Susan shares that this direct practice is a beautiful way to connect with Inner Wisdom and obtain clarity.

1:00 pm – Sacred Inquiry – Rev. Shawna Summers
Rev. Shawna demonstrates the art of Sacred Inquiry in real time. Join her as she follows the guidance, questioning each layer that the thinking mind throws at her in an attempt to hide the wisdom that is inherent in us all. She is learning to go deeper into beginners’ mind with humble and honest curiosity. This is an evolving process, as she learns to feel for the vibrational level of each thought, exposing the source. She invites all listening to join her in their own Inquiry to experience the strength of this powerful spiritual practice. The original inspiration for this half-hour came from Adyashanti’s book ‘Sacred Inquiry’.
1:30 pm – 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.
2:30 pm – 4:45 pm Awakening Together Radio Broadcast during the break.
This is the time designated as a break so that our Sanctuary Director may have the time to rest.
5:00 pm – The Mighty Companions – Revs. Glen Ganaway and Yolanda Mapes
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.
6:00 pm – Enlightened Leadership: Building the Foundation – Facilitated by 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.
7:00 pm – 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.
7:30 pm – Live Satsang with Sarah St. Claire – Facilitated by Rev. Yolanda Mapes
Sarah St. Claire will be interviewed by Connie Poole. Sarah is a mystic devoted to the present Peace that Awakening offers. She has been Inspired by the non-dual teachings of A Course in Miracles, and the “Good News” of the Gospels.
Called to lead a Spirit-led life with many adventures of Forgiveness, Sarah’s gift is her ability to share The Answer that being joined in the Holy Spirit offers to everyone. She relays this eternal Truth of clarity, comfort, and trust through parables and metaphors, making it universal and accessible to all.
Sarah has led Satsangs, gatherings, and retreats all over the world—both in person and online. She frequently clarifies how to apply the metaphysics of The Course in practical and joyful ways: like with her animated #90DaysOfForgiveness series on YouTube, her Live ACIM show on ACIM Live, and her writings on This Mystic Life.
Lit by the light of Love Sarah demonstrates that this is a benevolent universe, a wake-up world, a mirror for the mind.
