SUMMARY:The Importance of Daily Practice
DESCRIPTION:“The Importance of Daily Practice”\n– “The one thing that shall not be taken away from you.” (Luke 11) \nA talk by Carol Kelly \nMary sits at the Lord’s feet and listens to His words. Our listening heart\, our attentiveness is what is being called for now.\nWe live in a world filled with anxiety\, fear and greed. This is the atmosphere we breathe. But it need not become our reality. We have something much stronger and long-lasting than any material\, or any drug or distraction. It builds upon itself like a well-maintained garden\, musicality or any acquired skill. It creates the space for the Divine will in us. We are the vessels through which the Holy Spirit can work. We are realizing the spiritual world in this world\, day by day.

SUMMARY:Rev Kelly talk on Water: permeated with spirit
DESCRIPTION:Water: precious\, selfless and permeated with Spirit. \nThe world is made of Spirit. The REAL world IS just that. The one we live in\, the material world\, we can think of as a “special case of spirit.” Spirit moves with what moves\, forms what will be formed\, and makes itself manifest where there is “activity.” This applies also to our thinking.\nWhere and how does water appear in the Gospels? How can we receive its message?

SUMMARY:Easter Sunrise Observation & Lay Service
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, March 27\, 6:30 am.  Easter Sunrise Observance and Breakfast at the Frey’s.  The sun will rise at 7:09vam.  We need to be seated and waiting at 6:30 am as the sun begins to send its rays at least 30 minutes before it crests the horizon.  Dr. Rudolf Steiner gave us a beautiful Easter imagination for greeting the sun on Easter morning.  We should envision Lucifer coming to us in the early rays of the sun.  When the sun crests we can imagine the Christ coming to us behind Lucifer with outstretched arms.  When we hear the voices of songbirds being raised to the sun we should imagine that they reach the realm of the Cherubim\, for indeed they do.  We should allow our souls to rise with the songbird’s voice\, and imagine the Cherubim turning to acknowledge both the songbird and our listening souls.\nWe will have chairs and lap blankets.  You’re advised to dress warmly.  Please turn to the right after you park your car and follow the lights to our waiting spot. \nAfter the sunrise\, we will share a gospel reading\, song\, and shared contemplation before adjourning to a lovely breakfast provided by the Frey family. All are welcome.

SUMMARY:The Harrowing of Hell - talk by Edward Schuldt
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, March 26\, 7:00pm.  The Harrowing of Hell:\nChrist’s Descent into the Interior of the Earth and How We Can Go With Him   A talk by Edward Schuldt \nThe nine spheres of the interior of the Earth have been a topic of research for Edward Schuldt for many years now. They also play an important role in a novel Edward is writing. Edward compares the 9 spheres of the earth with the stages of Christian initiation as well as the Nine Beatitudes. This promises to be a fascinating exploration of a very esoteric mystery. \nA light supper of soup and salad will follow.   A limited number of participants may spend the night at Judy’s home in order to get up early for the Easter Sunrise (7:07 am). Please call Judy to see if there are any beds left:  919-928-8749 or simply arrive around 7 am or earlier..

SUMMARY:Good Friday - Stages of Christian Initiation
DESCRIPTION:Good Friday\, March 25\, 1:30 pm.  The Stages of Christian Initiation \nIn the past\, those who sought higher consciousness entered into Mystery Schools for training with a Priest-Hierophant who directed their every step. Today initiation occurs in everyday living without the help of an initiatory priest.  At the time of Christ\, it was impossible for one to have a full experience of Golgotha because mankind was still developing the Intellectual Soul. One had to wait until the development of the Consciousness Soul  to become mature enough to experience inwardly the Imaginations which begin to reveal the true reality of the Mystery of Golgotha. Christ Himself has become the Teacher for the Path of Christian Initiation. Meditating on the St. John Gospel will eventually lead to a Clairvoyant experience of the Mystery of Golgotha\, according to Rudolf Steiner. \nOn Good Friday we will explore the Path of these Stations of the Cross that are the basis for the stages of Christian Initiation. Referring to the lectures of Rudolf Steiner and the reflections of Kristina Kaine\, who has written a book “Reflections on the Seven Christian Initiations in the Gospel of St. John”\, we will explore how we can partake in this Mystery process with Christ.\nFollowing  a talk on this topic by Kathleen Wright\, participants will discuss their own understanding of the Mystery of Golgotha. They will then have the opportunity to meditate on the Stations of the Cross or walk the labyrinth on the beautiful grounds at Avila Retreat Center. Instructions for using the labyrinth will be handed out at Avila.\nMembers will gather in the parking lot at Avila at 1:30 PM sharp (please don’t be late) and we will walk to one of the outdoor gazebos for our talk. The grounds at Avila Retreat Center are open to the public; however a “good will donation” was suggested by them\, as our members may need to use the facilities indoors.  We will take up a collection. Avila was chosen because of its extraordinary spiritual energy. If you have never been there\, check out the website which has a video of the grounds.

