Angels: The Communicators of Love
With Angel Reader Laura Lyn Wissler

Laura Lyn Wissler has been communicating with the angels since the young age of five years old. She was called to light-work in her thirties to help people connect to their own angels and spirit guides. She finds it very rewarding to help facilitate people's connections with these powerful Beings of Light who love us unconditionally. Laura sees Angels and senses their vibration through colors and music frequencies.

During her OMS presentation Laura will share how to better understand angelic energies and read the signs that the angels are around you. You will leave with a new understanding on how angels and guides can help you on your life path. An enriched soul-source connection with these higher beings is important in helping us unfold our divine paths.

Laura is currently working full time as a light-worker. She was featured in the October 2007 Akron Life and Leisure magazine. Because of her psychic and medium gifts, she has worked on cold cases with the Akron Police Department and is the Lead Psychic Investigator for the paranormal team SIGHT (Spiritual Insight Ghost Hunting Team), based in North East Ohio (www.sightofohio.com).

Nature Spirits: The Lights In Your Garden
with Kim Colbert

Kim will offer her understanding of Nature, It's purpose and general organization. She will discuss how "The Lights in our Gardens” delight in dancing in the world around us to the music of Spring.

Some areas to be explored will include: What is our role in the Spring Adventure? What happens next? Things we might not have considered? How do we work with our friendly Nature Spirits? Where does one find Nature Research information?.

In all, how might we dance together to learn, embrace and co-create a world vibrant with Joy and Plenty as the New Earth is birthed into our reality?

Kim Colbert is a Licensed Social Worker, Licensed Massage Therapist and Ordained Minister working in the Akron area. Kim has always had a special connection to Nature and It's realms. The Nature Spirits befriended her at an early age as she played by the riverside but a stones throw from her Grandma's house. Her "education" did not begin in earnest until 1987 when she became aware of the influence of "rocks" on her physicality. She initially explored and worked with the Findhorn and the Perelandra Center for Nature Research information as she became consciously aware of the significant impact the Nature Spirits had in her life. She learned how to more effectively initiate contact with the various 'levels' of Nature, and to obtain information and direction from them. Since then she has maintained regular contact with them while following her inner guidance. Kim is also trained in Therapeutic Touch, Omega Shakti , Reiki, Polarity, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), and Signature Cell Healing. She is an Energizing Wholeness Practitioner, a Temple Academy Senior Helix Instructor, an Omega Teacher & Attunement Partner and most recently a Buddhist Energies recipient. Regardless of where her studies take her, she ultimately returns to Nature and the Nature Spirits to weave the new information and to ground it in a desire to assist with the ever moving consciousness shift that is occurring for both us humans and our planet.

MAY 2008

Do You Hear From Creator?
with Joanne Heinz

It is time for each of us to reclaim our personal connection to Creator. When Lemuria and Atlantis sank we lost more than the lands, we lost our open dialog with our higher self and direct connection to our Infinite Mother/Father Creator. We were forced to reincarnate over and over. Our communication with Source was prevented. Now the veils are lifting and communication is being restored. Joanne will reintroduces you to your direct line to Creator. It is time to give up relying on others to lead you; it is time to take charge of your own guidance.

By way of three separate meditations Joanne will help you discover your connections to your soul, using your heart center and opening the pathway to hearing Creator speak to you. She will teach a new way to work with your ego.

Joanne Heinz is an ordained Melchizedek priest and spiritual counselor. Joanne has spent all her adult life learning to come to her calling of teaching others how to reconnect and hear Creator speak to them. Since the age of 16, Joanne has been on a conscious quest for the truth of who we are and what is the highest and best good for her life and the life of all others. Joanne is also known as a Tree Whisperer and offers sessions in Theta Healing, Tuning Forks and Polarity Therapy

JUNE 2008

John Of Old, John Of New
with John Davis

Imagine being told by numerous psychics that you walked with Jesus two thousand years ago. This is what happened to John C. Davis, an actor who has performed for thousands of people around the world for over two decades. Thirteen different people, several unsolicited, had told him that he walked and taught with Jesus. Rather than taking anyone else's word for what had happened, John decided to find a regression therapist and explore the truth. The regression revealed that he is indeed the reincarnation of John the Beloved Apostle.

The original meaning of the scriptures and of Jesus' words has been affected by two thousand years of interpretation. If we are here to come to know God, would God make the path so difficult that we could never find our way? The message brought forth from John's regression is that the pathway to God is simple: LOVE. All major religions have their own Messiah, their own Avatar, and the foundation of all is LOVE. No dogma, no ceremony, no religion, just LOVE.

A result of John's amazing experiences was a desire to share his knowledge. A series of seminars ensued, which have encouraged audiences to experience the spark of the divine in themselves. Another result was the miraculous healings of many of those attending his lectures. To date, there have been healings from cancer, diabetes, osteoporosis, broken bones and many other conditions. John never charges for healings, although he gratefully accepts donations to further his work.

What happened two thousand years ago is past. It is important to know who you are in the present moment. Come listen and experience John's down-to-earth style and warm humor as you learn to connect to the Source within. You will find your simple connection to God in this present moment so that you can live a joyful and empowered life.

Transformation & The Drama In Consciousness
with Jonathon David Miller, M.A., M. Div.

The threat and real danger of a coordinated worldwide attempt at mass control, and possible widespread geographic, economic, political, military and personal upheavals, is a matter of a drama in consciousness. Through the mutual corporatization of most business and government, those at the top of this interwoven global corporate system seek to track and control all people. We have named this cabal the Transnational Interlocking Corporate Kingdom (TICK). This drama has developed and unfolded over many centuries, but it has now reached a climactic point. This period around the anticipated pivotal date of 2012 is one of the most challenging times in human history. In addition to the economic and social rearrangements envisioned by leaders of the TICK, significant Earth changes are likely to unfold in the next few years. In the process, people's lives will change, and many may leave physical life.

