We had a fabulous time dressing up and enjoying holiday tea with old and new friends! Tables were filled with a lovely spread of savory and sweet treats. We also enjoyed delicious wassail and a curated selection of teas.

Lilia Shoshanna Rae opened the tea with a lovely centering meditation so we could each be fully present. Richard Bredeson shared a selection of poetry to inspire and uplift. We especially enjoyed getting to know each other on a deeper level with the discussion prompts at each table.

The finale to the festivities was an awarding of prizes for the best tea party outfits. It was fun honoring the creativity and the holiday spirit.

Truly a wonderful, delightful event! ACT has the best members and guests.

The October program was extraordinary! The heavens opened and we connected with beautiful, peaceful, healing energy for ourselves and for the planet.

Michele started us off with gentle chair yoga to align our energy bodies, get grounded and centered.

Linda and Debbie led the group in a powerful, deep meditation for peace. We each picked someone or someplace that we wanted to send Peace to. We wrapped up the meditation sending Love and Peace around the world.

There was a beautiful spirit of compassion and peace in the room and in our hearts. Very special!

We kicked off the 2024/25 program year with an extra special program led by Elohi Magdalena Rosa and Pamela Jane Gerrand. It was everything they said it would be and more. The time was magical, mystical, and transformative.

There were many beautiful elements to the program, “A Radiant Rose Awakens”. Here are a few highlights:

• A touching poem by Pamela called “Come Closer”. Love says come closer, I’ve got you.
• Elohi shared some of the history of Mary Magdalene, the discovery of her gospel, and one of her profound messages, that our voice is a gateway from our heart to other’s hearts.
• Elohi and Pam led a deep and transforming transmission with sound, voice, music, and light language to upgrade our heart opening so that it’s deeper, wider, and holds a higher frequency; to reunite us with higher aspects of ourselves; and to restore each of us to our divine blueprint.
• Pam closed with program with a special song that she wrote just for us, “Land of the Mary’s”. We are in Maryland and in the land of the Mary energy. It was extra special and very moving.

We left feeling blessed, expansive, and radiant from the energy transmissions. We learned, we were loved, and we were transformed. Amazing and Beautiful!

We had a fascinating afternoon learning about the Enneagram, also known as the Enneagram of Personality, which is a model of the human psyche principally understood and taught as nine interconnected personality types.  Gerise Pappas (www.gerisepappas.com) walked us through the different Enneagram components and shared how we can learn, heal, and return to wholeness using the Enneagram model as a tool to better understand ourselves. 

We especially learned about how each of the nine different points on the Enneagram has a growth path that, when applied, can enable us to notice where we are and what we are experiencing in order to become more present, in balance, and connected to self. 

We also thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful guitar music of Richard Rausch, who has toured with Carl Anderson (of Jesus Christ Superstar fame). Richard also led and played with several opening act bands for renowned artists such as Paco De Lucia, Al Green, and Spirit. 

If you are an ACT member, consider listening to the Zoom replay. The Enneagram material is fascinating! You can really feel Gerise’s passion for the Enneagram and how the study of the Enneagram can support a return to wholeness especially during and after experiencing challenges in our lives.

What a profound and special program! Elohi Magdelena Rosa led us in a deep meditation into the most private and sacred throne room of our hearts. If you have ever had a moment when you felt the Divine, when you felt completely loved, completely known for the beautiful person that you are, that would be a taste of what we experienced.

The meditation helped us remember the part of us that is Source. That we are an aspect of the great I AM. Elohi also guided us to the possibility of connecting to higher dimensions and higher realms for messages and gifts that were specific to each of us individually. It was an emotional day for many of us!

Laura Kucine and Hardnett7 led the music and lifted the vibrational energy with a collection of love songs. Below is a brief video clip where you can see how our hearts opened with the closing song, “What a Wonderful World.”

If you are an ACT member and were unable to attend, I encourage you to watch or listen to the recording. Indeed, you will be blessed.

What a fun experience sitting with fellow men and women of the Light and learning how we can enhance our voice and song to express more of our authentic self.

Sahffi Lynne, an intuitive and spiritual voice coach, explained how our voice is an instrument and just like any instrument, there are steps we can take to learn how to play the instrument with ease, beauty, and a connection to our soul. Each step of this vocal ladder that she introduced, is connected to one of the seven chakras.

Sahffi guided us with simple “exercises” that we can do for each rung of the vocal ladder to connect our voice, our chakras, and our soul. A fun example is, as a group we sang “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star” before the vocal ladder exercises. We sounded okay.

After learning and practicing all the different exercises, we sang “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star” again and we sounded FABULOUS! The change was dramatic and remarkable. You could hear the different harmonies coming through and the total sound had a richness and fullness to it. Amazing!

We wrapped up the day singing “Angels of Healing” by Lisa Thiel and “Imagine” by John Lennon. It was lovingly magical.

If you are a member and were not able to attend, please consider listening to the replay and, for sure, doing the exercises as Sahffi presents them. It’s well worth your time. You will be awed at the experience!!

What an amazing holiday party! As Lilia says, “ACT people know how to celebrate, connect, and commune.” So true! Food was abundant and delicious. So wonderful to meet new people and catch-up with old friends.

We had great conversations at the dinner and dessert tables.  A selection of questions were provided for inspiration of something you might want to share about yourself with your tablemates. We learned interesting things about each other and deepened friendships.

A special highlight of the evening was the voice of Amy Frondoso, beckoning us to the dance floor. As we get up to dance to the song, “We are Family”, Amy made a dramatic entrance inspiring us even more to join the dancing. Amy kept the dance party going with a great mix of dance favorites and great tunes. It was a lot of fun.

What a great way to celebrate the holiday season with other spiritually, like-minded folks. What a blessing and a joy.

What a special evening we shared listening to the wisdom of Neale Donald Walsch, author of “Conversations with God”.  Even though he broadcast from his Oregon studio, it felt like he was in the room with us.

He shared his belief that humanity is one decision away from peace. That decision happens when we answer the question, “Who am I?” and the answer is not what you would expect.

For the quick answer, to “Who am I?” Neale put forth the response: “I am an individuation of God” (or Pure Love). When we understand that we are spiritual beings manifesting as Pure Love, it changes how we live.

During the talk, Neale introduced the concept of people being “idea heroes” and he answered the question that his talk was titled, “What is causing the greatest problem in the world?” Then, he proceeded to answer that question.  (Again, the answer is not what you would expect.)

Our special evening included music offered by The One Love Band. The band brought together musicians from six different musical acts into a unified expression of love through their music. Members playing that evening were: Hardnett7 on vocals and 7 string guitar, Chad Holmes on djembe and drum, Dennis Kolb on bass and harmonies, Laura Kucine on vocals and percussion, and Gary Hardnett on vocals, wind instruments, bowls, and gong.

We had a wonderful time, Sunday, October 15, 2023, listening to Kathleen Hanagan share how we can connect to our sovereignty and manifest boldly with the creation energy.

She led us through an activity where we each picked either a scarf or an object that represented an important dream that each of us held in our heart. With the item, she led us in a meditation giving life to our dream and seeing it come to fruition. The work felt both powerful and encouraging.

The photo shows many of the attendees, post-meeting, with the scarf or item that represented their dream.
