The Spiritually Evolved Man and Woman 

Thursday, August 20 • 7:30 p.m.
Cost: $25

The respected What Is Enlightenment? magazine in its August 2008 issue invited Mother Clare to envision the future of men. Now she expands this discussion for both men and women to teach us about 'The Spiritually Evolved Man and Woman.' How are men and women spiritually the same and how are they different? What does this bright future look like and how can we begin to embody it now? Come meet Mother Clare Watts, Priest, author, and national speaker as she brings the process of spiritual evolution down to earth and into the realm of possibility for anyone who wants it, male or female.

Higher Worlds
Friday, August 21 • 7:30 p.m.
Cost: $25

Have you ever wondered if there are really other planes of existence besides the physical world in which we live? Many people have heard stories or had experiences of these realms, only to be invalidated by a culture which does not believe in things it cannot see. The spiritual world is a vast expanse of consciousness and energetic vibration which is much higher than that of the physical world. One’s spiritual senses must be cultivated and activated through prayer and meditation in order to relate to the higher worlds. Come and begin to reclaim your spiritual senses and experience these realities for yourself. 


Ecstatic Union with God: Our Spiritual Heritage
Saturday, August 22 • 10 a.m.
Suggested Donation: $35 (lunch included)

Most people consider their heritage as relating to a family line or a cultural significance. Very few consider their spiritual heritage which is a long line of love beings who came before and who have set the way and a path before you to inspire, support, and love you into wholeness with God. These are beings who want you to strive for more love and fullness of life and who watch for opportunities to help you achieve these things. These beings experience this love and fullness of life in every moment and know that it is possible for everyone to experience it. They are therefore motivated to help others gain that experience. Join Mother Clare Watts, Christian master teacher, as she introduces you to a whole new world and legacy carried in your soul that will make you wonder where you came from after all!

Meditation Seminar



Thursday, September 17 • 7:30 p.m.
Cost: $15

When we get still in our mind, we can draw close to the great source of peace and love. This seminar emphasizes the importance of learning to listen, without distraction, to that "still small voice" within through the practice of meditation. How does one come to this place of spiritual silence and stillness in meditation when our minds are filled with chaos and chatter? In this seminar, learn to quiet your mind and tap into a natural state of rest, peace, joy, and creativity that is possible for everyone.