Life as we have known it is expected to be transformed. Yet this situation is not something to fear. The drama is about the well-established mode of thinking and acting out of separation and fear; OR releasing that limiting manner of operating, and expressing ourselves with the understanding of wholeness, awareness and love.

“Your Soul's Plan: Discovering the Real Meaning of the Life You Planned Before You Were Born”
Robert Schwartz

Robert Schwartz, author of the book, Your Soul's Plan: Discovering the Real Meaning of the Life You Planned before You Were Born, will discuss why we ourselves plan our greatest challenges before we’re born. Schwartz researched the pre-birth plans of dozens of individuals to determine what they had planned and why. His book contains ten true stories of people who planned physical illnesses, having handicapped children, deafness, blindness, drug addiction, alcoholism, losing a loved one, and severe accidents. The book presents the actual conversations souls had with one another when they planned their lives together. Suffering that once seemed purposeless becomes imbued with deep meaning; negative feelings are healed and replaced by acceptance, forgiveness, gratitude, and peace. Please visit www.CourageousSouls.com for more information.

In a personal session with a medium in 2003, author Robert Schwartz was astonished to speak with nonphysical beings who knew everything about him - not just what he had done in life, but also what he had thought and felt. They told him that he had planned many of his most difficult experiences before he was born. Realizing that knowledge of pre-birth planning would bring great healing to people and allow them to understand the deeper purpose of their life challenges, he devoted the next three years to studying the pre-birth plans of dozens of individuals. The extraordinary insights that emerged speak to our heartfelt, universal yearning to know . . . why.

Prior to his spiritual awakening, Mr. Schwartz was a freelance journalist, and he worked extensively in the corporate sector in marketing and communications. He holds a BA from Dartmouth College and an MBA from Case Western Reserve University .

“Aware in a World Asleep: A Principled Way for Living Spiritually”
Dr. Jim Young

Dr. Jim Young will introduce concepts from his most recent book, “Aware in a World Asleep: A Principled Way for Living Spiritually”. There are many who are now engaging spirituality as a path of good for them. Having a sense that they are in this world but not of it hasn’t resonated as the real path upon which they are to tread as their life’s purpose. So they’re looking elsewhere. "Aware in a World Asleep" is precisely for this kind of seeker. It speaks to the elements that have influenced us in significant ways, and makes a compelling case for a principled way of looking at life; a way which opens the doors of Truth or Wisdom found only within each of us. These seven powerful principles provide the framework for a fulfilling transformation to the spiritual way of living:

  • When you become fully aware of what you are, you will be what you really want to see.
  • Being and staying in your spiritual awareness determines what is real.
  • Divine creation is the result of Truth activated.
  • Expressing the faith /of/ God is the key to spiritual fulfillment.
  • Service to your inner Truth is the highest form of love.
  • Remembering to laugh at the idea of separation brings joy into celebrating the present.
  • I am my brother’s brother, not my brother’s keeper.

Dr. James H. Young, a former university president now living in NW Arkansas, is an award-winning spiritual writer, poet, and widely collected documentary/fine art photographer. Young is a ministerial graduate of the Pecos Benedictine Monastery’s ecumenical school for spiritual directors. A metaphysician who invokes the reframing of spiritual perspective and perception in his life’s work, he is a cofounder of the Arkansas Metaphysical Society and an ardent student of spirituality. Young is an inspirational teacher who takes participants to the threshold of their own Truth, and is available for workshops, seminars, and presentations.

“THE BIG BAD WOLF REINCARNATE” Puppet Show
Ginny Martin and Rochelle Sombati

It's a fun story about the Big Bad Wolf. After swallowing Little Red Riding Hood and her Grandmother whole, who are then retrieved by the Hunter, the Wolf drowns in the lake. After which, much to his surprise, he finds himself very much alive and well, but in the spirit world.

Confused, and a little lost, he is met by a very loving spirit guide, who offers to lead him gently through this unfamiliar territory. Convinced that he doesn't belong there, and can never be anything but a Big Bad Wolf, the Wolf tries to refuse.

Nevertheless, a Spirit Doctor tells him he will be fine. With the help of a group of Wise Spirits, he is shown, on a special television set, the possibilities for him in his future lifetimes. (We are looking in on the Wolf's Pre-Birth Planning Session for his future lives). Come and have fun with us, as this wonderful story unfolds before your eyes.

Ginny Martin has been an avid student of metaphysics since the early 1960s, when she discovered Unity, Theosophy, Spiritualism,and Reincarnation, all at approximately the same time. She feels they complement each other, and together they have dramatically changed her life for the better.

She has served as President, Vice President, and Program Chairman of the Theosophical Society of Akron, has attended workshops at their national headquarters in Wheaton, Illinois, and at their Krotona School in Ojai, California, as well as at the Edgar Casey Institute (A.R.E.) in Virginia Beach, Virginia, the Omega Institute in New York, and at the Spiritualism Center in Lily Dale, New York.

Early in this period, she discovered that she is also a channel for messages from spirit, which has helped her greatly, as well as helping others.

Ginny will be reading the story of the BIG BAD WOLF REINCARNATE, while Rochelle will be serving as "puppeteer." For the past three years, Ginny and Rochelle have been putting on puppet performances at elementary schools and adult day care centers in the area. It will be their pleasure to present this show for your pleasure and "enlightenment."
