"This is a course in miracles. It is a required course. Only the
time you take it is voluntary. Free will does not mean that you can establish the curriculum. It means only that you can elect what you want to take at a given time. The course does not aim
at teaching the meaning of love, for that is beyond what can be taught. It does aim, however, at removing
the blocks to the awareness of love's presence, which is your natural inheritance.
The opposite of love is fear, but what is all-encompassing can have no opposite.
This course can therefore be summed up very simply in this way:
Nothing real
can be threatened.
Nothing unreal exists.
Herein lies the
peace of God."
- Excerpt from the Introduction of A Course in Miracles.
Everyone is welcome to meet in Rm# 300 in The

followed by an individual blessing for each person. Additional
Blessing-givers attend some sessions, so ending times are flexible, as
multiple Blessings may occur. Given on a donation (love offering) basis.
