Sunday Morning Talk
Our Sunday event is a time of celebration, with music, a lively message and social time. Our message includes elements of science, psychology, philosophy and the best of the enduring spiritual teachings, delivered with compassion, humor and conviction.
 Meet new friends and connect with the wonderful world of New Thought spirituality.  We are part of an international movement whose aim is to liberate religion from superstition and dogma, awakening humanity to its real nature.  We were born, not as original sin, but as an original blessing, each and every one of us.  No matter where you have been, you are welcome here!
"The Pendulum Swings"
You may have noticed that when you set about to make a positive change for yourself, after a short while the old ways become insistent on staying active. In the wider context, the very same thing that caused our collective problems is what some want to make stronger! When the pendulum swings way over into new territory there is almost
always an attempt to stop the forward movement.
We can take charge of our own experience and keep our progress on track.
