Mind/Body Healing Class - Fall 2011
“I am so glad I took the eight session class:
Mind/Body Healing. I feel much more confident in my Treatments, and
my understanding of the Mind/Body relationship. Rev. Nancy and my
classmates were phenomenal!”
“The class material was excellent, and all of the
participants were magnificent!”
“The Mind-Body class really drove home the point
that what I focus on manifests, therefore there is GREAT benefit in
training my mind through consistent daily spiritual practices to
focus on Good - only Good. Thank you!!”
“I now know that treatment really works—I didn’t
really believe it before!”
“The class got me started journaling, and I plan
to continue. It’s powerful!”
“I also loved getting to know my classmates!”
“Thank you all for a great class! I am still
smiling!”

Exploring the Roots of Science of Mind -
Fall 2010
The fall Exploring the Roots of Science of Mind
Class, facilitated by Rev. Joanne, ended last week with a fantastic
student projects sharing and celebration. We salute Rev. Joanne and
the class!
The writings of three people who strongly
influenced Ernest Holmes’ thinking were studied: Ralph Waldo
Emerson, Emma Curtis Hopkins and Thomas Troward.
Comments made by the Students:
“This class deepened my understanding of
fundamental spiritual principles. It was very valuable.”
“The class pushed me into the consciousness of my
own faith. I will always be blessed for it.”
“Every time I take a Science of Mind class at Our
Spiritual Center, my life expands, heart opens more and I deepen my
spirituality and faith in Life!”
Practical Mysticism - 2010
The Practical Mysticism class took place between
March 4 and May 6, 2010. Joanne Biewald facilitated the class with the help from assistant,
Carla McKim. There were ten enthusiastic students. It was an enriching class with a good
workbook.
The texts used were: Carolyn Myss’ Entering the Castle: Finding the Inner Path to
God and Your Souls Purpose and Joel Goldsmith’s The Foundations of Mysticism.
We explored
our individual mysticism by getting in touch with the mystic which indwells each of us.
One highlight of the class was when each student gave a report on a mystic or mystical group.
The reports introduced subjects from Toaism and I Ching to Reverend Ike!
Here are a couple
comments from students:
“Well, it was great fun and now I know we have a lot of practicing to do.
Looking forward to the next class. Joanne is a great teacher and has very few dropouts.
I am aware that the general public is not quite aware of this, so nice to have our group to
discuss things freely and openly. A great support group.” Dee Ray
“Another interesting OSC Class.
Joanne puts a lot of thought and care into her classes.”
