Holy Spirit Night – What it is

Over the past few months, what has emerged at Holy Spirit Night is a pithy summary of where we have been and who we have become over the last few years. I want you to have a chance to read it.
We are still meeting on Wednesday nights here at my house in West Newton.  We have not been sending weekly announcements.  All are welcome. You are welcome.
7:15pm meet and greet and tea
7:30pm begin sacred space
by 9:30pm we head home

 

Holy Spirit Night             

Essential shared total       Creative living spark       Ask for help      Gathering

There is Spirit. Spirit is alive, here, now, shared. Spirit is home.

To live it, we start with wholeness. Wholeness is alive, here, now, shared. Wholeness is home.

To live it, we start with earth. Earth is alive, here, now, shared. Earth is home.

To live it, we start with our real lives. Our real life is alive, here, now, shared. Our real life is home.

Our real life is everywhere the home for spirit.

We explore our real life as access to spirit, to wholeness, to this living earth, and to our own deepest Self.  Now is the time… Here is the place… This life is the form… Let us create the event…

Holy Spirit night is a weekly 2-hour shared practice. We practice wholeness by asking to come face to face with where we all start – with self, with need, with will, with help, with earth, and with life itself.

We learn:

to ask for help

to ask for help that helps

to ask for all available help

to ask for help in how we do the asking

We explore health – our worlds of health:

Personal          Social           Civil              Global

Relational        Vital              Universal      Total

Physical           Emotional    Mental        Causal

Human            Nature          Planet          Beyond

We practice how to practice:

Dwell              Work               Ask              Agree

Gather            Breathe          Praise         Invoke

Cause              Create            Give           Grieve

Listen              Speak              Act             Belong

The holiness, wholeness, health, and home we are looking for have room to reclaim:

Self          Living self             Home of self                Our shared self

Need       Living need          Home of need              Our shared need

Will          Living will             Home of will                 Our shared will

Help        Living help            Home of help               Our shared help

Earth      Living earth           Home of earth             Our shared earth

Life         Living Life              Home of life                 Our shared life

Self need will help earth live!

We practice co-creative full communion of home.

Now…  Here…  This…  Home
