SUMMARY:"What Really Matters" - A Talk sponsored by First Church of Christ\, Scientist\, West Chester\, PA
DESCRIPTION:About this talk:\nWhen finding solutions seems difficult\, it’s often because we are having trouble knowing what matters. But the right kind of vision (hint: it’s spiritual) allows us to discern what is actually important. Christian Science reveals what is essential\, brings solutions\, and enables us to live God-impelled lives that bless our families and communities. \nClick here to learn more about the branch church sponsoring important event. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				About our Speaker Nicole Virgil\, CS:Member of the Christian Science Board of Lectureship\nNicole’s father was a free-lance church organist\, and her parents attended services at many different Christian churches in New England. Her mom had been on a years-long search to find out how to practice Christian healing just as Jesus did\, and when she started attending Christian Science church services\, she found what she was looking for. As a result\, Nicole was raised in Christian Science\, and developed a deep desire for an intimate relationship with God. \nNicole studied Christian Science with her mom and music with her dad\, and found that each discipline complemented the other. Christian Science healed performance anxiety\, while learning music honed the skills she needed for spiritual practice — skills such as intuition\, listening\, patience and diligence. Throughout her life\, Christian Science and music have always overlapped: after studying opera at music school\, she took her one-woman opera review program (That Can’t Be Opera!) on the road\, educating audiences about opera by singing Mozart\, Puccini\, and Menotti. Christian Science guided her through this entrepreneurial endeavor\, just as it led her to start soloing in churches as a teenager (which is something she still loves to do!) — Nicole eventually married\, started a family with her husband\, and entered the public practice of Christian Science. \nToday Nicole enjoys raising children\, gardening\, soloing in church\, and witnessing the healing effect of Christian Science.

SUMMARY:"Effective prayer: Finding healing and wholeness in divine Love" - A Talk sponsored by First Church of Christ\, Scientist\, Berwyn\, PA
DESCRIPTION:About this talk:\nIn this lecture\, explore practical and transformative prayer\, as taught in Christian Science. Through compelling personal stories\, Christian Science practitioner and lecturer Bobby Lewis illustrates how the spiritual laws of divine Love operate– and how prayer brings us into alignment with these laws. Whether you’re feeling lost or struggling with illness\, effective prayer can restore clarity\, peace and wholeness in every area of life. \nClick here to learn more about the branch church sponsoring important event. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				About our Speaker Bobby Lewis\, CS:Member of the Christian Science Board of Lectureship\nBobby grew up in the mountains of Colorado in the US and has found inspiration in wild places all of his life. During some tough teen-age years\, his mother (a Christian Science Practitioner)\, helped him begin to see himself as spiritually whole and loved by God right in the midst of those challenges. It made all the difference and that dark time was left behind. \nThe care he received\, and those early lessons of the value of seeking spiritually and listening deeply to God\, set him on a trajectory of wanting to give back to others by supporting their growth. Over the years that took shape in work as a camp counselor\, experiential educator\, and chaplain for service organizations. \nAfter studying religion in college and graduate school with a focus on learning more about how to put the teachings of the Bible into day-to-day practice\, Bobby began work as a Christian Science practitioner\, reaching out to others with healing focused prayer. \nBeing “moved with compassion\,” as Christ Jesus modeled\, and connecting people with God’s healing love is at the heart of Bobby’s ministry and life. \nBobby still lives in Colorado with his family and animals on a little ranch along the river\, where he loves to write poetry\, walk\, listen\, and stand in awe of Spirit’s infinite creation.
