Heading into the Holiday Season!!

There is lots going on that we would like to tell you about as we head into the holiday season.

First and foremost, of course, is our annual Celebration of Light. It will be held on December 19th at 7pm at the Kelowna Community Theatre.

After that, please join us on December 21st at 7pm at the Peace Centre for a very special 'Taize' service. This is a contemplative service of readings, music, and silence. It is a profound experience that you won't want to miss.

And finally we will join again with millions of others around the world for the World Healing Day peace meditation on December 31st at 4:00 am (no we are not kidding) at the Peace Centre.

All the best for a wonderful holiday season from all of us at the Centre for Spiritual Living Kelowna!!!

World Day of Service 2016 - Your Gift to the World

Selfless service alone gives the needed strength and courage to awaken the sleeping humanity in one's heart. - Dr. Crystal J. Davis  CSL Member Council

We have created a Triple-header Service opportunity for you to share your gift of service with the City of Kelowna as you participate in CSL's 4th Annual World Day of Service.  

People of all ages, children to seniors are invited to join us as CSL Kelowna participates in the BC Thanksgiving Day Food Drive.  This is a great chance to gather as family, natural and spiritual, to collect food that will stock the shelves of the Kelowna Food Bank.  

All events take place at the Pandosy Peace Centre, 2490 Pandosy Street (corner of Morrison and Pandosy). 

On Saturday evening Sept 10, at 7pm  we will kick-start the event with a fun movie and popcorn evening at the Pandosy Peace Centre.  We will have Spiritual Cinema as we gather to prepare bags to be handed out in our community to collect food.  Bring along a stapler if you have one!  Popcorn and beverages will be served!

Thursday evening at 6:30, we gather to fan out in teams, via vehicle, to deliver empty grocery bags and flyers to homes around the Peace Centre.  This is a fantastic opportunity to meet new people, and to get a bit of exercise at the same time.  We are generally finished by 8:30 or 9:00 pm. 

Saturday, Sept 17th at 10:00 am we will return, in teams, to pick up the donated food items from homes in our assigned area.  Once the food is picked up from homes, we will collect it together for delivery to the Food Drive Drop-off spot.  People are welcome to join in the sorting of food items at the drop-off zone, or may choose to complete their day at the PPC.    We are generally done food pick up by 12:30 or 1:00pm, and the sorting at the food bank site is complete by 3:00 or 4:00.  People need not stay for the sorting, but it is so much fun!
