 Rev. Joan's weekly message is updated on Thursday or Friday of each week.

Beloved One,

Greetings and love!

This Sunday marks the second of the three weeks of guest ministers who have served our community in the past. Dr. Margaret Stortz, Minister Emeritus, is out guest minister this week and her topic is: "A Celebration of Inclusivity."

The Clarewood Singers, who was the choir here for 20 years, is the musical
inspiration for this Sunday. Our very own Larry Steelman is the muscian for
the day.

On August 8th, we will be blessed with Rev. Muata Rasuli, senior minister of
the San Francisco Center for Spiritual Living. Rev. Muata served as an
assistant minister here at our center.

I invite you to contemplate the following quote from the Science of Mind pp. 102-103. Ernest Holmes states: "The One Mind conceives all things. From Unity - which is the One back of all things, through the One Law, which is the Medium of all action — multiplicity is manifested, but the many never contradicts the Unity of the Whole."

I Love you and continually know the best for you.

Rev. Dr. Joan Steadman
Community Spiritual Leader
Oakland Center for Spiritual Living
