Appointments for 2010 "Our Greatest Birth"

We at the Hope Interfaith Center offer genuine hope for humankind as the count down to 2012 continues. We not only try to explain the 2012 phenomenon, but we present ways that we can participate in the shift of human consciousness to help with the oncoming transformation.

What would it mean to discover that the power to create joy, heal suffering and bring peace to that which lives inside of you?
How would you live your life knowing this?

I have had students who have asked me to help midwife them during this time of great shift. So in August, the books will once again be opened to make appointments for people who want spiritual direction to learn how to intensify positive energy.

Learning how to release the ego will give you dramatic evidence of a web of energy that connects everything in our lives and our world ? this is the Divine Matrix. From healing of our bodies to the success of our careers, our relationships, there is evidence that we each hold the power that links us to all creation.

We will also be taking 20 students for two hour slots. Hope has been guided to have some students on the table for one hour for energy matrix work and one hour for personal reflection time. These appointments are for students who are willing and wanting major mentorship during this time.

Penny continues to meet with those desiring spiritual counseling as well. We understand that Hope is not always available. You may find it helpful to meet with Hope at times and Penny at times. They have been told that their styles offer different ways to look at the same teachings.

The Hope Interfaith Center’s intention is to provide guidance and support for all who walk in the door! 2012 marks the beginning of a new and better world. The Mayans saw it as a time of dramatic rebirth for humanity. As the earth aligns itself, this brings on a time of transformation in which an expanded consciousness creates your new world.
Call 507-386-1242 to make 2010 appointments.

“There is as much greatness of mind in acknowledging a good turn, as in doing it.”


Hearty thanks to all who helped at HIC last quarter! During this time we planted a whole row of trees, cleaned up and then planted around the yard for summer, organized and ran the yearly rummage sale – Thanks to Kim, Andrew, and Austin Cummings, Scott Tower, Jason Lobitz, Joni O’Connell, Dean Muesing, Ursula Christ, Jill Augustin, Rachel Sear, Marlene Lange, Monika Antonelli, Robin Schaffer, Bonnie Smasal, Dorothy Mumma, Rashmi, Jo Gangestad. Thanks to Angela Anderson who duplicates and prepares the monthly teaching CDs. And thanks to Sara Gorman who is working our FaceBook page! And continued thanks to all of you who do the little things, often unnoticed (moving chairs in the Great Room, cleaning up the kitchen, etc), that help keep HIC flowing and growing!

~ All Sacred Pathways Honored ~

When you come to the Center, we would ask that you remove your shoes if possible. There are mats and cubbies that will hold your shoes. This is not only to help keep the Center clean but it is also a way of honoring the sacredness of the space. Thank you.
