🌸 Good morning, everyone! This morning the sun has risen again—steady, generous, asking nothing. And like the sun, peace rises within us each new day, whether or not we remember to look for it. It does not disappear when life grows difficult. It does not abandon us when the hours grow long. It simply waits, quietly and faithfully, for us to turn inward and find it there—warm and whole.

This morning, let’s turn to the peace within with every mindful breath and through mindfulness in our actions throughout the day. Let’s live with it. Let’s begin here.

Today is going to be our peaceful day.
May you and all beings be well, happy, and at peace. 🙏✨

🐰 Happy Easter! 🐣

Having some church up in here!

Come One, Come All!

Bring the family to the North Hollywood Church of R.S. this coming Saturday, October 11th at 11am for our annual Animal Blessing!

Bring dogs on a leash and all other animals in carriers. If you feel they would be happier at home, bring a picture. We will have a table set up to honor the animals at home and also one to honor our beloved animal companions who have gone over the rainbow bridge. 🌈

See you there!

Get a book, leave a book. 📚

** SUNDAY! SUNDAY! SUNDAY! **

I'm being installed along with Rev. Skip Jennings, Dr. David Ault, Rev. Bill Carpenter, Rev. Tricia Klink, Rev. Marc Laponce, Rev. Erika Satie, Rev. Robin Kight Wohlford, Rev. Nadine Weathersby, and Dr. Mark Vierra at the North Hollywood Church of Religious Science Sunday, April 27th at 4pm PT. (Do you see why the graphic just says, "and Staff Ministers"?)

Some of us are new, and some, like myself, are not that new, but for all of us in attendance, it will be a fresh commitment and rededication to our beloved spiritual community.

You are invited to attend in person, or on Zoom, YouTube or on Facebook. All the info and links are available if you scroll down at:

Thank you, Dr. Sydney Lehman Steen! ❤

Hope to see you there! 🧘😊💕

The work continues.

I'm happy to announce that as of June of this year, I'm the newest Staff Minister at the North Hollywood Church of Religious Science.

I'll also be speaking this Wednesday night, October 30th, at the Heart of Healing service. My spooky topic will be, "Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark".

Meditation starts at 6:50, Service at 7pm.

Come in person or on Zoom:
