. to join the Practitioner of the Day for a 15-minute Meditation before Celebration. If you are out of the area, log onto our website, www.cslphilly.org and go to the orange Watch Online button to be with us virtually.  Our Beloved Community includes all who participate with us, in person or online. Be with us and feel our unity.

Our Licensed Professional Practitioners are standing by to support us prayerfully whenever we may need our consciousness lifted. They are all listed on their own Practitioner page on our website, and any of them will welcome a call.

With great love and respect,

Dr. Maxine

Dear Ones,

Ernest Holmes began his presentations with these familiar words: “There is a Power for Good in the world, greater than you are, and you can use It!” This must have seemed a remarkable concept to those who were not yet aware of the Infinite Intelligence of the Universe and how It flowed through each and all of us.  Once we are lifted out of false beliefs in limitation or separation, our perception of possibility deepens, and our perspective of greater living expands.

What we have come to realize is that this Divine Creative Power can use US as instruments of Peace and Plenty in the world.  Once we understand the process of co-creation, we are not only able to enhance our own life experiences, but we are capable of transforming the world we know.

The first step is to accept and celebrate our Oneness with Divine Life and the necessity of each of us to do our part as an important individualized expression of It. Once we understand our True Identity, we understand how essential we are as instruments of the Divine. Let’s employ this Power for Good in our own lives and invite It to use us for ever-growing Good in the world.

Be with us this Sunday as we focus on “Making Friends with the Ocean of Life” in UCCVFs lovely sanctuary at 45 Walker Road, Wayne, PA. Celebration begins at 1:00 P.M. and you may come at 12:30 P.M. to join the Practitioner of the Day for a 15 minute Meditation before Celebration. If you are out of the area, log onto our website, www.cslphilly.org and go to the  orange Watch Now button to be with us virtually.  Our Beloved Community includes all who participate with us, either in person or online.

We are grateful for our Licensed Professional Practitioners and their willingness to support us prayerfully when we feel challenged with concerns, internal or external. They are all listed on their own page on our website, and any of them will welcome a call from you.

With great love and respect,

Dr. Maxine

Dear Ones,

As we approach the 249^th birthday of the United States of America, we may not be perceiving “a more perfect union,” as formulated in the Declaration of Independence. We do, however, have the ability and, I would say, responsibility, to set our sights on a higher vision for our 250^th anniversary. Until we begin relying more completely on the empowering Presence within and all around us for clarity, harmony, and wisdom, our human perception will struggle with challenging circumstances.

As soon as we deepen our faith in the Infinite Power of Universal Intelligence and relax into Its guidance, we become inspired with a new, dynamic perspective of peace, justice, compassion, and harmony. Truly, it is up to us to shift the consciousness of humanity by lifting our own to a greater Vision. In our Center, we share affirmative prayer, join hearts and minds together to envision a more perfect union, a deeper awareness of our Oneness with the Divine, and a keener experience of our Unity with all sentient beings.

You are invited to “come as you are” this Sunday to celebrate a new month, in which the theme is, “Surfing Life’s Waves.” We meet in UCCVFs lovely sanctuary at 45 Walker Road, Wayne, PA. Celebration begins at 1:00 P.M. and you may come at 12:30 P.M. to join the Practitioner of the Day for a 15 minute Meditation before Celebration. The topic is, “Faith in the Living Waters.” If you are out of the area, log onto our website, www.cslphilly.org and go to the orange Watch Now button to be with us virtually.

We love learning and utilizing the principles and practices of our wonderful Science of Mind teaching, especially grateful for affirmative prayer; still, we are wise to reach out to a Professional Practitioner when we need spiritual support. They are all listed on their own page on our website, and any of them will welcome a call from you.

With great love and respect,

Dr. Maxine
