Dear Courageous Leaders,

Join us next week on Wednesday, February 15, when we welcome back the "Wonder-twins" Danielle Groth and Rev. Victoria "Vicky" Lovell. We will focus on this verse from Matthew 22:37-39, "Jesus replied: 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself.'"

If you missed when they joined us on November 30, you can find that recording here: Grounded in Love.

BOOK GIVEAWAY: Thanks to a generous donor to the coaching ministry, we are able to give away two more copies of their book, Reiki and Faith: Supporting Reiki Through Holy Experiences and Scripture. We would like to open this up to everyone, even if you're not able to attend "live" on Wednesday. If you are interested in putting your name in the drawing, please reply to this email by Thursday, February 16.

We invite you to bring a spirit of curiosity to these gatherings and to all aspects of your life. What are you noticing? Where is Spirit moving? How are you being invited to participate?
