The Awakening Together Weekly Gathering is a wonderful opportunity for us to come together and associate with one another as a close knit spiritual community that is deeply joined through our common spiritual purpose, to awaken to one true Self.
The Weekly Gathering begins each Sunday at 10:15 am Eastern Time.
It lasts until 11:30 am ET and is followed by a “fellowship hour” where everyone is invited to share. The fellowship hour is facilitated by Lyn Johnson.
Our Weekly Gathering is held on Sundays at 10:15am ET in the Awakening Together Sanctuary.
Rev. Jacquelyn Eckert’s topic today was, “Experiencing Reality / Experiencing the Now”. Rev. Jacquelyn explored the idea that to recognize the gulf between aliveness itself and anything generated by the mind (however “true” it appears to be) is a liberating discovery and the way to come to know what you deeply are.

Our Weekly gathering is held every Sunday morning at 10:15am ET in the Awakening Together Sanctuary. Join us after the Gathering for our Fellowship Hour, hosted by Lyn Johnson.
Our Weekly Gathering is Sunday at 10:15am ET in the Awakening Together Sanctuary. Reverend Jacquelyn Eckert’s topic today was “Love is for Giving”. We will look more closely at the Truth behind the notion that we are the source of love rather than its recipient from an outside source and that we need merely practice turning our awareness to ourselves as source in order to experience love in its full and pure form.
Rubye Nassar read from the article, “Love is for Giving”, by Nirmala. Here is a link to this reading

Join us for this 75-minute Weekly Gathering audio led by Rev. Jay McCormick for an interesting look at some of the common ego traps that come to meet us on the spiritual journey as we walk our ONE path to awakening. We will review several of them and how this awareness will help allow them to be forgiven and released. Highlighted is a reading from Bob Fergeson’s book “The Listening Attention” from a section entitled “Facts and Fantasy”. Highlighted is the importance of remembering it’s “where the teaching is leading you, not what the teaching is saying”. Both Rev. Gloria Wells and Nancy Sullivan share after the main message is concluded.
