All Times are Eastern Standard Time – See links below to join us in the Sanctuary 

Join us at 9:30 am ET/ 7:30 am MT for Contemplating Poetry Using Lectio Divina with Rev. Susan Telford

Rev. Susan Telford will be guiding us in learning the contemplative practice of Lectio Divina using poetry.

In each session, Susan will read a poem, drawing from a wide range of poets, including Rumi, Hafiz, David Whyte, Mary Oliver, John O’Donohue, and many others (including her own work), then guide participants through the four steps of Lectio Divina. Susan shares that this direct practice is a beautiful way to connect with Inner Wisdom and obtain clarity.

Join us at 10:15 am ET/ 8:15 am MT
for Our Weekly Gathering with
Rev. Jacquelyn Eckert

Title: “I Am Determined to See”

Description: Rev. Jacquelyn will review the first several ACIM Lessons and corresponding tips from Consistent Gentle Healing as a reminder of the work we are to do on our spiritual journey to seeing with true perception. As NTI Luke reminds us, “The work you are to do is within the mind. It is a work of being aware, not of the world, but of your thoughts about the world.” We will explore, together, the subtlety and pervasiveness of the ego thought system and how what we have been asked to do becomes lost in everyday life.

*Weekly gathering is held every Sunday morning at 10:15 am ET/8:15 am MT in the Awakening Together Sanctuary. Join us after the Gathering for our Fellowship Time, hosted by Joy Bedford.

Join us at 12:00 pm ET/ 10:00 am MT for Just Being Here Now with Anja Janssen 

Everything is already here now, so all we have to ‘do’ is be. In this program, Anja will look deeply into the now, the present moment, to explore how truth presents itself. She will be using everyday experiences and events to practice being present with what is. She will also share a variety of teachings about the now, the illusion of time, and resting in beingness. Some of the teachers and texts she will draw from are Eckhart Tolle, Lao Tzu, Angelo Dilullo, A Course in Miracles & NTI. Join Anja in using our everyday experiences to embrace the present moment and be.

Join us at 1:30 pm ET/ 11:30 am MT for Reflections from “Five Unexpected Pathways to Wisdom” Retreat

Join us to hear from the recent retreat participants who attended the online retreat, “Five Unexpected Pathways to Wisdom”.

The “Five Unexpected Pathways to Wisdom” retreat was a 5-day online retreat led by Rev. Anne Blanchard. It was designed to help participants learn about five unexpected pathways to wisdom: thought, judgment, pain, helplessness, and confusion. These five pathways are usually thought of as obstacles. With just the slightest shift it is seen that an obstacle becomes a pathway.

During the program, participants will have the chance to share their experiences and insights, discussing any breakthroughs and wisdom they’ve gained. All are warmly invited to join in as we collectively deepen our understanding and clarity from the retreat.

All are welcome to join!

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.
