For the past several months the Jamilian University staff has been working with local marketing and design agency Rhinohub to produce an integrated image of the International Community of Christ Church, Cosolargy practice, Project X exploration and research, and Jamilian University educational and training programs for the world wide web accessible to anyone in the world with an internet connection.

In May 2019 the new web site was up and running. The site still needs some tweaking, but it represents the first stage of Cosolargy’s web presence. The next stage of future development will further enhance the site’s blog and discussion of solar techniques.

Further in the future, the site will have pages on all its manifold projects and principles as well as a members section with access to educational materials and the online newsletter Community Communique. We’ll be sending you more messages about the web site, what it does, and how we use it in upcoming weeks.

Gary Buchanan presents at Globe Sound Healing Conference in 2018

Follow this link to pages on the intention, presenters, exhibits, and workshops held at the 7th International Globe Sound Healing Conference: https://soundhealingcenter.com/conference/

Reverend Canon Gary Buchanan presented on Sunday, October 7th at the 7th International Globe Sound Healing Conference held October 6 – 8, 2018 at Temple Congregation Sherith in San Francisco. Reverend Buchanan presented primarily on Sonatherapy, but spoke a bit on Cosolargy and the Steamboat Healing Center and Spa as well.

Gary demonstrates the applicators with various sound frequencies on a member of the audience. About 50 people were in attendance.

There are two primary intentions of the sound healing conferences sponsored by the Globe Sound and Consciousness Institute:
(1) to raise consciousness and bring people into higher states of awareness more consistently by disseminating techniques and information and with experiential exercises to actually go into these states.
(2) to bring sound healing into mainstream homes and hospitals and gain more acceptance by helping the public to understand the science and effectiveness behind sound healing and by providing a venue for sound practitioners, the public and the medical community to meet and form connections and alliances.

The 7th International Globe Sound Healing Conference was held October 6 – 8, 2018 at Temple Congregation Sherith in San Francisco, one of the oldest Jewish synagogues in California. The Jewish congregation that built the synagogue was formed in 1850. The building was erected in 1904/05 and survived the great San Francisco earthquake and fire of 1906.

This year’s conference was held in Spectacular Temple Congregation Sherith – 2266 California Street, San Francisco

A lot of people are not aware of know this, but every edition of the Community Communique in our possession from 1971 to the present is archived online. Where? Right here at communitycommunique.net.

If you go into the “From the Archives” category under “SPECIAL REPORTS” and click on the last page in the archives, you will be taken to the earliest dated post in our online archive: October 1971. There you will find a facsimile copy of the “Cosolargy Report” from that month, which you can read online or download and print. From there, through a series of links, you will be led through every edition of the communiques we have all the way up to 2009.

The “Community Communique” has been published in several different forms over the years. And some years, not at all. Here is a quick rundown:

From 1971 through 1992, you will find PDF facsimiles of all the print editions we have in our archive.

From 1971 to April 1972, the communiques were one-page monthly reports.

After that, four-page news reports were published under various names until 1974, when the name “Community Communique” appeared for the first time. This has been the title of our Community newsletter since that time.

But the form of the Community Communique has changed over the years. The newsletter was first published as a four- page newsletter from 1974 through Spring 1982.

Then in Fall 1982, the publication expanded. More pages were added as time went on. Along with that came more pictures and longer, more detailed articles. The print edition went on in this format for ten years, from 1982 through 1992.

From Spring 1993 through Winter 1994, the Communique was not printed in any format. We have tried to make up for that in our online edition by providing electronic remakes of articles for those years that never appeared in print. You will find them in the archives marked with a photo of Bishop Gene Savoy Sr in vestments and with this notice:

NOTICE: The Winter 1992 edition was the last Community Communique published until the Spring 1995 edition. From Spring 1993 through Winter 1995, the quarterly publication of The Community Communique was on hiatus, picking up again with the Spring 1995 issue. For this reason, you will not find archive copies of the print Community Communique from Spring 1993 through Winter 1994. However, we are providing coverage of Community events for this season in the collection of articles you will find below.

In 1995 the print edition of the Communique was again published for about another year, until Summer 1996.

The Summer 1996 edition was the last Community Communiqué published until the Winter 2007 edition. For this reason, you will not find archived copies of the Community Communiqué from Fall 1996 through Fall 2007. For these years you will find major events from each season of those years described briefly in a short post.

The Communique appeared in a print edition again from Winter 2007 to Winter 2008, and this time with color photographs.

Since 2009 the Community Communique has been published as an online weekly newsletter. In its present form, we publish five or six posts weekly for an annual total of about 200-300 posts per year. To date nearly 2000 articles of various kinds and lengths are posted online. Every one of them is accompanied by photos, and a number of them are photo galleries. We have also published longer articles in serial form from week to week. These you will find in the Insight and Perspective sections. And we welcome submissions from Community members.

However, we do have one problem with our archive of past editions of the Communique: We do not have every single edition in our possession. This is where some of our long-time Community members, particularly those who have been members since the early 1970s, can help to fill the gaps. Our archive is missing a number of editions from 1971-1975. If you are a long-time Cosolargist, check your collection and if you find an edition we do not have please send us a copy of what we are missing.
