Be inspired each day with our Spirit Calling. This is a two minute recorded message in the morning and a texted affirmation in the evening.

This week, Joy Lynn has been sharing her beautiful words of insight and wisdom on June series, "Made Sacred: Ritual and Ceremony for Our Lives."

Rev. Amani shares why rituals and ceremonies are needed, "You’ve been remembering who you are. You’ve been turning toward your spiritual nature more and more. You’ve been using your tools and remembering to do the simple things like deep breaths, gratitude, centering, and grounding…

But how do you keep it going and make this holy place your home?

It seems easier and easier to lose sight of the Good, the sacred. It seems harder and harder to hold onto love.

The stormy seas of fear, urgency, and despair only seem to be rising. If we’re not careful, we will be carried away on these waves—further and further from our true and holy nature and the power of that.

I don’t know about you, but I seem to need even stronger structures to hold what I know is true as the storms rage on."

💜REMINDER - We do not gather today. Today is a day of rest💜

Now on our website at abqcsl.org and on our YouTube channel a powerful demonstration of our Sunday movement practice led by Licensed Spiritual Practitioner, Clarissa and Jesse Kalapa from the Fab Lab.

This is also a powerful reminder of Rev. Amani's invitation to "do this work together.
Because as Bell Hooks taught us, healing does not happen in isolation. Because support matters. Encouragement matters.
Your partners in transformation are vital!

Remember May's Community Blessing:

May you trust your body as sacred, your life as worthy, and your becoming as holy.
May you have the courage to interrupt what harms, to tend what nourishes, and to receive the support that is already reaching for you.
May you choose to follow love’s lead in small ways, in bold ways, in ways that transform you and this world."

In the month of May, Rev. Amani invited each of us to interrupt "the patterns in our beliefs, conscious AND unconscious, that keep us stuck in cycles of harm, depletion, and disconnection. Patterns in our thinking. Patterns in our habits. Patterns in our bodies. Patterns in our families and relationships.
Only when a pattern is interrupted can something new begin.

This month, we practice[d] that interruption—sweetly, compassionately and powerfully using the ancient technology known as metaphysics.

To interrupt what no longer serves we must listen. And then—we choose.

There is discernment in creation.
Not everything is meant to take root.
Not every thought deserves belief.
Not every pattern deserves continuation.

Part of manifesting is learning to trust that yes again. To trust what is bubbling up from under the surface of your habits and misbeliefs.
To trust what actually nourishes your wholeness.

To trust what is emerging in your consciousness and moving you toward greater health, joy, and well-being—even in small, imperfect ways."

Be inspired each day with our Spirit Calling. This is a two minute recorded message in the morning and a texted affirmation in the evening.

This week, Jan has been sharing her beautiful words of insight and wisdom on May's series, "Becoming the Good: Manifesting Health, Healing and Wholeness."

Rev. Amani reminds us that "You are not to blame for your pain...

Not your illness.
Not your mental health struggles.
Not the patterns you inherited from family, culture, or a society that are often out of alignment with your wholeness.
And still—you are not powerless.

There is a creative process at work in all of life.
Spirit moves as infinite possibility, and Universal Law receives, organizes, and brings that possibility into form as the material world, Life Itself. This process is intelligent, responsive, and always active.
And we are part of it.
You are at choice.

You participate in this creative process through what you give your attention to…
what you believe is possible…
what you repeatedly practice…
and what you allow to take root in the soil of your consciousness.
Because your inner life is not neutral. It is fertile ground. Where the possibilities and visions for your life get started. Like rich soil, it will grow what is planted in it.
We get to choose what we plant."

Join us tomorrow at 4pm at our shared location:

We will be gathering for Fourth Sunday Supper Club potluck. Everyone is welcome to bring a dish to share during the potluck.

Rev. Amani will lead us in discussions regarding May's series, "Becoming the Good: Manifesting Health, Healing and Wholeness."

Rev. Amani shares a parable of:
"The Garden You Neglect

There was a person who dreamed of having a beautiful garden. They planted seeds of peace, vitality, and joy.
But life got busy.
They stopped tending the soil. Weeds began to grow—slowly at first.
Then everywhere.
When they finally returned, they were overwhelmed. “I didn’t plant these,” they said.
And they were right.
They didn’t choose the weeds. But they also hadn’t interrupted what was growing.
The soil had simply done what soil does—it grew what was there."
