- Date: Sunday, 20 September 2026
- Speaker: Rev. Bill Marchiony
As our society has grown more divided there has been a tendency for the sides to disagree on some of the basic facts behind the disagreement. Rev. Bill Marchiony notes that this can be disheartening, and that there is a divine Truth - with a capital T - that is not subject to dispute.
Open to the Unexpected

- Series: 2026
- Date: Sunday, 13 September 2026
- Speaker: Rev. Dave Schpok
The Universe always says yes, but sometimes not quite the way we think it should. Disappointment and frustration can close our awareness of the good right in front of us. Rev. Dave Schpok explores ways to move through limiting thought patterns to receive that which is always present.
Principles of Prosperity

- Series: 2026
- Date: Sunday, 23 August 2026
- Speaker: Rev. Bill Marchiony
We are in a Universe of limitless Abundance, and there's ample evidence when we look at the night sky or the expanse of an ocean. Rev. Bill Marchiony reminds us that the same Power that created all of that is standing by to bring more of what we experience as Good into our lives.
It'll Take a Miracle

- Series: 2026
- Date: Sunday, 16 August 2026
- Speaker: Rev. Bill Marchiony
The New Thought teaching is all about inviting miracles - changes to our lives that we wouldn't normally expect. Rev. Bill Marchiony explores the natural unfolding of events, and how "miracles" look very different before they happen, and after.
What is Good?

- Series: 2026
- Date: Sunday, 09 August 2026
- Speaker: Rev. Bill Marchiony
The Creative process, which is the heart of our New Thought teaching, describes how we are engaged in creating the next experience of our lives. Rev. Bill Marchiony digs a bit deeper, and helps us understand that, when we're praying for "good", we need to understand that "good" is more personal opinion than absolute fact.

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.
