“Contemplating the Thoughts of Awakening ~ A Daily Devotional Practice”, #61 Contemplation

Listen to Recording

Join Rev. Michele Hojnacki, Sami Ross and Jai Segal for their program, Contemplating the Thoughts of Awakening – A Daily Devotional Practice. This year-long daily devotional program began on January 1, 2025, and is held seven days a week from 8:30am – 9:00am ET / 6:30am – 7:00am MT.

The group’s aim is to support one another in a daily practice of inner listening using the Thoughts of Awakening. This group could benefit those new to inner contemplation or anyone wishing to enhance their practice. Daily, we will contemplate a single Thought of Awakening with our inner teacher. Following Regina’s recommendation, we’ll write it down and carrying it with us for reflection throughout the day, as well as reflecting on and putting into practice guidance received from our own inner teacher.

The invitation to join extends to all, even if attending the daily sessions is not possible.

New Gentle Healing Group for Year 3 Begins March 3, 2025

The Gentle Healing curriculum guides a group of committed students who would like to make consistent, gentle progress toward genuine peace, joy, and love.

A new Year 3 group, led by Rev. Michele Hojnacki, will meet weekly in the Sanctuary on Mondays starting March 3rd at 5-6 pm ET/4-5 pm MT. Please be aware that Gentle Healing Years 1 and 2 are prerequisites for participation in this program. We don’t recommend Year 3 for anyone who has not completed Year 2. This is because the contemplations build a clear understanding of the spiritual teachings that are taught in Year 1 and Year 2.

Year 3 is based on The Seven Steps to Awakening and the supporting book, Out of the Stillness which will be contemplated with Inner Wisdom. Participants will be asked to participate in class and to post their contemplations on the Awakening Together Forum. If you plan to join this Year 3 group and have not yet registered for the Forum, you may do so here: Awakening Together Discussion Forum.

Rev. Shawna Summers ~ Sacred Inquiry ~ 3-2-2025

Rev. Shawna demonstrates the art of Sacred Inquiry in real-time. She follows Guidance, questioning each layer that the thinking mind offers as it attempts to hide the blocks to the Wisdom inherent in us all. She listens, going deeper into beginners’ Mind, with humble and honest curiosity. This is an evolving process, as she feels for the vibrational level of each thought, exploring and fully feeling What IS. Her real-time contemplation is guided moment to moment by Inner Wisdom.

03-02-25 Weekly Gathering, “Beyond the Known” with Rev. Cyndi Krupp

Title: “Beyond the Known”

Description: In order to know who we are it is required that we give our willingness to let go of who we are not. And what we “are not”, in Truth, is anything that has even a flavor of fear. Join Rev. Cyndi during this gathering as she shares her experience using a very simple prayer to uncover and release fear thoughts that block the experience of Truth.

Reading: Rona Marren read an excerpt from “The Only Little Prayer You Need” by Debra Landwehr Engle.

Registration Open! Freedom From the Judge ~ Online Retreat: April 11-13

Freedom From the Judge
April 11-13
with Jacquelyn Eckert

An Online Retreat

There is nothing more important to true growth than realizing that you are not the voice of the mind – you are the one who hears it.’ ~ Michael Singer.

Whether we realize it or not, our lives are structured around pleasing what might be called our internal “judge” (aka, the ego or internal critic). In this retreat, we will learn to identify the judge, which is nothing more than a cluster of ideas, standards and beliefs. We will look at how this cluster of thought directs our actions, attention and aspirations.

You will learn to recognize that the voice of the judge is not your voice and learn how hearing this voice as “other” is helpful in discovering you are not your thoughts. We will also examine the ways in which we engage the judge even though we are attempting to disengage and, we will practice disengaging from the judge as a prerequisite to abiding in no-self.

Retreat Schedule

The retreat will begin at 10am ET (8am MT) and end at 5pm ET (3pm MT) each day.  A 2-hour lunch period will be provided beginning about 1pm ET (11am MT).

Retreat Fee is $180

$50 non-refundable deposit is required

REGISTRATION CLOSED

Registration Closes on April 7th at 5pm ET
