Dec. 16, 2025: From the Pen of Dr. Maxine

Dear Ones,

The One Divine Light finds Its expression in and through each of us, so it is important to remember how essential we are to the dissemination of Love and Wisdom to the world. It is as we become aware of Its steadfast glow within our own hearts that we become able and willing to share this Light with others. It is in the sharing that our consciousness deepens and expands, and we experience great joy and satisfaction in being the instruments of God’s Presence.

We have finally arrived at the time for our very special Annual Winter Solstice, coming up this Saturday at UCCVF. This sweet and powerful interfaith event begins at 6:30 P.M. with music and presenters from many faith traditions and reception following. This year’s theme, “From the Darkness of Division to the Light of Love,” and it seems to perfect time to celebrate Unity in Diversity and shed a little light on everyone. Bring your family and friends and come early to find your seats.

Continuing this month’s theme, “Bring in the Light,” this Sunday will focus on, “Sharing the Illuminated Presence.” Enjoy a short meditation with our Practitioner of the Day at 12:30, then gather in the Sanctuary for our 1:00 P.M. ET Celebration. We’ll enjoy holiday refreshments together after service, including your minister’s Heavenly Swedish Tea Ring. If you are out of the area, please join us online by logging on to our website, www.cslphilly.org and go to the orange Watch Online button to be with us virtually.

Our Licensed Professional Practitioners are always to lift us in prayer and assist in in deepening our faith.  Click here to see their dedicated page on our website and contact any of them for a personal appointment. They are also here for “3-Minute Miracles” for brief meetings on Sundays after service, and the Prayer Chest receives your requests for spiritual mind treatment by the “God Squad.”

With great love and respect,

Dr. Maxine
