Overall Theme for the Year: Walking the Path of Light: A Journey to Peace and Purpose

This overarching theme reflects the spiritual journey inspired by A Course in Miracles—a yearlong practice of deepening our connection to God, embracing forgiveness, and stepping into our role as the light of the world. In each month’s study guide, students will find a structured approach to exploring the principles of A Course in Miracles (ACIM) through monthly themes and weekly subtopics.

Each week includes an overview, a guided meditation, practical exercises, reflection questions, and relevant readings from ACIM to deepen understanding and application. Designed to support a well-rounded study and practice, the guide also provides homework assignments and journaling prompts, encouraging students to integrate ACIM teachings into their daily lives and cultivate a transformative experience of forgiveness, love, and inner peace.

Join our Sunday Study Group to discuss each week’s theme. Our study groups are free, but a love offering donation helps us to continue our work. See study group information at https://miraclesone.org You do not need to have the study guide to participate, as Rev. Paul will be facilitating the discussion.

 The first meeting of the new year is Sunday, January 5th. Each month’s optional study guide is free to those who have monthly memberships with MiraclesOne (email us to receive) or you can receive the study guide by donating $5.00 at https://miraclesone.org

January Theme: New Beginnings: Embracing the Light of a Fresh Start January marks a time of renewal and reflection – a perfect opportunity to align with the themes of new beginnings, releasing the past, and stepping into the light of our true purpose.

In A Course in Miracles, the idea of starting anew resonates deeply with its teachings on forgiveness, letting go of illusions, and returning to the truth of who we are.

Our initial series will delve into the "Truly Helpful" prayer, a cornerstone of the teachings in 'A Course in Miracles.' This prayer, found on page 28 of the Text, is not just a set of words but a profound declaration of intent and purpose for anyone seeking to live a life aligned with spiritual principles.

In our exploration, we will:

• Examine the prayer line by line, uncovering its deep meanings and implications.
• Discuss how to apply these principles in our daily lives, turning theory into practical, lived experience.- Engage in guided meditations to internalize the message of the prayer, allowing it to resonate deeply within our hearts and minds.
• Additionally:- You can join either our Sunday or Wednesday study groups, each will contain the same study each week. This first series will be about 10 weeks.- Some weeks will be teaching sessions; others will be group reading and study.- Be sure to have your ACIM book nearby and a journal or notebook available.- Teaching sessions with Rev. Deb will be recorded.
• Information and additional materials will be sent out each week in relation to the focus of study in each week's newsletter. Make a donation to support our all-volunteer ministry. Sign up now at https://www.miraclesone.org
