This Sunday we are so excited to welcome Rev. Dr. Victoria Bomberry as our guest speaker who will provide us with the final installment of our February focus on forgiveness. With her talk, Journey to Freedom, she explains, ‘Freedom is intimately bound to responsibility. There can be no freedom without a shared responsibility for one another and for ourselves. Freedom is dependent upon the basic human rights of each person to live with dignity and respect. Forgiveness allows u...s to move beyond the chains that have bound us and live in a way that cultivates freedom for all.' Freedomsuch a delicious word! This month, the forgiveness work I have been following with Rev. Cassandra Rae’s sharing of ‘the four-fold path of forgiveness’ has made clear for me that I have been settling for a ‘veneer of peace’ for seven long months. This explains my off-the-chart cravings for comfort food and the heaviness of my heart. Sigh. I can see how I tricked myself into believing that this veneer was the genuine article. The agonizing letter that I buried 7 months ago is beginning to affect my health and embarking along the path of genuine forgiveness towards Peace is the answer. Yet, I am as excited about the deep work required for this journey as I would be for impending major dental surgery. Deep breath. Yup, putting on my big-girl pants, I step onto the necessarily arduous path of forgiveness towards Peace and Freedom.

Gratitude is one of the chief graces of human existence and is crowned in heaven with a consciousness of unity. Ernest Holmes Happy American Thanksgiving.

Hi Community, Rev Cassandra Rae here. I listened to this podcast today about Strong back. Soft front. Wild heart. by Brene Brown. It reminded me who I am and how I want to show up. I found it to be soothing and helpful. I invite you to have a listen.

Join us live on Zoom this Sunday at 10:30 AM Pacific for The Grateful and Cheerful Receiver with Tamara Rossander, RScP & Theda Phoenix - https://mailchi.mp/9f6cce912f47/staying-connected-4568504

Happy Thanksgiving Weekend! CSL White Rock is blessed with Amazing Practitioners! You may notice that I seldom mention the word Practitioner without preceding it with a descriptive adjective: incredible, fantastic, fabulous, wonderful, magnificent, marvelous...Why is that, you may ask? Well, aside from their dedication to years and endless hours of study and training to become Licensed Practitioners; aside from their unending, selfless, service to our Centre; aside from their... personal and generous tithing, back to our Centre, of their time, talent, and treasure; aside from their soul-enriching meditations and affirmative prayers for our members; aside from their community-supporting meetups; aside from their continuous ‘Yes!‘ to all requests to actively support, run, and participate in fundraisers; aside from their dedication as facilitators, presiders, and greeters in all manner of functions, in person and online; and everything else of which I am unaware of their other works of heart and soul...well... As a member of the Board of Trustees for the past four years, I know that none of our out-going payments, except for classes that they may offer and teach, goes to our Unbelievably, Incredible Practitioners. I have more questions than answers about the generosity, dedication, and love these Precious Practitioners gift to us. This week, they were running our Sunday Gathering with Harvesting Gratitude: ‘Welcome to this plentiful time of year where the harvest of the past season comes to life. What does harvesting gratitude mean to you? Come join the Practitioners on Thanksgiving weekend as we together embrace the balance of giving and receiving our abundance.’ Love and Gratitude Sherry Dolejsi Board Chair Subscribe our YouTube at: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCexa6rOsTVOVoeHaIlIuRgQ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This can be your anthem too! The very talented Amber Darland wrote this song for days like today. Breathe. Listen. Sing it out. Remain hopeful. We are sacred.

Say YES to love.

Hello community. Rev Cassandra Rae here. It is election day in the U.S. today and I am feeling all the feelings. And that’s okay. It’s okay to feel what’s in your heart. When I notice that I’m getting overwhelmed or hyper-focused on what-ifs I take a breath and I remember my vision for this world. > I see a reality where people come together in hard times, where dignity and respect are a given because we recognize and prioritize our shared humanity. > I see a world where ...black, indigenous, and people of colour are safe, celebrated, and leading the way. > I see a reality where LGBTQ folks are free to express themselves and their love without fear, where laws protect their rights, their marriages, and their lives. > I see a world where women receive the same amount of respect, pay, and consideration that men are afforded. > I see a reality where differently abled folks are embraced, accommodated, and valued for the amazing gifts they bring to the table. > I see a world where the earth is cherished for the gift that it is, where we no longer just take what we need without regard but where we are stewards and caretakers of this planet we call home. > I see a reality where bodies of all shapes, sizes, and abilities are loved, trusted, and nurtured. > I see a world where people connect across generations creating and collaborating together, where we listen to one another and value the wisdom at all ages. I am dedicated to being of service to this vision. I promise to do what I can, where I can, and when I can to support this new reality. No matter what happens on the election today, I remain committed to this vision of a world that works for all people, all beings, and all creation. And so it is.

