Sundays, January 11 and 18
We welcome back Rev. Ric. Schumacher white Rev. Richard and Matthew are on vacation.
In a two-part series titled, The Everyday Mystic; from Darkness to Light, Rev Schumacher explores the truth about every one of us. Ministers and spiritual leaders have often presented mysticism as something mysterious or mystifying when in fact the mystical experience is available to everyone at any time and in any place. The mystical life is experienced everyday by those open to it. There is a single key that opens the door to the mystical life.
Join us on Sundays, January 11 and 18 to receive the key and practices to become an everyday mystic
Rev. Schumacher is an ordained Unity minister and a nationally recognized speaker, trainer, and writer. He is an adjunct professor at Youngstown State University in Youngstown, Ohio. An avocational archaeologist, He has been to the Holy Land, where he participated in an archeological dig known as the Megiddo Expedition.
