OUR SPEAKER PROGRAM

Lynn Young — 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. — "The Face of 2012": What’s ahead? The journey of conscious awakening is here! Tickets are $26 in advance and $29 at the door ONLINE TICKETS HERE

Echo Bodine — 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. — "Do You Know How Gifted You Are?" Do you ever get pictures in your head that are an answer to a prayer? Do random thoughts pop into your head from time to time that give you the guidance you've been searching for? Have you noticed that those gut hunches you get, that the inner knowing you have is always accurate? Do your hands heat up when you're around someone in pain? Many of us chalk these experiences up to coincidence, but the truth is, we are gifted in many ways beyond our awareness. Internationally known psychic and spiritual healer Echo Bodine will help you understand your spiritual gifts in this two-hour talk. When she was first told at age 17 that she was born with psychic abilities and the gift of healing, she didn't believe it. She never considered herself to be anything but “normal” until her spiritual teacher came along and helped her understand how these gifts work. She now believes using her gifts is part of being “normal” and believes everyone has them. Echo presents this information in a simple, straightforward way. She will also do a few mini readings for members of the audience and channel a guided healing meditation at the end of her talk. Come and learn about the gifts you already have! Tickets are $26 in advance and $29 at the door ONLINE TICKETS HERE
