Celebrating all Religious Traditions and Spiritual Paths
No matter what we call the Divine Source, it is the highest form of love, peace and wisdom being infinite and by nature incomprehensible. The universe reflects the Divine Presence – The All - through its many wonders, its myriad of forms and the great diversity we see in our many religious traditions and spiritual paths. We are interfaith in perspective, embracing the belief that the message of unconditional love has been shared with the world’s different cultures and peoples throughout the ages resulting in our many religious traditions. Embracing this diversity of expression allows us all to be enriched and to gain a greater understanding of the Divine in the world around us and within us. We express this with the phrase, “The Paths are Many, the Truth is One, Love Thy Neighbour.”
We believe that we are Spirit and that as such we possess natural gifts of intuitive and psychic vision which are the birthright of every human soul. We reject fear and believe that hatred and intolerance have no place within spiritual and religious practice. We recognize the power of thought to shape the world that we live in and celebrate the purposefulness of free will as we create our own life experiences and learn from our joys and challenges. As we understand more about spirituality and the nature of being human, we understand more about our personal responsibility in affecting the universe through our thoughts. Spirituality is about our relationship to the God Source and our personal choices, all of which affect us and the world in which we live.
