Join us at 1:30 pm ET/ 11:30 am MT for Freedom Practice Sangha – Facilitated by Anne Blanchard

This will be a time of sharing our inquiries, insights and challenges, listening to others, or just knowing that we are in community as we find that undefended place within ourselves that longs to be free.

Join us at 5:00 pm ET/ 3:00 pm MT for The Mighty Companions 

Revs. Glen Ganaway and Yolanda Mapes, who are interfaith ministers, share a delightful, funny, and inspiring hour of A Course in Miracles. Come join in on the fun, the laughs, and the music while unlearning the ego through the lessons and chapters of ACIM.

Join us at 6:00 pm ET/ 4:00 pm MT for Enlightened Leadership: Building the Foundation – Revs. Jacquelyn Eckert & Rhoda Makled 

The Tao Te Ching (The Way), written by Lao-Tzu (Old Teacher), is a guide to enlightened leadership. While most people believe effective leadership lies in knowledge and power, the Tao teaches it lies in emptiness, stillness, and presence.

Awakening Together’s President-Minister, Jacquelyn Eckert, and Vice President-Minister, Rhoda Makled share from the Tao as they contemplate its principles in order to fully embody them. In addition to the 3 versions already being read from the Tao, now the pair will also read Regina Dawn Aker’s translation of the Tao Te Ching.

Join us at 7:00 pm ET/ 5:00 pm MT for Deepening Into Clarifying the Teachings Together – Facilitated by Rev. Jacquelyn Eckert

During this program, we will listen to a portion of each previously recorded “Clarifying the Teachings” program. Afterward, we will spend time contemplating and teaching ourselves what is most alive for us at the moment. We may also spend time practicing what Regina is teaching. And…we will start at the very beginning.

Bring your journals, openness, and curiosity as we explore what is most alive in us and ready to be seen. We hope you feel inspired to join.

Join us at 7:30 pm ET/ 5:30 pm MT for Our Live Satsang with David Hemphill

As a community, our mission is to help people become Self-reliant on their own Inner Wisdom. In celebration of Awakening Together’s 10th anniversary, we are delighted to have a Satsang with Rev. David Hemphill who is a living demonstration of the fruits of this mission.

In case you don’t know David, here’s a little bit about him.

He began his spiritual path in 2012 with his mentor Nyki Dobson. Having signed the constitution of Awakening Together shortly after, he worked as a founding trustee board member and graduated from the first class of the Ministerial Preparation Program (MPP) led by Regina Dawn Akers on May 10, 2015.

Since 2015, David has remained in communal service with Awakening-Together by publishing spiritual writings, participating in the benevolence subcommittee, and occasionally teaching some MPP courses. His primary spiritual practice is surrender, meditation, and inquiry. Although able to follow spiritual discussions using spiritual language (e.g., Spirit, Guidance, True Self), most of his experience discussing and applying spiritual teachings has occurred through the context lenses of business, psychology, trauma, and interpersonal relationship. David’s favorite teachings are those of Byron Katie, Michael Langford, and Ramana Maharshi.
