Monthly Community Potluck follows the service.
In 2024, our spiritual discernment will be Making a Home for the Mystic Heart
The month of March will focus upon “Gratitude”
Our main source of inspiration for this year is Interspiritual Meditation by Edward W. Bastian. In this book, he points out the necessity for our spiritual practices to be performed in a context of intention and wisdom that supports and informs them. He outlines a series of steps we can take to help integrate our practice, wisdom, and daily life.
We can consider each of these steps in a personal, communal, or universal domain. Also, as particular independent practices or as elements in a ritual sequence.

This inclusive spiritual practice is called SiSiWiss (pronounced See See Wiss). Ttranslated into English means sacred breath, or sacred life. The SiSiWiss spiritual practice originates from the San Juan Islands and spread as a spiritual practice all through western Washington down to Siletz, Oregon. SiSiWiss traditions also spread to many of the Gulf Islands, including Vancouver Island and much of the NW coastal areas of B.C. The practice of SiSiWiss is understood as a medicine way or path, medicine meaning healing path.
ABOUT SiSwinKlae:
