Dear Ones,

As we continue this month’s theme, “Conscious, Caring Choices,” we remember that it is our joyous responsibility to plant wholesome seeds of thought and feeling into the nurturing presence of Infinite Mind, doing our best to be mindful of choosing to focus on the highest and best possibilities and anticipate their wonderful fruition.  We are always at choice with regard to the direction of our attention, and we train our minds not to dwell on anything less than that which is for the greatest good for all, as well as for ourselves. We know that our intention is “father” to its fulfillment, and so we choose wisely and lovingly.

This Sunday, Father’s Day, I’ll be speaking on, “Passionate, Compassionate Intention,” celebrating our co-creative ability to establish healthy, joyous, loving objectives in Mind and to delight in their fulfillment in our lives and in the world.  You are invited to be with us in person at UCCVF, 45 Walker Road, Wayne, PA this Sunday at 1:00 p.m. ET if you are in the area; otherwise, join our Celebration online by going to www.cslphilly.org and click on the orange Watch Online button.  Our Spiritual Community includes both those physically present and everyone who joins us online.

Our Licensed Practitioners are the healing arm of our Center, keeping the High Watch for our Beloved Community.  They are also available for appointments, either in person, on the phone, or online, where you will find a compassionate heart and receive spiritual mind treatment.  They are all listed on their dedicated page on our website. To get know them better, you may ask one of them for a brief “Three-Minute-Miracle” session after Sunday Celebration.  Additionally, a request placed into our Prayer Chest not only allows our Healing Ministry to treat for you, but they will also send you a personalized affirmation when you provide your email address.

With great love and respect,

Dr. Maxine

Dear Ones,

My heart is happy today, as I fly to Florida to experience a few special days with my daughter and granddaughter and their husbands. I made a clear decision long ago to take these short trips about four times a year, as we all know the importance of maintaining family ties. Mindful nurturing of precious relationships is one of the best “Conscious, Caring Choices” we can make, and that happens to be our theme for the month of June!

Whatever choices you have made over your life, it is wise not to judge them to be “good” or “bad” but to find the gifts in them and to discover how they may have helped to bring you to the point of understanding where you now are. We choose and choose again, exercising the sovereignty we truly have over our lives. Continuing to deepen our faith in a Loving Power and Presence within and all around us, and journeying forward on our spiritual path, we find the Grace to make wiser and more compassionate choices every day.

Rev. Mike will ask the question this Sunday, “Ever a Wrong Choice?” so be with us in person at UCCVF, 45 Walker Road, Wayne, PA this at 1:00 P.M. ET if you are in the area; otherwise, join our Celebration online by going to www.cslphilly.org. Our Spiritual Community reaches far beyond our borders, and you are invited to be a part of it!

As we have concluded a “five-star” month of May, with beautiful new members and an amazing concert by Ray Adkins and his band, we are entering June with great joy and a healthy anticipation for ever-increasing newness and divine activity in our Beloved Community.  Summertime always tends to lift the consciousness and bring a sense of lightness to each day, whether we are traveling or simply “taking a vacation” from stress.

Many wonderful events occur this month: graduations, weddings, Juneteenth, Father’s Day, trips to the shore, and uplifting classes.  Our theme for June is, “Conscious, Caring Choices,” a worthy goal for us all. It is as we remain mindful that our decisions bring healthy, successful results. We are at choice every moment of the day, and, as we train our minds to stay conscious and to be compassionate with ourselves and others, we are able to attain this intention. Imagine a world in which everyone is determined to stay present and bring their Best Selves to every instant.

Be with us at UCCVF, 45 Walker Road, Wayne, PA this Sunday at 1:00 P.M.  if you are in the area; otherwise, do join our Celebration online  by going to www.cslphilly.org .My topic will be, “Use Your Words!” and will focus on the power of our intention we set by choosing inspiring, healthy, uplifting words, thoughts, and concepts.  Our Spiritual Community reaches far beyond our borders, and you are invited to be a part of it!

We enjoyed such a special day on Sunday, as four beautiful new members joined our Beloved Community: Albert Chen, Margie Donovan, Tony Lewis and Rich Marion. As we continue to sow sweet and powerful seeds of growth, Truth Seekers find and bless us with their presence. Expanding our circle delights us, and we so appreciate the gifts given and received, as faith deepens and lives are lived more fully.

Continuing with May’s theme, “From Showers to Flowers,” we celebrate the deepening and ascension of consciousness that becomes possible when we choose to view every event as a springboard to the divine gifts of greater understanding and a more satisfying and successful life. Using Principle to enhance our families, friends, and spiritual community, we find the next
logical step is to set the larger intention of enriching the global community.

This Sunday’s message will be, “Cultivating the Garden of Humanity,”
setting the intention to deepen our confidence in Spirit’s Power and the
Law’s reliability, and inviting a greater vision of the world to unfold. We

The last two weeks of May bring us much to be enthusiastic about, as well as grateful and joy-filled!  Beautiful new members join us this Sunday and we have an awesome concert the following Saturday. Our Beloved Community understands that “enthusiasm” is derived from the Greek, “en Theos,” or IN GOD!  Truly, whenever we feel Spirit’s fullness, we are filled with joy and aliveness, ready and willing to experience and share the delight of Life with others.

In truth, we live and dwell and have our very being in Spirit, and becoming consciously aware of Its Presence lifts us out of any doubt, worry, or concern and changes the very energy within and around us.  Giving ourselves completely to this divine experience not only makes a difference in our own lives but also touches and blessings everyone we encounter. Let’s take a deep dive into the Sacred and bring it out into the world.

We happily return to our in-person Celebrations this Sunday, May 24th, at UCCVF at 1:00 P.M. What a special day it will be, as we receive new members, two of whom are flying out from the West Coast to join our spiritual community. Please attend in person to honor and embrace these wonderful folks, as they enhance our Beloved Community with their presence.  If you are not in the area, you may join our Celebration online  by going to www.cslphilly.org . My topic this Sunday will be, “Planting, Tending, Growing.” Do join us for a no-host lunch at Black Powder Tavern.
