I was having a conversation with a woman on the plane as I came home from retreat, and she was longing for spiritual community. It made me reflect on how many people, who are looking to grow and to heal, are not able to find a body to grow with. This is sad to me because spiritual community is a huge part of the growth into God. As a group we can meditate together, talk about real things, and serve in our communities together. We can also share deeper parts of ourselves across from others who are committed to the same sharing. When you are in community with The Centers of Light, you will also benefit from having a Teacher around to mediate when communication gets hard. In my own growth, I have deepened exponentially from the times that I have shared my experience and was received with compassion and love by my brothers and sisters. I have felt God's Love more deeply and joyfully in the process. I also have to say that we have a lot of fun together as well; there is a lot of laughter and joy that happens as we spend time together. So, come join us as we grow into God's Love within a true Spiritual Family. |
