Prayerful Singing Evenings

Leo and Stella Sofer offer prayerful singing evenings at Hawkwood College, Stroud, on the fourth Tuesday of each month, from 7.30 – 9.30pm.

Leo and Stella began leading singing events at the Findorn Community in 2002. Since then they have led hundreds of singing events, with groups of many different sizes, from a dozen to several hundred!

The singing evenings will include songs from Taize, a monastic Christian community in France, whose simple four-part songs are easy to learn and are sung over and over in a prayerful, heartfelt way. Leo and Stella also love the Harmonic Temple songs of Nickomo Clarke, and also songs from the Gospel tradition. The evening will feature a mix of these and other sources, and promises to be a chance to slow down, find your centre and sing in a nourishing and uplifting way, in the beautiful surroundings of Hawkwood College.

Please arrive at 7.15pm for a prompt 7.30pm start, a contribution of £5 to £7 (sliding scale) is requested.

EXPANDING OUR PLANETARY AWARENESS      Evening talk with William Meader

 Friday 18 May 2012  8.00  –  9.30 pm

A planet is far more than it seems.  Instead of simply being an orbiting mass of inert matter, each of the known planets is the dense manifestation of a Cosmic Life.  Esoterically understood, every planetary body is a living being that radiates its life force throughout the circumference of the solar system, and each has an evolutionary effect upon humanity.  In this talk, we will closely examine the nature of these planetary entities, and how they each contribute to the unfoldment of human consciousness, individually and collectively considered.

 Cost £7 or £5 concessions, in advance or on the door

THE MAYAN PROPCHECY:  An Esoteric Perspective

 Evening talk with William Meader

Friday 16 November 2012  8.00  –  9.30 pm

 Around the world, much is being said about the Mayan Calendar and its culmination on 21 December 2012.  There are many who believe that it is a dire indicator predicting the collapse of civilisation as we know it. Yet, for others, it represents a great transition into a new and dawning age. In this talk, William Meader will present the esoteric view on this remark moment in human history. Discussed from an astronomical, societal and spiritual perspective, he will show how the ending of the Mayan Calendar profoundly correlates to the Burning-Ground period that leads to a great initiatory opportunity for Humanity. 

 Cost £7 or £5 concessions, in advance or on the door
