Rising of the Christ Consciousness – Part 2 – Being the Light
10:50 AM — Prelude Music with the “Friends” Band
11:00 AM — Celebration Service
Talk Title: “Rising of the Christ Consciousness – Part 2 – Being the Light”
Speaker: Rev. Bridget McCann
As we approach Christmas, we look at Christ Consciousness. Attaining Christ Consciousness was not an accomplishment exclusive to Jesus of Nazareth; he was an example, not the exception. There is more “light” in the world now than at any time in human history. We contribute to it by letting our Christ Consciousness rise and being the Light of Harmony, Love, and Peace.