SUMMARY:Holy Thursday - Talk by Lynn Jericho
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, March 24\, 2016  7 – 9 pm Community and Isolation: Exploring Our Personal Relationship to Social Mysteries of the Last Supper and Gethsemane \nAs Anthroposophists can we find our own inner experience of these two events in the life of Jesus Christ? Through conversation and creative exercises\, we will explore the dramatic polarities of community and isolation in our lives. We will consider devotion and betrayal as they support destiny. We may find our way to a deeper understanding of the divine and the human aspects of our own lives by imagining the thoughts\, feelings and intentions living in Jesus Christ during these extraordinary events. \nFacilitated by Lynn Jericho\n1250 Ephesus Church Road Apt L-23 Chapel Hill\nRSVP: lynnjericho@gmail.com or 919-636-0430

SUMMARY:"From Infinite Suffering to All-Prevailing Cosmic Love
DESCRIPTION:Christ Jesus made Himself into that which is to live in every single human being. Through Him there came into the world what can come about through freedom and peaceful cooperation.” (The Christian Mystery) \nAs Jesus walked on earth he witnessed the terrible wretchedness of human beings bereft of Spirit. He suffered enormously because of  what he must endure and bear. In His infinite compassion for human beings He brought forth the “Lord’s Prayer” and gave Himself to the earth and to all of humanity in communion with us. \nThe radiance of His Being and the magnitude of this deed are only now in our time\, beginning to be dimly understood. Let us walk further into this mystery. \nAfter this talk\, there will be a close of day service.

SUMMARY:Reappearance of the Christ Study Group
DESCRIPTION:A weekly study group that is open to all to read and contemplate this seminal text of Rudolf Steiner.  \nPlease contact Kathleen Wright (919-309-9622) to find out what Chapter is being read. \nSteiner boldly announces the central 20th century spiritual event: the true nature of the second coming of Christ is His appearance to human beings in the etheric world\, not His return in a physical body. The experience of Paul at Damascus will be repeated for more people. Humanity is challenged not to sleep through this event. Other related themes covered here are the etherization of the blood and the three realms of the dead.\n  \n

SUMMARY:Christianity in the age of Materialism
DESCRIPTION:We often think of materialism as “consumerism”\, producing and wanting ever more and more stuff. Yes\, that is one of the results of materialistic thinking\, but it goes much deeper than that. Materialism\, belief that this world is all there is\, and that things are as we perceive them\, is much more insidious. It is in each one of us\, in the air we breathe and the water we drink\, in our educational systems and even in our churches. How do we find our way through materialism to the spirit? Can we get there from here?\nJohn the Baptist has said\, “Change your heart and mind.” One small change within us can bring about amazing results! It is as if the Universe has been waiting so long that one step in the right direction is met with tremendous encouragement. We can change our vision and learn to see the world differently and transform materialism. Join us on this exciting journey of discovery.

SUMMARY:From the Beginning to the End of Time
DESCRIPTION:A talk by Rev Carol Kelly: Stories have been an integral and intimate part of human culture since the very beginning of time. The creation stories in every culture weave into our consciousness and form a foundation for our existence. The folk-tales\, fairy-tales\, wise tales and parables give us food for thought in a timeless way. A story can be told over and over and never lose its value. True life stories\, biographies\, stories of triumph and failure help us to understand ourselves\, broaden our human experience\, unite us in a universally human way. \nWe can find truth\, healing power and great wisdom in the stories from all generations\, even into the future. The invisible is woven into the fabric of every good story. True stories leave us free\, while serving to nurture\, protect and strengthen the very best in the human spirit. We can’t get enough of them! \nThis will be an evening of stories\, in which we will also try to discern between stories which are “true” in the highest sense\, and those which are false or distorted pictures of humanity. We can all be fed by a good story!

SUMMARY:Harvesting Seeds of Soul to Carry into the Future

In honor of this Michaelmas season in which we harvest what we have sown\, we will reflect on the life lessons that have matured in this past year and the labor that has brought them forth.  Which soul endeavors in your life have born fruit\, nurtured you and others and what are the seeds that will bear fruit into the future? Reflecting on the events that have shaped this past season\, we will strive through artistic process and conversation to discover the working of the spiritual world in our lives. What seeds of soul will You be able to bequeath to the future\, whether in this life or the next? \nSarah Putnam PhD. is a gifted and experienced workshop leader who is adept in using a subtle touch to guide her students and client’s to new insight and purpose. Her easy laughter and sensitivity to others make her workshops a safe place for personal discovery.

