Dec. 23, 2025: From the Pen of Dr. Maxine

Dear Ones,

This “most wonderful time of the year” is cause for celebration for us all. Hanukkah ended Sunday night, Christmas Eve is tomorrow night, Kwanzaa begins on Friday, and the New Year will be celebrated next week. How deeply we desire that all people feel the peace, the love, and the joy of the season, and we do our best to bring the Divine Light into the dark places in the world.

We ask our Inner Wisdom, “What is mine to do?” In deep, authentic listening, we receive the answers and allow ourselves to give our gifts generously and faithfully. Whether we send financial support to feed people physically or spiritually, make personal visits to those in need, or lift others in prayer, we can make a difference by shining our individual lights. Often, it begins in our own homes, honoring, cherishing, and raising up the people who are near and dear to us.

Yes, let there be Peace on Earth, and let it begin with each of us. Thank you for asking the right questions, following Infinite Wisdom, and sharing the Divine Love Light, as we continue to raise our own consciousness and to lift the human collective consciousness to a higher vibration in 2026.

Completing this month’s theme, “Bring in the Light,” this Sunday, Rev. Mike will offer his perspective on, “Honor the Light; Carry the Peace.” 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 .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.

With great love and respect,

Dr. Maxine
