Yoga is a practice that brings together the mind and body. In fact, yoga means “to yoke” or unite. It is an ancient healing practice that is both physical and spiritual, incorporating postures, breath, and meditation. Yoga heals! Yoga provides relief from numerous forms of trauma, anxiety, and physical stiffness. It also builds a strong physical and spiritual core.

Join us every Monday from 7-8 pm for a vinyasa flow that will strengthen and energize as well as promote flexibility and balance. We will also experience inner peace by the closing meditation called Shivasana. Please bring a mat and water bottle, and the class meets in the beautiful sanctuary. There is no registration required, and the cost per class is $10 or a food pantry donation (the pantry is located outside the center). Class will not meet on federal holidays. Venmo: Jennifer-Kurz-2.

A Course in Miracles
2025-02-19 19:00 - 20:30 | Online
A Course in Miracles was channeled by Jesus in the 60’s to a Columbia University medical school faculty member, perhaps to help us remember the message he came to teach when he walked on this earth.
Each week we begin our exploration by reading the short introduction which includes these words “the course does not aim at teaching the meaning of love for that is beyond what can be taught. It does aim however at removing the blocks to the awareness of Love’s presence which is your natural inheritance.”
Has any other subject been written or sung about more often than love? Isn’t it the organizing principle of all religions? So popular and prominent in our daily discourse, yet so elusive. And don’t we yearn for an alternative to fear, guilt and hatred, suspicion and divisiveness?
Whether a beginner, a student of many years, or an on-again/off again inquirer, you are invited to join us in seeking to learn how to love and enjoy being in love. It’s not a solo performance. Only together, is love manifest.
We meet by ZOOM, every Wednesday from 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.

Annual Business Meeting of Common Street Spiritual Center
2025-02-24 19:00 - 20:30 | Virtual Meeting
Every year, our community has an annual business meeting, facilitated by our council (aka board) to which all members are invited. At this meeting, members of the community have a chance to hear updates about how our center is doing and what our goals are going forward, engage in discussion, and also to vote on important topics like our budget and the election of new members of our council (aka board).
This year’s annual meeting is scheduled for Monday, February 24th at 7pm, and will be held virtually via zoom. Here’s the link: https://commonstreet.zoom.us/j/99306609037
Attendance at the meeting is highly encouraged, because we are seeking to have a solid quorum of members present. If you are getting this email, you are a member of the Spiritual Center community and we do ask that you attend the meeting if possible.
***
Our community functions as a small democracy where each member has a voice and a vote, and the most important decisions come before the community as a whole for discussion and a vote. The annual business meeting is open to the wider community, like “friends” of the center who may be interested in learning more, but only members are allowed to vote.
If you cannot be there on Feb 24th at 7pm, our council is working on a way to include more members in the process by sending out a recording of the meeting afterwards, along with a survey that would at least informally give folks who missed the meeting a chance to vote or voice questions or comments for a two week window after the meeting.
***
This year, we will be asking the community to vote on this proposed budget for 2025. [insert link] If you have questions about the budget, please do ask them in advance by emailing the council at council@commonstreet.org.
We will also be sharing a report about our spending in the last calendar year with updates about what we accomplished, how the community is growing and developing, and forecasts of our plans for 2025, including invitations for community members to get more engaged.
***
Currently, our council is working to recruit new members to fill vacancies, both for our council itself and for key teams that we are seeking to build around fundraising, membership, and volunteer engagement. Hopefully, at the annual meeting, we will be ready to present candidates for the council to the community for a vote. We will keep you updated as we learn more, and let you know more about who the candidates may be in advance of the meeting. Also, we want to invite members of the community to view this page to find out more about the openings on our council and to express interest if they feel called to serve in this way. https://commonstreet.org/growing-our-council/
Similarly, if you feel called to serve, or if you simply want to learn more about the volunteer openings in the key areas of fundraising, membership, and/or volunteer engagement, please visit this page to learn more and express interest: https://commonstreet.org/forming-core-volunteer-teams/
As we move into 2025, one of our goals is to strengthen the volunteer structure of the community, which we believe will add to our overall resilience and our ability to accomplish the goals we envision.
