REFLECTION: Friday Night Gatherings

I may have shared this before and maybe even once again before that….It happens every time we gather.  Whether for Medicine Wheel on the First Friday of the Month or Sacred Space on the 2nd and 4th Fridays or for the study of the Cosmos and the Christ on the 3rd Friday – Doesn’t make any difference, it happens every single time.

We are all finished sharing food, fellowship, our lives and then our deep prayer moments through whatever topic or focus for the evening.  I hear it every single time.

Last Friday we had a first timer come and experience the Medicine Wheel and she said it in a new way.  So what is it that is said every single time…..

“That was the most meaningful time ever.”  Or, “I am so glad I found you.  I feel so good being with like-minded people who understand me and don’t judge my unique way of thinking and being.” Or, “That was so powerful!  I say it every time cause every time it feels more powerful than the last.”  Or, “This is why I keep coming back.”

It is a wonder to me to; the way Spirit shows up and turns us inside out and upside down.  We wander through songs and movements and deep silence and heartbeat drumming and always we come out the other end with deep sighs of:  “It doesn’t get any better than that.”  AND,  “It is so difficult to explain to others the MAGIC that happens when we come together.”  AND, “There are so many who could benefit from what happens here if they only knew.”

What we have discovered and what Friday’s spiritual seeker voiced…no one can tell you about it.  What happens here can’t be explained in words.  You wouldn’t believe a word of it anyway.  You simply need to come ONCE and find out for yourself if this is the place for you to connect with Spirit and others in a deep meaningful way….that just might be exactly what you have been missing and didn’t even know it.  What if, you came and you connected with Spirit in a way that changed your life?

Come on and give yourself the opportunity to say yes or no to your hungering soul.  I have never met a person who isn’t hungering..... Time to be fed???????
