Become a beacon of Light in the world

08/22/2026

We shall be known by the company we keep

By the ones who circle round to tend these fires

We shall be known by the ones who sow and reap

The seeds of change, alive from deep within the Earth.

It is time now, it is time now that we thrive

It is time we lead ourselves into the well

It is time now, and what a time to be alive

In this Great Turning, we shall learn to lead in love

In this Great Turning, we shall learn to lead in love

We'd love to invite you to join us this Sunday for our Chapel Gathering, immediately followed by our First Sunday Potluck.

After sharing a meal together, we'll gather again at 2:00 p.m. for a spiritual discussion centered on Deepening into Sacred Community—exploring what it means to truly walk this path together, support one another, and create the kind of authentic connection that allows each of us to embody our true essence.

**To help prepare for our conversation, we'd like to encourage everyone—especially those planning to attend—to watch (or listen to) the following video beforehand. As you do, notice any ideas, insights, or moments that particularly resonate with you. Feel free to jot down a few notes, as these will serve as a starting point for our discussion circle.

The video also serves as a beautiful prelude to our Lion's Gate Gathering next weekend. For those who may not be familiar, the speaker is Kelly Kolodney, who will be channeling Angel Raphael during our 8/8 gathering.

As we approach the Lion's Gate portal—a time many experience as an invitation into greater remembrance, alignment, and spiritual awakening—this conversation offers an opportunity to reflect on how we support one another in living these truths, not only as individuals but as a sacred community.

Whether you've been part of our community for years or are just beginning to find your place here, your voice, presence, and perspective are valuable. We look forward to sharing a meaningful afternoon of food, fellowship, and heartfelt conversation.

Join us for the Lion's Gate Live Stream Event where thousands will ...
