The lovely Virginia Gordon chaired for our own Sarah Dorgan last night in Chawton. We had a lovely time! Thank you!!
This year I didn’t see the blackbird chicks in my garden, but I have noticed their parents much more over the past few weeks.
At the weekend, the male perched on the bird table and, for nearly half an hour, this usually shy garden visitor seemed to share some moments chirping back and forth with me. I imitated his chirps, and each time he answered with a slightly different pattern. I finally had to get on with my day, but it felt quite unusual for such a shy and cautious bird and was a wonderfully uplifting way to begin an early summer morning.
Though blackbirds are not strictly monogamous, pairs will often return to the same territory together year after year if both have survived the winter. They are also remarkably intelligent and can recognise individual humans by their appearance, routines and even their voices.
The blackbird is actually a member of the thrush family, a medium-sized, ground-feeding songbird with a truly beautiful voice. It is no surprise that Paul McCartney wrote his famous song, Blackbird.
“Blackbird singing in the dead of night…”
Blackbirds sometimes sing after dark because of light pollution confusing them.
The female is a gentle, soft brown, while the male is unmistakable with his glossy jet-black feathers and bright golden-yellow beak. They have long been woven into myth and folklore. Far from being a bad omen, the blackbird has often been seen as a messenger of hope, renewal, transformation and new awareness.
Last night we had many messengers of hope and love as our own Sarah Dorgan took the platform to share an inspiring message about slowing down, taking a moment to stop and smell the roses. She then went on to bring some beautiful messages. It was a lovely evening of laughter, and chaired beautifully by Virginia Gordon. Thank you so much, ladies.
Our church family offered beautiful prayers and readings that lifted the energy in the room. There was cake, there was music, and there was much laughter.
Thank you, Julie, for our music. Thank you, Carol and Chris, for your wonderful hospitality. Thank you to our healers, and to everyone who helped with the setup and breakdown after the gathering.
PRAYER OF THE WEEK
Please pray for Peace close to home and across our world, for all those who need that solace in their lives.
Calendar up tomorrow.
Have a beautiful week.
Take a moment…. You’re allowed.

Catch Up on Rob Harvey’s Latest Blogs: Purpose, Service and Free Will
Every week I share thoughts and experiences from over 50 years of working as a medium, answering many of the questions people ask about life after death, spiritual development and our purpose here on Earth.
If you’ve missed some of the recent blogs, here’s a quick look at the latest three articles.
What Is the Purpose of Life?
One of the biggest questions humanity has ever asked is, “Why are we here?”
In this blog, I explore why I believe our life on Earth is just one stage of a much longer journey. Through my work helping spirits move on and teaching mediumship, I’ve witnessed countless examples that reinforce the idea that life continues beyond physical death.
Rather than seeing life as something to simply get through, we can begin to understand it as a school—a place where we learn, grow and develop spiritually. Every challenge, every joy and every relationship has a purpose in helping us become who we are meant to be.

The Secret to Spiritual Progress: Help Others First
Many people spend years searching for spiritual growth, wondering how they can become more connected with the spirit world.
The answer may be much simpler than you think.
In this article, I explain why genuine spiritual progress doesn’t begin with seeking special abilities or extraordinary experiences. Instead, it begins with service. When we focus on helping other people, we naturally become more compassionate, less self-centred and more aligned with the qualities that allow us to develop spiritually.
It’s a lesson I’ve seen repeated countless times throughout my years of teaching and working as a medium.

Understanding Free Will: Why the Choices We Make Matter
If our loved ones in spirit still exist, why don’t they simply tell us exactly what to do?
This is one of the questions I hear most often.
In this blog, I explain the importance of free will and why those in the spirit world cannot live our lives for us. They can offer love, encouragement and reassurance, but the decisions remain ours to make.
Our choices shape who we become, and it is through making those decisions ourselves that we continue to learn and evolve.
Understanding free will helps explain not only how mediumship works, but also why personal responsibility is such an important part of our spiritual journey.

Continue Your Spiritual Journey
Whether you’re exploring the purpose of life, looking to deepen your spiritual understanding, or simply curious about what happens after we die, I hope these articles give you something to reflect on.
Each blog explores a different part of our spiritual journey, but together they reveal a simple message: we are here to learn, to grow, to help one another and to make the most of the choices we are given.
If you enjoy these articles, keep checking back as new blogs are added regularly.
