OUR SERVICES

 

 

One of The Centre's key areas is worship and devotion, which we express in a number of different ways and are briefly outlined. 

 

For further information on the times and places of services please contact your nearest Centre: LOCATION GUIDE.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Cosmic Mass:

 

Everyone is welcome to participate in this celebration and receive the sacred elements of bread and wine which nurtures the Christ spirit within us.

 

 

Full Moon Festival:

 

The energies of the Full Moon are working to renew and transform us. It is a special opportunity to receive a message of upliftment, encouragement and direction.

 

 

Spiritual Healing Service:

 

This is a powerful and meditative service in which the sacrament of healing is available.

 

 

Prayer Group and Prayer Network:

 

A time of prayer, meditation and devotion; or you may wish to receive a list of people to include in your prayers and private devotions.

 

 

The following services are available for members and non-members alike. The Centre does not have restrictions on who may participate in these services or sacraments.

 

 

Baptism:

 

This service recognises, welcomes and blesses the soul of the newborn infant, declaring it to be a free entity with all the rights of a human being. It strengthens the soul and bestows a name as an indication of its unique purpose.

 

 

Weddings and Covenants:

 

Those who wish a sacramental marriage consciously recognise that they are spiritual beings, that there is a spiritual dimension to their relationship and that the decision to marry was prompted from above. The Centre's wedding and covenant services acknowledge the freedom of each individual and the gifts they bring to the union. The Covenant of Love is available for couples (including same sex relationships) who, for various reasons, are unable to legally marry.

 

 

Funerals:

 

In a funeral service, the gratitude of the mourners for the life and soul of the one just departed and their prayers for a safe transition to a new life in the spiritual worlds are felt by the soul.
