You Are Unique
- Details
- Series: 2025
- Date: Sunday, 12 January 2025
- Speaker: Rev. Bill Marchiony
Back in the olden days, Rev. Bill would say "you are unique - just like everyone else". It was completely sarcastic, and became his signature when email became a thing. He explains why he still uses it, but with a completely different meaning.
As always, the Practitioner Core leads the Celebration in meditation and prayer.
Live, original music by Deb Chamberlin ties it all together.

White Stone Ceremony

- Date: Sunday, 29 December 2024
- Speaker: Rev. Bill Marchiony
We wrap up the year with a special ceremony, using white stones imported from Jerusalem to set an intention for the Good that we're inviting into our lives in 2025. It's a beautiful way to ring in the new year. If you’d like a Jerusalem stone, please email the office so we can get one to you!
It's part of the fifth Sunday Healing Celebration, where Rev. Bill Marchiony and the Practitioner Core lead us in a deep and profound process through which we all gain greater insight into our connection with Spirit.

- Speaker: Rev. Bill Marchiony
You're making a list, and checking it twice. Celebrating the season of shopping excess, and the pressure of planning, buying, wrapping, and giving. Rev. Bill Marchiony takes a breather from the hustle and bustle with a reminder about abundance and gratitude, and how presence can be more powerful than presents.
What Are You Looking At?

- Date: Sunday, 08 December 2024

The Practical Prayer podcast
New episodes every Wednesday. Listen now...
We record every Monday at 1pm and livestream the session. Join the "live studio audience" on Facebook or YouTube for a peek behind the scenes.
A Practical Prayer is a prayer that WORKS! These discussions between Rev. Bill Marchiony and Carol Lawrence dive into the details of how it works, and how to work it.
Rev. Bill is a New Thought minister, and the Author of Practical Prayer for Real Results. Carol Lawrence is on a spiritual quest, finding the New Thought teaching after decades on the pulpit in three different traditional denominations. Together, they're exploring the philosophy and activities that come together from many of the world's religions to create the Practical Spirituality that is New Thought.
Spiritual Counseling & Practical Prayer sessions with Rev. Bill
Our beliefs create our experience of life. When we are dissatisfied with any aspect of life - be it...
- health and vitality
- prosperity and enough-ness
- love and connection
- the way we share our gifts with the world
- or something else...
there is very likely a belief at work that is hidden below our conscious awareness.
Rev. Bill works with you one-on-one to discover those hidden beliefs and replace them with ones that will tend to bring more of the Good you seek into your life.
Each session includes a personal Practical Prayer to activate the Truth of who you are as individualized expressions of Spirit. Through practice of this scientific form of prayer, we enter an energetic vibration that anchors our awareness in our essential perfection and oneness with the I Am Presence of the Self, and invite a new experience of Life.
Three, six, and twelve-session packages include free follow-up via email or text between sessions. Unused sessions expire after 18 months.
All session will be scheduled at a mutually agreeable time, via Zoom, phone or in-person.
