Meet Our Ministers

 

Rev. Dr. Maxine Kaye

Spiritual Leader
(760) 574-2490

Rev. Dr. Maxine has been our Spiritual Leader since 2015, having served CSL Centers in California since 1976. She is a clear and gentle teacher, a respected and joyful speaker of high consciousness, and a compassionate Pastoral Counselor. She and Rev. Mike are active in the Mainline Ministerium, as well as participating in other global outreach activities, such as the Parliament of the World’s Religions.

She loves working one-on-one with members and friends, as well as teaching delightful, mind-and-heart-expanding classes, lifting consciousness in Sunday talks and other venues, and working closely with the Practitioners and the Board of Trustees. Agreeing with Dr. Ernest Holmes that we should . . . take what we are doing seriously, but not taking ourselves too seriously while we are doing it, she believes that, Everything is sacred; nothing is serious!

Rev. Mike Gerdes

Assistant Minister
(760) 828-7698

Rev. Mike has been an avid student of spirituality and religion for over forty-five years, beginning his study of the Science of Mind in 1977. In the late 80’s, he began studying the Bhagavad Gita, which he credits to helping him awaken to his Authentic Self.

He led a CSL Center in Kennewick, Washington, for many years and participated in Centers in Chicago before joining Dr. Maxine here at GPCSL.  Rev. Mike is known for his inspirational classes, which provide students with an opportunity to do a deep dive into spirituality. His Saturday morning Zoom Science of Mind Book Studies have created a widespread and tightly knit group of Truth seekers and finders.  It has run for many years and is always open to new students joining in “the family.”

Rev. Mike is deeply honored to be able to support Dr. Maxine as this dynamic ministry continues to unfold.
