If you are new to healing, spiritual development or exploring faith alongside spirituality, there are some wonderful resources available online that can help you learn more in your own time and at your own pace.
Bible Gateway is a well-known online Bible resource where you can read, search and study scripture in a wide range of translations. Whether you are looking for comfort, guidance, inspiration or simply wish to explore the teachings of Christianity more deeply, it provides an easy and accessible way to spend time with the Bible from wherever you are.
We have also included a link to Christian Spiritualism, a website dedicated to exploring the connection between Christianity and spiritualism. (This will include the archives of THE ZODIAC MESSAGES ) The site shares information on spiritual healing, mediumship, churches, events and spiritual philosophy, helping visitors better understand how faith, healing and communication with the spirit world have been approached within Christian Spiritualism for many years.
There is definitely a shift and ‘a change a-comin’.’
The blasting heat has turned to a cool breeze and quite a chill early morning. There has been some gentle misty rain during this past week which has thankfully been absorbed into the thirsty ground. And now, with some of the ferns already turning to their rusty colours, dare I say we are beginning to see shades of the coming Autumn.
The reason for our seasons is primarily the tilt of the Earth on its axis as it travels around the Sun. This tilt gives us our changing seasons, longer, warmer days when our part of the Earth is tilted towards the Sun, and shorter, colder days when it is tilted away.
And we are feeling that shift.
My walk today held a fresh breeze, sunlight strobing through the silhouettes of branches, a lost cyclist, endless dogs, and an absolutely beautiful tuxedo cat.
Yes, this handsome boy was sitting right in the middle of my pathway. He let me know, in no uncertain terms, that to pet him was a privilege denied to many. But thankfully, he allowed me the honour, and I was on my way.
And as I turned for home at the end of my walk across the heath, I was finally treated to the beauty of heather already in full bloom.
A feast not just for the eyes, but for the heart and soul. And that has been our entire weekend. A feast for the heart and soul. Saturday was our Coffee Morning, and we were busy! What a beautiful morning of readings, healings, cakes galore, and just good peeps getting together.
Thank you to our visiting mediums Helen Atkins, Gillian Blaise, Eve Cowell and Rachael Setford Berry. Thank you so much for all your hard work.
We thank our House Mediums. We thank our healers, and also our wonderful hospitality team. So much is coordinated by so many, and it is not an easy task.
Thank you, Everyone! An amazing morning.
But we did not put our feet up for long! Sunday brought the lovely Debbie Reeves, who visited with Bill. Debbie was our medium and shared truly inspired thoughts and brought wonderful messages for us.
Oh, we loved having you! Thank you, Debbie. Our own Chris Shore chaired the proceedings beautifully. Thank you, Chris.
And, as always, thank you to the family for their readings, prayers, hospitality, healing, and for all the setting up and breaking down that happens each and every week.
Prayer of the Week
Please pray for Mother Earth. Oh goodness, she goes through it. She bears the brunt of so much. She is our physical home for this time, and we must take care of her.
Calendar up later.
Have a beautiful week, everyone, as we gently march towards the end of our summertime.
We gathered last night for a lovely night of readings and prayers. Just a moment to pause in our busy week. Thank you Everyone!
Please continue to pray for those affected by the wildfires. All suffer in these devastating events.
Coffee Morning is on Saturday. We are fully booked for readings but we have healing, coffee and cakes with good conversation. Debbie Reeves is also with us on Sunday!
The two Sarah’s. The lovely Sarah Dorgan chaired for our good friend Sarah Norris in Chawton, Sunday evening. Thank you so much Sarah for your energy, passion, inspired thoughts and messages. We had a lovely time!
This is quite unbelievable, and now we are beginning to suffer some of the same ills as countries we have watched for years, beset by early drought and wildfires, which seem to be coming closer and closer to home.
The impact of no rain really has an effect when you start to notice what is happening in the natural world. I have had a beautiful Kingfisher at my bird table, shy but determined, which I have never encountered before. Perhaps the pickings are becoming much slimmer along the small river behind me.
As the beautiful green fields of rural UK start to look more like hayfields, we have to hope that everyone is being responsible, for dry brush can ignite in an instant, and embers can carry for miles. The balance of sun and rain is the balance of life in a physical world, along with fresh air to breathe and firm terrain beneath our feet.
The sun’s fierce rays may have given us the season we have long hoped for, but we are well due for a massive thunderstorm to clear the air and water the thirsty earth once more.
So, sun worshippers, enjoy, but for those who know a rain prayer/ dance or two, sooner would definitely be better than later!
We enjoyed a lovely evening last night as our good friend Sarah Norris came to visit. Sarah’s passion and enthusiasm filled the room as she shared inspired thoughts and brought us some lovely messages. Thank you so much, Sarah!
Our wonderful Sarah Dorgan chaired the evening beautifully. Thank you, Sarah two!
We thank our readers and prayer people. We thank Sue and Carole, and the cake, for their hospitality. We thank Julie for running our music. And all set up and breakdown is done is very smooth fashion. And of course we thank our healers standing by week after week to assist when neccesary. Thank you All.
PRAYER OF THE WEEK
Please, in light of these temperatures and the fire outbreaks, pray for those in harm’s way of fire everywhere. All life suffers.
