Pebble Hill Sunday Celebration, July 5th

We are honored to have Doreen Stratton join us for the Sunday Celebration at Pebble Hill Interfaith Church on July 5th to share with us the concept of Sankofa, a word in the Akan language of Ghana meaning “to retrieve”. Sankofa is often associated with the proverb, “Se wo were fi na wosankofa a yenkyi,” which translates as: It is not wrong to go back for that which you have forgotten.” We can certainly all learn from this concept and proverb. Let’s hear what she has to say.

Doreen made a career in the fields of government defense, the space industry, and video games (Atari) and has devoted herself to her family and to activism and volunteerism in her community. She has been named the 2026 recipient of the Bucks County Women’s History Month Award. A sojourn to Ghana in 1999 was a return to the land of her ancestors. It was a wish completed and open a door to spread the message of culture, ancestry, and history.

June 28 Sunday Celebration with Melissa Ann - Sound Healing, Somatic Awareness, and Embodiment

Join Melissa Ann for an interactive morning of sound, somatic awareness, and embodied self-exploration.
Melissa is a Licensed Professional Counselor, trauma-informed therapist, Advanced Trauma-Sensitive Yoga Instructor, and holistic wellness practitioner. Her work is rooted in compassion, nervous system healing, and the belief in each person’s innate capacity for growth, resilience, and transformation.
This experiential offering invites participants to slow down, create space within, and explore the bridge between inner and outer worlds through vibration, breath, and presence.
Participants will be guided through an immersive journey using:
Planetary Tuning Forks — cultivating presence through vibration and embodied listening
Shruti Box & Vocal Resonance — using humming and voice as a bridge into inner awareness
Heart-Centered Somatic Meditation — breath, body awareness, and reflection for self-compassion and authenticity
Chakra Singing Bowls — sound immersion for nervous system regulation, balance, and integration
This space gently supports the acknowledgment of the parts of ourselves often held beneath overwhelm or conditioning, allowing for deeper self-understanding, self-love, and personal sovereignty.
The tending begins within. As above, so below. Inner worlds, outer worlds.

Love is all.

Sunday Celebration June 14 at Pebble Hill Interfaith Church 10:30 AM
By Michael Shoeman

Spirituality and Politics:
Six Conversations Toward Deep Democracy

Does spirituality belong in politics? More importantly, does political discourse have a place in spiritual communities?

Presented at Pebble Hill Interfaith Church, this presentation is more dialog than lecture. It will be a testament to how any ideology untethered from the heart sometimes becomes pathology.

Michael Shoeman, Ministry Candidate through the Eighth Flame Fellowship, will engage the congregation in six “mini-conversations”: Appreciation, Possibility, Invitation, Dissent, Response-ability and Commitment.

In observance of Juneteenth, Michael will gently offer up the qualities of white supremacy culture and what European Americans can do to provide safer, trauma-informed environments. Perhaps those uncomfortable conversations about politics and religion no longer need to be swept under the rug as we take a closer look at the cultural conditioning which often informs our political and religious discourse.

Sunday May 17th Celebration Koinonia Farm through the Eyes of Pebble Folks: Then and Now

Led by Rev. Susan Manning

Barbara Atkinson with Gary and Jennifer Culp (on Zoom) present this Sunday’s program about Koinonia Farm in Georgia. The name Koinonia, a Greek word which means “community, fellowship” exemplifies the principle of its name. Founded in 1942 by white Baptist minister Clarence Jordan and his wife Florence, they envisioned white and black people working together in harmony and treated as equals. As the Civil Rights movement began to grow a few years later, Koinonia Farm became the target of racist fear among white folks in SW Georgia. They were targeted with dangerous violence, threats, investigations and raids by the K*K. Boycotts of their farm products and retribution for townspeople who supplied them and forced them to shift to mail-order goods, shipping to more supportive buyers and Pebble people have been recently ordering as well.

The Culps lived and volunteered at Koinonia Farm in 1981/2 for a year. Gary will tell the story of their sojourn. This included acquaintance with local residents Jimmy and Roslynn Carter, and an invitation that led to connection between Koinonia and the newly-founded Habitat for Humanity. They will join us on Zoom from Sayulita in Mexico and Vashon Island WA.

Barbara and her sister Sue Atkinson visited Koinonia Farm this past January (taking the Midnight Train to/from Georgia) and were warmly welcomed. She will speak about their visit and show photos. Her talk will also touch on connections with other communities such as Bryn Gweled Homesteads, where Barbara resides. BG was founded in 1940 with a similar vision of racial equity and living in harmony in Bucks County during that era of change and resistance in the Northeast. BGers have been purchasing Koinonia products for 8 decades.

APRIL 5th CELEBRATION – EASTER SUNDAY AT PEBBLE HILL

An Interfaith Community Church

BELOVED SPEAKER, TOM LEGERE, Ph.D SPEAKS ON “THE GREAT MANIFESTATION”
This Easter Sunday at Pebble, the community will be honored by a return visit from Tom Legere, one of our favorite speakers, a great friend to many, and a faculty member of the School of Sacred Ministries.
Tom’s talk is entitled “The Great Manifestation,” and here’s his summary:
Easter Sunday, celebrating the “resurrection” of Jesus, is the central feast of Christianity. It is held, officially, although not in importance given to it, as the most important feast in Christianity. But what does the “resurrection” really mean? Is it literal or is it a metaphor? What is its relevance for us today?
It is a story about hope, a story about our destiny as part of human evolution. It is about confidence that all of humanity is part of something truly cosmic in scale. It is a reason for us to joyfully rise each day as we say “Yes” to being a crucial part of evolution!
You are invited to “Take Hold” as God lifts us out of darkness and shows us the way!

Tom’s Bio: With a background that includes degrees in philosophy, theology and spirituality, in addition to a Ph.D. in psychology, Dr. Legere offers a background that is truly universal. Ordained a priest at the Vatican, Tom is an author of three books, a frequent speaker on television and lately appearing on podcasts, and with his own page on spiritual growth, Tom was a member of the faculty of the Pebble School of Sacred Ministries since its very beginning. He has lectured on three continents and taught graduate students over a 51 year career.He was awarded a lifetime achievement award in teaching from Fordham University.
Join us at 10:30am in the Red Barn or on Zoom.
