This 5th Sunday Worship will include Sally Jo Gilbert de Vargas’s ordination as co-minister at Interfaith Community Sanctuary.

In 2024, our spiritual discernment will be Making a Home for the Mystic Heart
The month will focus upon  “Mindfulness Through Breath”: Once we have withdrawn our sensory awareness into the subtle consciousness of the heart center, we can enter into the pristine clarity of direct wisdom.

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.
