Now that we have finished the Creative Genius class, we are going to begin going through a book a meeting for the remainder of the year.  These are all books with some kind of spiritual theme, some of them New Thought.  You won't have to have read the book to get something out of the meeting - we'll try to do a summary of the book during the meeting.  After the book discussion, we'll do some kind of exercise, meditation or small group discussion related to the book's theme.  In addition, we will start bring music back into our meetings.  John Giunta will be the musician at our next meeting. Here are the books for the May through July meetings: May 4 - Love will Find You:  9 Magnets to Bring You and Your Soulmate Together by Kathryn Alice May 18 - The Field - The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe by Lynne McTaggart                                May 18 audio:  Talk by Phil Croker June 1 - The Anatomy of Healing Prayer by Ernest Holmes June 1 talk by Connee Chandler, RScP June 15 - This Thing Called You by Ernest Holmes July 6 - The Astonishing Power of Emotions - Abraham-Hicks July 20 - Ask and It is Given - Abraham-Hicks

The Sterling Study Group teaches the Principles of Science of Mind and demonstrates how members of our community have used these principles to deepen their connections to Spirit, thereby changing their lives for the better. We meet on the first and third Sunday mornings of the month  at 11:00 AM at the Hampton Inn at the Cascades Shopping Center in Sterling.  Our House Concert series and visioning sessions are held in members' homes.  Please email Connee for location or watch the Study Group email list for announcements. For more information, call (703)406-3427.

Connee Chandler, RScP, Director

Religious Science, also known as Science of Mind, teaches that it is ‘done unto us as we believe.’

Therefore, the most important work we can do to change our lives is to examine our beliefs and cultivate more expansive ideas.  Science of Mind (SOM) is both a day to day philosophy of life, and a spiritual path for those who are not already following one.

Religious Science blesses all churches and ways of Spirit, knowing there is a right path for everyone.  God is infinite, so we know God encompasses Truth interpreted in many different ways.  SOM appeals to those who wish to understand the underlying Law which governs the Universe and use it in their daily lives. 

This philosophy supports the understanding that God is Love.  We “Practice the Presence of God” through prayer and meditation, staying open to personal spiritual experiences.  We believe we are spiritual beings having a human experience rather than human beings having a spiritual experience.

Science of Mind is about opening hearts and transforming lives, one gentle step at a time.
