Where in the World is She?

I am preparing to fly to Costa Rica for my nephew's wedding. I am very excited and feel blessed and honored to officiate. This is the third nephew who has asked me to be part of the wedding party. Each one has been different. I love weddings. I love to be part of them. I believe the vows a couple makes to one another are sacred and one can always feel God's presence wherever there is Love.

My first experience, only a year into ministry, was my oldest nephew. I was asked to play piano for the wedding. (I guess that my ministerial consciousness had not fully blossomed.) I took my responsibilities very seriously. I have never practiced so much for anything! I think my rehearsal time was approximately 120 hours for a seven-minute gig plus prelude and postlude. 

The second wedding was a few years later and I was asked to participate jointly with the local minister. Both of those weddings had taken place in Saskatoon, Canada. 

This time, I was asked to officiate and I am thrilled. it has been such fun to envision my nephew and his fiance repeating their promises to each other in such an exquisite setting.When I talked to them about marriage, they both declared to be each other's best friend. I think this is a great place to start! their wedding invitation includes this quote from A.A. Milne's , Winnie the Pooh:
"'Well be friends forever, won't we, Pooh?'  asked Piglet"
"'Even longer,' Pooh answered." 
 Longer than forever is exactly the right length of time to commit to love one another; it is exactly how long we are all loved by the Divine Presence.

This will be my first trip to Costa Rica. I hear it is beautiful.The wedding will take place at the Dreams Las Mareas Resort. The pictures of the resort are spectacular! This is the first destination wedding in which I have participated. (I think that is ironic, since we LIVE in a destination spot!)

I am really going to take a vacation. So although I might peak at email or texts, I do not plan to be available. That does not mean I don't love you. I do!

I will see you all on the 10th of April.

Until then, please bless the happy couple Ryan John Mitchell Clark and his fiance, Anra Lee. They will be getting married on the beach overlooking the ocean at 4:00 PM on April 5, 2016.

My Time of Celebration!

 This Easter season represents purification, illumination, mastership… And an awakening to re-Birth and resurrection! Hooray! -Rhonda Maria Farrah

Still experiencing and expressing that most Powerful Easter Celebration of yesterday at our Center...Rev Heather's wisdom, the Inspiring and moving music of our own Jewel Tones Choir, God's Presence in us, as us, all throughout the members of our community...is where I AM as this week begins.  Thank You, Spirit God for that...as the blustering wind, rain and a biting coolness in the air brought with it some chaos for me by means of some old past fears and doubtsl  Wow...I thought that I had released those.  Guess I took them back.

And as I went through those sad and pain-filled feelings and emotions, I called upon the Spiritual tools and message of yesterday's service.  I went with my GodSelf...and not merely the earthling in me. I was reminded of Rev Heather's words and invitation to Identify MySelf With What I Want.  Sadness and pain, slowly, but surely, were replaced with a Peace and Joy...just as the clouds parted, and sunlight showed up.  Thank you for that, as well, God!
My time of Celebration for rising above the lower self and giving full expression to the true Christ energy...Consciousness. It is the time of full and true communion with my GOD Source. As I impulsively resurrect my life, I focus on my healing and transformation… a time to resurrect the Feminine from the darkness into Light!
If there is something in an area of your Life that just did not turn out the way you had envisioned, please consider that Spirit God is telling you that it likely  did not match your dream...that which was in Your heart of hearts.  IT is also telling You that IT has something BETTER and more worthy of You. 
Something, Someone, Somewhere better is coming! So...GET EXCITED...NOW!

I invite you to consider… The cross you may be bearing is the opening to your awakening to a Life of Purpose… The Life that you Truly Desire!
To New Beginnings Together!
Are You Ready To Celebrate Life…and BE the Best that YOU can BE?

I NOW invite YOU to Celebrate LIFE…Let’s Talk …with Your 30 minute complimentary Consultation!

To Our Health, Well-BEING, and Empowerment Together!

Much Love & GOD’s Blessings!
Rhonda

Identify Yourself with What You Want, Easter Sunday Service



Today I am transformed by the renewing of my mind. I roll away the stone of negativity, fear and doubt to reveal the risen Christ consciousness within me. It is a beautiful day, morning has broken, and I celebrate my eternal life now. And so it is.
