January 25, Founder's Day
January 25 is observed each year as Founders Day, honoring Andrew Jackson Davis and the founding of the Spiritualist Progressive Lyceum on January 25, 1863.
In 1863, Davis gave a lecture in New York idyllically 
describing the education of children in the Summerland in garden schools called Lyceums--a name used by the popular adult education lecture programs of 19th century America. He inspired his listeners to found such schools here below on Earth, starting the Children's Lyceum or Spiritualist Sunday School movement.

Last Sunday, the service at Summerland was deeply moving. "T" gave a wonderful meditation on finding our own "book" and creating our space. Bill's lecture gave much us much to ponder this holiday season. Why should the spirit of giving and showing kindness to others stop at the end of Christmas day? And Frank gave us all a holiday present, greetings from Spirit to each congregant! The vibrations were very high and reflected the heightened energies on many levels at this special time of year.
