Each week of the liturgical year, a reading from Second Advent Scripture is delivered as part of the Saturday Communion of Fellowship Service held in the Chapel of the Holy Child. This reading follows the Sacred Calendar of the Church; that is, Prophecies and Revelations that have been received by The Church on sacred dates are recalled in a liturgical context during the appropriate season each year. This reading is delivered by the Officiant of the Communion Service (that is, Bishop Gene Savoy, or occasionally in his stead, Bishop Sean Savoy) just before the final blessings. Each service also includes a reading from the ancient scriptures, prayers, or wisdom sayings of various world religions past and present and is usually thematically related to the Second Advent Reading. This reading is delivered by the Reader right after the announcements that begin the service and is thus the first reading of the service. An audio recording of the reading from Second Advent Scripture delivered on the date above is provided here below together with a transcript of the first reading of the service that day.

SECOND ADVENT PROPHECY AND REVELATION

ANCIENT SCRIPTURE AND WISDOM SAYINGS
A Reading from the Gospel of John, Chapter 1:

In the beginning was the Word
and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God.
He was in the beginning with God.
Through Him everything came to be.
What came to be in Him was life
and life was the light of all people
and the light in the darkness shone
and the darkness could not apprehend the light.

There was a man sent from God.
His name was John.
He came as a witness in testimony of the light
so that all might believe through him.
He was not the light,
but he came to testify about the light.
The light was the true light,
which illuminates every person
who comes into the world.
He was in the world
and through him the world was born,
and the world did not know him.
He went to his own
and his own did not receive him.

To all who received him
he gave power to become the Children of God,
to those who believed in his name,
who were born hot from blood
or from the will of the flesh
of from the will of a man,
but were born of God.

If the intellect has not risen above the contemplation of the created world, it has not yet beheld the realm of God perfectly. For it may be occupied with the knowledge of intelligible things and thus involved in their multiplicity. … He who prays in spirit and in truth is no longer dependent on created things when honoring the Creator, but praises Him for and in Himself. … When your intellect, in its great longing for God, gradually withdraws from the flesh and turns away from all thoughts that have their source in your sense  perceptions, memory, or soul-body temperament, and when it becomes full of reverence and joy, then you may conclude that you are close to the frontiers of prayer. ~The Philokalia

“We all know the old joke where someone tells you to close your eyes and think of anything but an elephant. What happens is that an image of an elephant immediately pops into your mind (assuming you know what an elephant is). In a slightly more complex example, if you’re told to think of a peanut butter sandwich, but not to think of an elephant, your mind will form an image of a sandwich, then promptly replace it with an image of an elephant. A few people might see some combination like an elephant eating a peanut butter sandwich, but most will completely replace the sandwich image with the elephant.”

“Have you been experiencing headaches lately more than usual? How about ringing in the ears, the inability to think straight and losing words mid-sentence? How about feeling overly exhausted, nauseous, indigestion, a smaller or larger appetite, or higher than normal anxiety? These are all apparently possible symptoms of a shift taking place in your consciousness triggered by solar flares and other galactic activity.”

As you evolve, the heart literally becomes your new brain center. The Institute of HeartMath has found that the heart’s electromagnetic field may play an important role in communicating physiological, psychological, and social information between people. Its experiments found that one person’s brain waves can synchronize to another person’s heartbeat. Researchers inferred that our nervous system acts as an antenna that responds to the electromagnetic fields produced by the hearts of others. Interestingly, they also found data that point to the fact that the heart’s electromagnetic field is involved in intuitive perception, that both the heart and brain receive and respond to information about a future event before the event actually happens. The heart appears to receive the intuitive information before the brain does. ~Penney Peirce

“Most scientists and medical people would probably consider this nonsense—as crazy as the ancients who equated emotions with the heart. But what they don’t seem to understand is that it is not the physical organ pumping blood that is referred to here and in similar writings but the spiritual energy center that happens to be located in the same area. It is that spiritual organ that is linked to intuition. It is that spiritual organ that responds to some events before they actually happen.”

“Most people feel that a time of great change is upon us. But what kind of change is unfolding, exactly? To answer that question, we must examine current trends and attempt to understand where they are headed. Here’s my look at ten of the most sociologically-charged trends that I believe are leading us into a spiritual crisis (followed by a spiritual awakening, as you’ll see below).”

Marie Elizabeth Newman (nee McLeod), May 13, 1927 – July 2, 2013, with her husband Patrick, was a Consociate of the Second Advent Community for many years until her passing.

Marie was born to William J. McLeod and his wife, Elizabeth Greig, in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan. She is survived by her husband, Patrick, who resides near family members in Lacombe, Alberta. Marie’s childhood and early schooling were in Moosomin, Saskatchewan, before her family moved to Edmonton in 1940. She graduated from Strathcona High School and earned a teaching certificate from the University of Alberta. From there Marie began a career as a teacher in a log school at Crooked Creek, in northern Alberta, and afterward moved south to take a position in Lacombe, Alberta. It was here in 1951 that she met Patrick Newman, and in 1953 they were married in Edmonton. To Marie’s regret, the couple had no children, but she transferred her maternal instincts to her students and became a dedicated teacher.

Marie and Patrick traveled extensively. After four years of traveling to places such as Sept Isles, Quebec; Manchester, England; and Tehran, Iran, they returned to Edmonton where Marie completed her bachelor of education degree. Later, they lived for extended periods in Montreal and Toronto, Canada; Reno, Nevada; Lima, Peru; and finally back in Alberta in Rosedale Valley. In each of these locations, Marie found herself either teaching or working as a medical secretary. Her experience ranged from the log schoolhouse to an urban charm school. At various times she was a valued member of the staff of Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish schools where her skills as an English teacher were greatly valued. As a medical secretary she was particularly helpful to medical professionals whose first language was not English but who had valuable research to publish. Aside from English, Marie had an interest in other languages, and could, to some degree, speak Spanish, French, and Farsi. Her further interests included drama, both as a performer and a director (most recently as a member of the Vintage Players in Reno) and a love of people, parties, and Scottish Country Dancing.

She will be sorely missed, especially her smile, but we are happy that she has been released into Light.
