CSL-White Rock Sunday's MessageSacred Audacity with Rev. Tamara RossanderWe can choose to live large or small, and our experience reflects that choice. Today, we have the opportunity to make any necessary adjustments to achieve a different outcome in life.
The only thing holding us back is ourselves and possible perceptions of obstacles.
A sacred knowing is deep within us that always supports and guides us. Combined with courage, tenacity, and keen inner listening, this innate knowing will deliver us from and through anything. As we partner with Spirit, all things are truly possible, especially the seemingly impossible.

Cassandra RaeThe very first day I attended a Sunday Gathering at CSL White Rock, six years ago, I knew I had found ‘the Thing’ I had been seeking for three decades.

Prior to 6 years ago, I understood the two places where 'good' and 'bad' people go - and they both start with the letter 'H.' In 2014, my understanding of Where We Go When We Die shifted entirely when I began attending the Centre for Spiritual Living White Rock.

CSL-White Rock Sunday's MessageSelf-care is Community-careIn the past, my incredibly limited understanding of self-care meant three shamefully decadent and time-wasting behaviors: a visit to the hairdresser; polishing my nails; and a candle-lit, scented soak in the tub. Self-care translated to me as selfish. For the past 10 months, with Rev. Cassandra as my-self-proclaimed-mentor-in-all-things-self-care, I recognize how very limiting and harmful my beliefs were – not only to myself but to those I love around me.