There is something delicious in knowing that any-day, any-hour-of-the-day, as-often-as-I-please I can watch and listen to Rev. Cassandra Rae’s intriguing talks on YouTube! My sudden realization of this occurred because the other night, my friend, Sharon, unable to sleep, got up and watched one at midnight! Thank you for this idea, Sharon - how brilliant! I hardly remember the days when we got one shot to hear Rev. Cassandraand it was only in person. Imagine - we now have a g...rowing library of inspiring, thought-provoking videos to enjoy. About this week’s compelling talk, Adventures in Conscious Creation, Rev. Cassandra wrote: If the Universe is abundant and our birthright is prosperity, how then do we become an outlet of opulence? Each one of us must set the creative process in motion with our own thoughts, emotions, and actions. Join us for an adventure in conscious creation as we expand our hearts and mind to receive and experience that which we envision. In this video, you can also enjoy how CSL White Rock helps Tim - one of our Board members on his spiritual journey. Tune in and let us know your thoughts.

Life is speaking to us all of the time. Many of the challenges we experience are opportunities to activate our latent potential.

Savanna invites us into the exploration of a compassionate heart and the power of love to transform any challenge. https://youtu.be/UP6ouWuTAPY

As a non-subscriber to cable TV, I have been on a quest for many years to find a replacement for my beloved Oprah. Well, I am officially announcing that I have found someone! Someone authentic, who speaks the Truth and buoys me up to my highest and best. Someone who walks-the-talk and opens my mind and heart to Possibilities I never imagined on my own. Someone who inspires me to grow, thrive, and flourish. Someone who delves deep into difficult topics with heart and courage a...nd has an amazing book club. After almost one year, Rev. Cassandra Rae has more than demonstrated that I can stop my search. Who needs cable anyways when the real deal is here in person? YES! Move over Oprah, Rev. Cassandra Rae is in the house! Look what she has planned for this week... Unleashing Your Creative Power is Rev. Cassandra Rae's topic for Sunday. She writes: 'Where does your creative power come from? And how can you tap into it? Join us as we delve into the principles and practices that open us up to receive the gifts of Spirit and be of service to the world.' Also, this 4th week of LIVE MUSIC, we were entertained by the wonderfully upbeat, positive, and heart-centered sounds of Nathen Aswell. And, yes, as the proud owner of two of Nathen's CDs, I admit to being biased. See for yourself on Sunday and here: www.NathenAswell.com Listen to the talk and get ready to be inspired by our one-of-a-kind Rev. Cassandra Rae and you're welcome to join us every Sunday morning.

October is a great month to reflect on gratitude! What comes up for you today.

How can you show yourself appreciation? Life is giving off itself. You must receive the gift. Notice the small things. Notice the small gifts you receive every day. Receiving the small things prepares you to receive the big things. Life is giving off itself. You must receive the gift. Notice the small things. Notice the small gifts you receive every day. Receiving small things prepares you to receive the big things.

The very first day I attended a Sunday Gathering at CSL White Rock, six years ago, I knew I had found ‘the Thing’ I had been seeking for three decades. For as long as I can remember, I always believed in God; I just could not reconcile my understanding of an unconditionally loving God with the wrathful, vengeful, angry, punitive, judgmental God, about Whom I was being force-fed. The joy I get now, from knowing the Truth of God and the truth of who I am, fills my days. I organ...ize my life around learning and understanding the Truth: attending Sunday Gatherings, workshops, courses; reading books, and expanding my spiritual practice. My joy is immeasurable even during this time of Covid-19. While I continue to learn and grow my spiritual practice based on the spiritual principles I have embraced Love, Peace, Perfect Health, Wisdom, Abundance, Grace, and Joy, I must confess that I still carry residual guilt around the idea of Prosperity and whether or not I am worthy of this. So, Rev. Cassandra Rae’s Sunday talk guided me in releasing my self-limiting beliefs around Prosperity. Rev. Cassandra writes, ‘We live in an abundantly rich Universe. And yet, how does that translate into our personal experience? We believe that the source of financial health and prosperity come from within and that each one of us can tap into it. Join us as we explore the foundational principles that empower our prosperity!’ Embracing Love and Prosperity for you, Sherry Dolejsi Board Chair Subscribe our YouTube at: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCexa6rOsTVOVoeHaIlIuRgQ

Every September 30th is Orange Shirt Day where we remember the devastating impact of residential schools. For about 125 years, indigenous children were sent to residential schools run by churches and funded by the government with the mission to "kill the Indian in the child." There was horrific harm, abuse, and neglect to generations of indigenous children and families. And if you can believe this, the last residential school was closed as recently as 1996! From the article, ..."In order to achieve reconciliation every person must make the effort to listen to the painful truths of what took place in residential schools as well as the inter-generational impacts, the Orange Shirt Day book states." May we remember. May we honour, respect, and celebrate First Nations, Metis, and Inuit people. May we open our eyes and hearts for reconciliation and for one another. See more
