Presidents Message and Newsletters

We have faced many changes and challenges this year; it doesn’t matter the size or depth, we made it through with tenacity and the realization that we never go it alone. It takes a community, your community.

This year, we welcome three new board members to The Spiritualist Church of Canada community: Rev. Sarah Wilkes, Rev. Catherine Mayer and Rev. Lily Ilescas. Together they bring a plethora of knowledge, work ethic and spiritual teaching; we look forward to the shared insights over the coming year.

Looking forward to the holiday season, in the hopes that the world will take this moment in time to breathe deeply and put their ‘differences’ aside, and start a new year in the spirit of community and peacefulness guided some of us through the rougher moments.

The Winter Solstice marks that time of year for many of us to ruminate on another year over and a new one soon to begin. Reflecting on words and deeds, thoughts and actions, asking ourselves: Did I do right more than wrong this year? Was I kind, compassionate, forgiving enough to our most vulnerable in society, to our loved ones, to ourselves? 

Remember, there is no abacus tallying positive or negative; there is only knowledge of self and the golden rule. What we do, say and think creates a world we are striving to be as lovingly and spiritually open as possible.

We can lament what is lost and at the same time become immensely grateful for what is found. Give yourself the chance to spread your spiritual wings and welcome the changes that you see in yourselves.

Take some time, reflect upon how the Winter Solstice allows a time for change behind the scenes and seek every opportunity to give and receive love. Enjoy every step of your journey!

Peace & Love
Rev. Stevie
