Today we explore how we could take greater control of our lives and live differently by moving the ‘c’ from reaction to the front of the word. What if we could become more aware of our power to create life, rather than simply react to it? How do we move more consciously from reaction to creation? Join us to learn more about this vital transition in our way of being.

The Curiosity of our Creation Stories

Services at 9:15 & 11:00It is in the nature of humans to be curious about the unknown and search for answers.

Today we will explore some of these myths and wonder at the curiosity and creativity that human beings have brought forward in their stories.

What If…?

Services at 9:15 & 11:00
What if money were used to Heal, Empower, Link and Provide (HELP) rather than control, acquire and divide? What if money were used to connect us rather than separate us? Today we explore renewed definitions of generosity and money, guided less by scarcity thinking and more by love and possibility. Don’t miss this opportunity to celebrate our community’s interconnectedness, our generosity and our vision for our future.
