Joyful Living Spiritual Center

Joyful Living Spiritual Center

We are an Independent New Thought Spirituality Center and Community

located in Wilbraham, Massachusetts.

We do not subscribe exclusively to any one New Old Thought belief system,

although we do follow the more"old school" Science of Mind and Spirit teachings

as presented by Ernest Holmes.

We believe that:

~ God is all there is.

~ All are One with God.

~ God is the Life Force that permeates everything that exists and causes everything to come into being.

~ We are eternal spiritual Beings who are currently incarnated in human form.

~ Our personal happiness and fulfillment are directly related to our conscious awareness of our existence as spiritual beings and of our relationship to God.

We are a tolerant, all-inclusive spiritual community that comes together to be a safe place and supportive environment for each person to explore and discern their own Spiritual Evolvement and Awareness.

What we offer:

Book Study & Spirituality Discussions of a variety of New Thought teachings
Spiritual Cinema
Spiritual Poetry
Video and Audio CDs by popular New Thought teachers
History of New Thought
Visioning
Meditation
Affirmative Prayer

Books we have recently read and discussed:

Basic Principles of Science of Mind - Frederick W. Bailes
The Art of Being: 101 Ways to Practice Purpose in Your Life - Dennis Merritt Jones
Discover the Power Within You: A Guide to the Unexplored Depths Within - Eric Butterworth
Living the Science of Mind - Ernest Homes

Sunday Study Group, 1:30 - 4:00/4:30 p.m.

We are a relatively unstructured study group...meaning, sometimes we might not discuss

everything we planned to discuss, or if something of spiritual interest and importance

surfaces, we feel quite free to talk about that instead of (or in addition to) what we

had planned on discussing!

We start about 1:30...although you can come any time after 1:00,

and we talk until people feel like they need to get going...any time between 3:30 and 4:30.

No one will mind if you can only stay for an hour and a half...come for whatever you can!

We just gather around a big table and chat about the readings for that week.

(Snacks and beverages are also provided.)

It's a very casual, friendly, engaging, tolerant, and fun atmosphere.

We hope you might want to join us! If so, please come!

Beginning August 29th, we will be taking a break from Ernest Holmes'

Living the Science of Mind

and

We will be discussing the Abraham-Hicks' book,

Ask And It Is Given

For August 29th, we will be watching the DVD:

Introducing ABRAHAM: The Secret Behind The Secret

~~~~~~

Our Purpose

To Be a tolerent, supportive, and safe place and environment for all New Thought seekers to explore their Spirituality

To Build a community and network of spiritually like-minded people in whatever capacity will serve the community

To Provide resources, and a local presence for the followers of the many New Thought spiritual communities

Our Vision

A world in which all people realize their true nature and Being

as that of Spirit, Wholeness, and One with the Universe and each other.

Our study group is comprised of individuals who are at various stages on their path along their spiritual journey.

Whether you are a newly-aware spiritual seeker or have been aware of your spiritual nature for a long time,

you will find love, friends, and support here.

Please come join us!
