Dear Ones,

The word, courage, is a favorite of mine, as it has its roots in the French, cour, or “of the heart. Truly, it takes real heart to be brave, to face our challenges with confidence in ourselves and in the Divine Presence which motivates and inspires us to keep moving ahead. As we begin a new month, our theme will be, “Step Our Fearlessly,” a wonderful intention for us as individuals and as a Beloved Community.

Whether we participate in Sunday Celebrations, social activities, classes, or other GPCSL events, simply stepping out with faith and confidence, guided and inspired by the Infinite Wisdom, and nurtured by Divine Love, we can find ourselves living more fully. Let’s take advantage of all the ways we may “live life out loud” by first connecting deeply with Spirit’s nurturing presence within us.

Be with us either in person or online this coming Sunday at 1:00 p.m.. EDT, as we begin the month with, “First, We Go Deep,” supporting each other in living courageously and freely, as we continue along our spiritual evolutionary paths. We meet at UCCVF, 45 Walker Road, Wayne, Pennsylvania, or you may join online by going to our website: www.cslphilly.org and click on the Watch Now or simply click here.  However you connect with us, you are a significant part of our spiritual family, and you matter to us.

With great love and respect,

Dr. Maxine

Dear Ones,

How wonderful it feels to be welcoming the first day of autumn! The cooler days, changing flora, increased energy, and opportunities for newness are already bringing about a sense of great joy and happy anticipation. It is this precious and powerful moment of NOW that is filled with infinite possibilities for ourselves, our loved ones, our Beloved Community, and the whole world.

As we willingly enter in with delight to this new season with open hearts and minds, we recall that all the Power that ever was or will be is here . . . NOW! It dwells within us all, ready and willing to manifest great and growing good in our lives, personally and collectively, as we identify with our precious and powerful Source and make clear, conscious choices.

Join us next Sunday at 1:00 P.M. EDT, as Rev. Mike focuses on, “The Best of Times is Now!” in person at UCCVF, 45 Walker Road, Wayne, Pennsylvania, or you may join online by going to our website: www.cslphilly.org  Whether attending in person or virtually, you are all an important part of our spiritual family.

 With great love and respect,

Dr. Maxine

Dear Ones,

An important part of Living Fully, as we are learning to do more successfully this month, is to honor change and realize how sacred and essential it truly is for health and wellbeing. Rather than resisting or avoiding necessary shifts in our attitudes, experiences, and circumstances, we are wise to embrace and anticipate them with confidence and gratitude. Since life moves forward, never backward, it just makes sense for us to learn to live in its flow, curious and happily anticipating each next step.

Adventures await us, as we welcome fresh opportunities to allow our Divine Authenticity to emerge and express through each of us and to celebrate the Nurturing and Wise Presence that leads us gracefully through each portal into a fuller, wider, and deeper experience of real aliveness.

Be with us next Sunday at 1:00 P.M. EDT, as we focus on, “The Holiness of Change,” either in person at UCCVF, 45 Walker Road, Wayne, Pennsylvania, or you may join online by going to our website: www.cslphilly.org.  Whether attending in person or virtually, you are all an important part of our spiritual family and very much appreciated.

Our Licensed Practitioners, affectionately known as “The God Squad,” provide spiritual support for our Center, and for individuals seeking an uplift of consciousness. They are all listed on their  webpage and offer the gift of a “Three-Minute-Miracle” session after Sunday Celebration.  Additionally, you may place a request into our Prayer Chest. They are available for one-on-one Practitioner sessions.

With great love and respect,

Dr. Maxine

Dear Ones,

So often, we seek answers to questions, solutions to problems, and our very good itself from external sources, rather than being wise enough to “inquire within” to the Infinite Wisdom always available to us and far greater and more reliable than anything or anyone outside of us.  Certainly, we have gathered loving friends and wise teachers who can listen and share their experience and opinions, but this cannot compare to the Source of Wisdom itself, which abides always at the very center of our being.

Such internal investigation brings peace, clarity, and confidence, all of which lead to a day filled with excellent choices, healthy activity, success in our endeavors, and serenity at the end of the day.  The more we call upon this divine resource, the more our faith deepens, and it becomes a natural choice to go first to the Spirit within, trusting and following Its guidance. It takes practice to withdraw willingly from world opinion and “what they say” and opening the ear of our heart to hear the sweet song of Spirit, lovingly showing us the way.

We continue September’s theme, “Learn to Live Fully,” and next Sunday’s topic is, “The Mentor Within.”  Be with us at UCCVF, 45 Walker Road, Wayne, Pennsylvania, at 1:00 P.M. EDT, or you may join online by going to our website: www.cslphilly.org.   Whether you are able to attend in person or from a computer or phone in your home or car, you are a very important part of our beloved community, and we love you.

Are you ready to go deeper into the Unity of All Life? Have you experienced those flashes of awareness, in which you truly feel your oneness with the Divine and all beings? We encourage you to join Dr. Maxine’s seven-week Thursday night class, “The Mystical Path,” starting this week, September 10^th, on Zoom, using Wayne Teasdale’s “The Mystic Heart,” as well as the Student Guide. The reading, exercises, and discussion are designed to open us to deeper understanding and greater aliveness.  Please register promptly in order to receive the workbook and instructions.

Dear Ones,

As a delightful nonagenarian minister friend of mine replied years ago, when I lovingly asked her why she continued taking all the classes offered at our Center, “I just want to keep evolutin’ right along!” And evolutin’ she did, never missing a beat, continuing to discover new, wonderful life experiences, and making a difference for all of us.  It is the divine intention for us that we continue to live life fully, setting clear intentions, making new discoveries, adding inspiration to others, and experiencing great joy on the adventure.

I encourage you to join me in determining to feel the aliveness of Spirit in all we choose to do, to bring the best of ourselves to every vision and each project, and to take all the next steps toward greater and greater fulfillment of this amazing life experience. Set the intentions, trust the generosity of spirit and the reliability of the Law to bring them about with Grace and Ease.

We complete our monthly theme of “Joyful Journey or Taxing Trip” with the very important question, “What’s Next?” Now that we have learned how to return to the “Main Road” (Spirit, Source, the Divine Presence), we are ready to set clearer, wiser intentions for continuing Life’s adventure.  Join us this Sunday, at UCCVF, 45 Walker Road, Wayne, Pennsylvania, at 1:00 P.M. EDT, or you may join online by going to our website: www.cslphilly.org  Our Community is made up of those near and far, and all are an important part of our extended family.
