What We Believe...
Spiritualism is a religious and spiritual belief which blends ancient wisdom with
contemporary thought. References to Spiritualism have been found for centuries
in religious, literary, and historic writings. The understanding that life continues
after death and that communication is possible between the Spirit World and the
Earth World is the foundation of present day Spiritualism.
Spiritualists recognize God as the Universal Source, the Infinite Spirit. We
believe that each of us is an integral part of the God Power. Our philosophy teaches
that the path to spiritual growth and positive living comes from taking personal
responsibility for one’s own behavior. We do not believe that anyone can or needs
to atone for another’s trangressions.
Spiritualists do not embrace the concepts of the rewards of heaven and the punishment
of hell. We believe that, following “death”, all souls progress onward into the
Spirit World where teachings for spiritual advancement continue.
Mediumship...
Communicating with the spirit world is an integral part of Spiritualism. This communication is accomplished
through the instrumentality of a medium. A Medium is one who connects with the Spirit World
and relays information from the spirit to the individual receiving the reading. The Medium is an
intermediary between both worlds. Mediumship is a three-way communication process involving the
Medium, the spirit, and the individual receiving the reading. An open mind and an open heart is
required on the part of all three for communication. The spirit entities will provide the evidence that
their lives have continued after the transition we call death.
A Psychic works with the energy available on the earth plane. Specifically, a Psychic works with the
information stored in our personal energy field, also known as the aura. We store information
about our past and present, our spiritual, physical, and emotional joys and sorrows, achievements and
losses, desires and disappointments. A Psychic senses this information and interprets for us.
When a Medium or Psychic speaks of the future, they are predicting a possibility that certain things
could manifest based on the energy of the present.
It is not an exact science. Time and space do not influence the psychic or spiritual energies. These
energies always exist in the present moment. It is nearly impossible to reliably translate timelessness
and spacelessness into the time/space continuum in which our outer conscious mind operates. The
main reason that predicted events don't happen is the fact that we change our minds about them. We
attract or repel the energy to make changes in our lives depending on our desire to embrace or reject
change. It's a subtle process.
