Expectancy
Ernest Holmes

We should daily affirm that new ideas are coming to us, new ways of doing things; that we are meeting new and wonderful friends, new situations; that joyous things are going to happen to us. The Creative Principle is always reacting to us as we act in It. It is always creating in our bodies and our affairs. Consequently, we should all learn to live in a state of joyous and enthusiastic expectancy. This is the principle upon which faith and the answer to prayer are based.

Let us, then, bless everything we do and everyone we meet, knowing that the limitations of the past need not be carried into the future. Nothing is too good to be true.  Nothing is too much to ask of the Power that can do anything.

There is something within each one of us which is conscious of our unity with Good, with all the Power there is. Upon this Power, Presence, and light we must depend with complete confidence. Thus faith passes into experience with scientific certainty. Faith is the most dynamic phenomenon known.

An Invitation to Make a Difference!
News from Global Services
Rev. Chris Plym, Event Coordinator

This year, Global Services is partnering with Outreach, Inc. to feed hungry children in Tanzania, Africa. We are thrilled to be working with Outreach, Inc. because they believe, as we do, in empowering individuals to become self-sufficient. And, it doesn’t take much to make a difference.

The shocking story is that 40,000 children die every day from malnutrition, starvation, and hunger-related diseases—that is one child every 5 seconds! We know that this planet has enough resources to feed and nourish everyone living on it, everywhere, all the time. So why do people go hungry and children die from malnutrition at the rate of 5 million lives per year? The answer is simple…distribution. Global Services is now raising funds and preparing food packets. Outreach, Inc. then manages the process of transporting and distributing the food overseas. Both organizations are in partnership to make a difference!

Outreach, Inc. has been awarded a four-star rating by Charity Navigator. Rev. Karen Wolfson, Centers for Spiritual Living, Sarasota, Florida, shares her center’s success with this project:  “We’ve done this special service in the past and it’s been a real eye-opener to see how far-reaching our organization is, and to see the joy expressed by people around the world as they learn and live the empowering.”