This workshop is for you and for all of us who want a deeper understanding of life’s meaning.

SUMMARY:Michaelmas Celebration
DESCRIPTION:Since ancient times\, Sept 29th was not dedicated to the Archangel Michael alone\, but to all the legions of mighty hierarchical beings who bring inspiration\, new life and courage to man. As Autumn begins\, the Sun forces recede and we must turn inward to find the strength to face the coming darkness. Archangel Michael is the Archangel of the Sun and Prince of all the 9 hierarchies. He stands before man as a threshold being who recalls to us the nearness of the heavenly worlds. Through him\, we may meet the Christ. For this reason\, he is regarded as the ‘Countenance of Christ’. He is also victor over the forces of the dragon who has been cast down upon earth in battles long ago where he now torments\, deceives and weakens man’s soul forces. Michael supports our striving to overcome adversity\, to rise out of our lower self and become citizens of the spiritual world once again. \nOur celebration this year will be a collaborative artistic event in which you are invited to share readings of poetry\, short prose or mantram that speak to the themes of spiritual courage\, self sacrifice\, inner awakening or the battle between light and darkness. If you have images of St George or Michael\, please bring them along. A group of lyrists will perform evocative pieces between the recitals including internationally acclaimed lyrist John Billing.  Samantha Embrey who lent us her iron gongs last year will be returning to shower us with deep\, resonant tones to awaken our senses.  And finally\, if you would like to bring some small snack to add to our refreshment table\, that will be much appreciated. \nWe hope that by having many people participate in bringing words that are significant to them\, we will have a diverse\, stimulating and creative experience as we awaken together in community.

SUMMARY:Readings for the Dead
DESCRIPTION:Reading for the Dead is one of the ways that we as a community can honor our beloved one’s who have crossed the threshold\, but also to deepen our understanding of the nature of the spiritual worlds. In so doing\, we aid the passage of those beyond the threshold who seek those on earth who can connect with them\, and with life between death and rebirth. We strive to build a relationship with each other in a mutual relationship of spiritual seeking and understanding. We delve into the mysteries of life and life after death in an effort to bring alive what lives in us about the workings of the spiritual world.\n\n\nIn doing so\, we attune ourselves to what surrounds us in all we do\, feel and think. Life is an experience of living and becoming aware of what/who lives in the surrounding spaces of existence\, from the forces of nature in all its aspects to our relationships with each other as human beings and our Dead. \nWe engage with wonder and we listen deeply to our surroundings and to each other. We also struggle together to understand what it means to be a human being living a journey from heaven to earth and back again as we do in our individual karmic pictures. We acknowledge that we are spiritual beings attempting to make a true relationship to ourselves\, each other and to the forces at work in the world and beyond. \nMany come to our study on a regular basis. Some come for a shorter time when they have experienced the death of a friend or relative to seek comfort and deeper understanding of the journey from life to death and back to life. All are welcome to come. We engage in a verse and lyre playing at the beginning and at the end of our gathering. We enjoy many moods and experiences depending on who comes. It is a remarkably healing and uplifting experience to study and share together in this capacity. \nFor information about what lecture we are reading on a given Thursday\, please contact Joanna Carey. We will meet every other Thursday throughout the year.

SUMMARY:Thresholds in Our Lives
DESCRIPTION:To contemplate the destinies of human beings with reverence and awe\, \nthat is something that our times demand of us.” Rudolf Steiner \nWhat doorways have opened for you? Where did they lead? How were you changed? \nThresholds are part of the vocabulary of Anthroposophy\, yet we pass through many during our pilgrimage on earth without noticing them\, celebrating them\, or honoring that which came and that which was left behind. What doorways have opened for you? Where did they lead? How were you changed? Who opened doors for you and helped you along the way? Have you found one door firmly closed\, only to discover you held the key to another? What threshold do you stand before today? \nIn this workshop\, we will explore the stories of our lives from the perspective of doorways. Using natural materials\, pastels\, writing and conversation\, we will seek to reveal the processes of destiny. We will work with biography as a way to seek the “I” not only in the impulses that come from within outwards\, but also in what has come into our lives from without. \nSarah Putnam\, Ph.D.\, received her doctorate in cultural psychology from the University of NC and is a Certified Biography Worker. She has extensive experience delivering in-depth coaching\, group facilitation and training for healthcare\, industry\, school systems and governmental agencies. A long-time student of anthroposophy\, Sarah greatly appreciates the richness and beauty of the inner life with her clients. \nRegistration required\, please contact:\nSarah Putnam – 336-972-8243 or Diana Haynes – 919-768-3969
