Guest Speaker

Rev. Ruth Kirby

Rev. Ruth will share, “Not This Again”, a talk about the spiritual path to getting unstuck.

February 2nd is Groundhog Day where a small rodent is asked to predict whether we will have a long winter or an early spring depending on whether he sees his shadow or not.

It is also the time of Imbolc which is celebrated this year on February 1st. It is the exact midpoint between the Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox. It is associated with practices of clearing away the old and making space for new beginnings and kindling hope for brighter days ahead.

Are you feeling like you could use some inspiration for the days ahead? Are you feeling like you are in some kind of repeat loop with no end in sight?

Join me for a revisit of the timeless spiritual wisdom in the movie Groundhog Day and a closer look at how we get unstuck.

About Rev. Ruth

Rev Ruth has been a Centers for Spiritual Living Practitioner for 27 years and a Centers for Spiritual Living Minister for 19 years. She founded a CSL Center and a Teaching Chapter and served as Spiritual Director of both.She is currently a Centers for Spiritual Living educator teaching spiritual development classes online with people from all over the world in attendance. She is also an ICF Certified Life Coach offering individual personal and spiritual coaching to help people deepen and thrive in their lives.In her personal life, she belongs to a performing improv troupe called Improv Alchemy which performs regularly here in Ashland.

Dr. Jean Houston

Jean Houston is our very special guest this Sunday!

Rev. Kathy Zavada is looking forward to interviewing Jean Houston for the message portion of our service!

“I’ve been contemplating all week what I would like to ask her and feel I have some very interesting, evocative and inspiring questions that should make for a fascinating and enlightening conversation!,” shares Rev. Kathy. “I have never interviewed someone during a service, so it’s a wonderful stretch for me too!”

Workshop with Jean Houston

Jean Houston will then be offering a 3-hour workshop after the service from 1:30 pm to 4:30pm. You may want to just bring a bag lunch and enjoy fellowship with our community so you don’t have to leave the Havurah. Jean is going to offer some extraordinary experiential practices to help us tap into our own creativity, possibility and genius.“I must say every time I talk to Jean even briefly, I feel like the seeds of possibility for my own life and its expression are watered,” Rev. Kathy shares. “It seems to me that Jean’s ‘factory setting’ is set on a perennial openness and awareness of the inherent possibility in every human. That twinkle in her eye, seems to be because she knows we have profound untapped capacities and she is going to spend every moment of her extraordinary life encouraging that capacity into full expression!”

Music!

“I am also delighted to present a few songs on Sunday with some four-part harmony joined by the wonderful singers Katharine Lang, Joanna DeSa, and Kristi Heatherstone joining me,” Rev. Kathy says. “We’ve got some joy songs and wonderful musical messages about love and gratitude!”
