“Circle of Friends” Healing Gathering

Help and Healing on the Spiritual Path through the teachings of Bruno Groening

A divine power exists and it can heal.  Bruno Groening (1906-1959), a simple German man, had very precise, intuitive knowledge of this energy and through his teachings made it freely available to everyone.  Thousands of people have been helped by this ancient knowledge.

The Bruno Groening Circle of Friends passes on these simple teachings free of charge and offers information lectures throughout the world.  The duration of the lecture is approximately 90 minutes.  You are invited to attend and experience this healing energy for yourself.

Admission is free. Donations are appreciated.

Movie & Meditation

The Power of Meditation with Reverend Lela
Friday, May 7th, 6 – 9 pm This event is Free
This Friday, we are going to do something special—-we will start at 6pm with an indoor or outdoor (weather permitting) labyrinth walk followed by a guided meditation. This will get us perfectly in a place of peace to have dinner and watch a movie. We are going to watch a movie called “Flow: for the love of water” ~about the world water crisis and the economics of water. We will order some form of take out for dinner so please bring $5-7 to contribute. I look forward to seeing you all there. In Peace, Rev Lela

The movie–Irena Salina’s award-winning documentary investigation into what experts label the most important political and environmental issue of the 21st Century – The World Water Crisis. Salina builds a case against the growing privatization of the world’s dwindling fresh water supply with an unflinching focus on politics, pollution, human rights, and the emergence of a domineering world water cartel. Begging the question “CAN ANYONE REALLY OWN WATER?” Beyond identifying the problem, FLOW also gives viewers a look at the people and institutions providing practical solutions to the water crisis and those developing new technologies, which are fast becoming blueprints for a successful global and economic turnaround.
