I believe in a religion of happiness and joy. There is too much depression and sorrow in the world; these things were never meant to be and have no real place in God's world of Love. Religion should be like the morning sun, sending forth its glorious rays of light; it should be like the gently falling dew covering all; like the cool of the evening and the repose of the night. It should be a spontaneous song of joy and not a funeral dirge. From the fullness of the heart the mouth should speak.   “I believe the Creative Essence of God, the bond of Unity that binds all together in One Perfect Whole. I believe that God speaks to us in the wind and the wave and proclaims His presence to us through all nature, but most completely through our own minds and in our hearts which proclaims its Life and Love.” Ernest Holmes, SOM 1927 Looking back upon my life, I have come to realize, it flows as a continuum of purpose – “A Life Calling,” a ministry, a magnificent acquiescence to Spirit within a life, which has always ministered. Spirit ministering, through me, through the progression of a life well lived, well given, well laughed, well cried, well learned, well appreciated and well taught. It is a Good Life, really a work of art.  A successful marriage partnership of 48 years and counting,  three well grown loving children, four beautiful grandchildren, a home which is known for its graciousness, joy and laughter.

I can best be described, as an artist child of mystic bend. As a teenager at Mt. Carmel Academy so many years ago, I heard the story of Mother Teresa’s life. Her vow was to be Christ to each person she came in contact with, be it king or pauper, sick or well. She would be the “Christ” to all and would see “Christ” in all.

This intent was so awe inspiring to my young consciousness. I had heard all the stories of the saints and of Jesus’ miracles and I then believed that I could never hope to duplicate such lofty feats of faith. But I could see the Christ in all humanity on a one to one basis. This is what I had witnessed countless times by my beloved grandfather; people were the delight of his life. All people were embraced by him as friends and brothers.  This was a part of my nature. I could love and nurture all with whom I came in contact. I would emulate this sainted woman, be as Teresa, I could be Christ like, loving and forgiving, patient and kind to those I met. My heart was set upon this divine course. This was and is now my “Divine Calling.
I am a student of New Thought, Science of Mind, a Practical Spirituality, which can be used on a day to day basis toward a way of life that works for everyone. I have been a Licensed Practitioner for nearly 14 years and am currently a ministerial student with the Holmes Institute Study of Consciousness, Masters Degree Program.

The progression of my life journey is the involving of the Ideal, Spirit expressing, into the real, the evolving as my life of service, a life dedicated to “Practicing the Presence” through the power of affirmative prayer, grounded in the Truth of God which dwells within. My blessing is to see the face of God in each and all 

“Except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain Psalm 127. God has made a path for me, I will follow the Divine Urge, I see God by  looking into my brothers and sisters eyes. I pray. I know the Truth of each and all.  It is the Father’s great pleasure that we shall have life and have it abundantly, gloriously.

I answer God’s call.”
