How Much Do You Know About the Season for Nonviolence?

         

     A Season for Nonviolence, January 30 - April 4 is a National 64-day educational, media, and grassroots campaign dedicated to demonstrating that nonviolence is a powerful way to heal, transform, and empower our lives and our communities. It has been inspired by the 50th and 30th memorial anniversaries of Mahatma Gandhi (January 30), and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., (April 4.)This is an International event that honors their vision for an empowered, nonviolent world.

     Here at the Center for Spiritual Living in Santa Rosa our team of volunteers has published a booklet with 64 Ways in 64 Days that offers us 64 daily affirmations as a way to create an awareness of nonviolent principles and to practice a powerful way to heal, transform, and empower our lives and communities by using them. Our kickoff event is scheduled for Thursday, February 2, at 6:30 pm. Our featured speaker is Kenny Johnson, a spiritual teacher and consultant to families and to released and incarcerated men and women.

Featured Prayer Practitioner

Rosie Rodriguez
rosie_rodriguez2.jpgMs. Rosie Rodriguez has been a Professional Prayer Practitioner for the last 12 years. It is her greatest joy to pray. “I live my life as a Prayer!” She is a part of two prayer groups that have met once a week for the past nine years. She holds a free workshop called "Forgive 70 x 7" every third Sunday of the month.
 
Testimonial
After a practitioner session with Rosie, I always feel loved up, prayed up, and aware of the power of God at work in my life. Her monthly Forgiveness workshops have changed my life. Before working on forgiveness with Rosie, I had difficulty letting go of resentments, took things way too personally, and felt angry at someone or something most of the time. Forgiveness has opened my heart, allowing it to be filled with acceptance, compassion, and understanding. I now find myself releasing grudges and hurt feelings before they have a chance to become resentments. God bless Ms. Rosie Rodriguez!NH
