| Thank you !! We are asking for love donations at this time during our online church services to support our work and to allow us to continue through these troubling times. We are not meeting in person so can't pass around the offering plate to help us with ongoing operating expenses that need to be paid: partial rent, full insurance, Zoom fees, payment to the national organization, to name a few. https://www.summerlandchurchoflight.org/payments--donations.html Scroll to 'Online Church Service'. |

| Mercury retrograde: May 10–June 3. Shedding superficiality for self-assurance, and mediocrity for authenticity. & Scorpio-Taurus total Lunar Eclipse, May 15-16 "During this year of intense transitions, I hope you know that “All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of thing shall be well.” as the English mystic Julian of Norwich tells us. With the war in Ukraine and the war against women (and everything else) here in the US, we can easily fall into despair and worry, but if we look at the bigger picture, it is clear that the world is at a crossroads -- will we choose the future and freedom, or the past and more domination by the patriarchy. Instead of despair, we are called to stand up for our values (a Taurus lesson) and take responsibility for our world (Saturn in Aquarius). Mercury goes retrograde Tuesday, May 10th. This retrograde is a call for us to let go of superficiality and deepen into the sacred OM of life. Then on May 15-16, those of us in the Americas will see the Scorpio total Lunar Eclipse. This eclipse works with the Mercury retrograde, inviting us to really look at our shadows to see what is holding us back for our individual sense of freedom. Once we acknowledge that it is our divine Feminine nature that speaks through the soul, we can embody it in our outer lives." Much more to read at: https://wisdom-of-astrology.blogspot.com/ |

| ================================================== 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.
