Summerland members visiting the Fox sister's gravesite for the annual Founders' Day & Gratitude Day Celebration at Cypress Hills Cemetery in Brooklyn.
The grave is at the top of a hill and the wind was whipping around us all, but we paid homage to the Fox sisters, made grave rubbings, and left a beautiful flower arrangement.
We were also happy to discover the day we went was Catherine's birthday, March 27, so we also wished her well on the day she entered the Earth plane.
We left very inspired to have touched the sisters in this way.
With blessings from all of us: Terry Kruse, Karen Link, Danielle Mallon, Valerie Miller, Jane Ruggiero, and 
Frank Kotowski.

Spiritual Healing Requests
==================================================
Spirit healings result from law-governed forces being put into operation following the sending forth of a thought directive (prayer). Spirit guides and doctors will diagnose the trouble and its cause, attention being directed to overcoming the cause, and then removing the symptoms.
Please set time aside each day to send healing thoughts for each of those listed below, that they may receive from Spirit that which is for their highest and best needs.
Your healing prayers are needed and benefit others in ways we may never know.

Prayer for Spiritual Healing
I ask the Great Unseen Healing Force
To remove all obstructions 

From my mind and body 
And to restore me to perfect health.
I ask this in all sincerity and honesty
And I will do my part.

I ask this Great Unseen Healing Force
To help both present and absent ones
Who are in need of help
And to restore them to perfect health.
I put my trust 
and love in the power of God.

On this day, Summerland members will gather to visit the Fox sisters gravesite at Cypress Hills Cemetery in Brooklyn, New York. 

March 31 is the Anniversary of Modern Spiritualism, when sisters Catherine and Margueretta, along with their mother, communicated with a spirit known as Charles Rosna (his last name is more likely Cresmer) on March 31, 1848, ushering in Modern Spiritualism and the advancement of mediumship.
Backup visit date is April 3.

Prayer for Ukraine ... by Marianne Williamson
Dear God,
Please send miracles
to the people of Ukraine.
Send angels to minister unto them.
Bring calm and peace to their frightened hearts.
Awaken in Vladimir Putin
the truth of who we are.
Soften his heart and remind him of his soul.
Please God, may there be peace.
Amen

St. Gertrude of Nivelles Day 

Picture
"...  truth be told, there is no official patron saint for cats.
The job fell to St. Gertrude of Nevilles because she is the patron saint of mice. Cats like mice. So there you go.  St. Gertrude is actually not the patron saint of mice, either. She was particularly devoted to the Poor Souls in Purgatory and they were often depicted as mice.  St. Gertrude is actually the patron saint of travelers, because she took care of travelers in this world. Legend has it that your first day in the next world is spent with St. Gertrude.  The day after that is spent with St. Michael the Archangel.  Of course, somebody just made that up. But I wouldn't mind it if it were true.  Maybe they tell us everything we we always wanted to know, like who shot Kennedy. But there are no 'days' in the next world."  http://asksistermarymartha.blogspot.com/2009/03/st-gertrude-of-mices.html

Reading for Two People in a Sitting
Hi, everyone.  This Thursday night at 7:30 pm on Zoom, we will be working on giving messages to two or more people with you.  Each medium will be asked to give a reading (intuitive or mediumistically) to two other people with them (the “sitters”).  Mediums must focus on each sitter separately and learn to end one reading with a sitter and move into the next reading for a different sitter.

Spiritual Healing Requests
==================================================
Spirit healings result from law-governed forces being put into operation following the sending forth of a thought directive (prayer). Spirit guides and doctors will diagnose the trouble and its cause, attention being directed to overcoming the cause, and then removing the symptoms.
Please set time aside each day to send healing thoughts for each of those listed below, that they may receive from Spirit that which is for their highest and best needs.
Your healing prayers are needed and benefit others in ways we may never know.

Prayer for Spiritual Healing
I ask the Great Unseen Healing Force
To remove all obstructions 

From my mind and body 
And to restore me to perfect health.
I ask this in all sincerity and honesty
And I will do my part.

I ask this Great Unseen Healing Force
To help both present and absent ones
Who are in need of help
And to restore them to perfect health.
I put my trust 
and love in the power of God.

Prayer for Ukraine ... by Marianne Williamson
Dear God,
Please send miracles
to the people of Ukraine.
Send angels to minister unto them.
Bring calm and peace to their frightened hearts.
Awaken in Vladimir Putin
the truth of who we are.
Soften his heart and remind him of his soul.
Please God, may there be peace.
Amen

Why we are seeing so many sunflowers lately?  The sunflower is Ukraine's national flower and has quickly become a symbol of solidarity with the country and its people.

It is a pleasure for us  to serve Spirit and our
community.  Here is a list of the Board Members
who are here to help you.  Blessings.....
