NOTE: This will be a joint meeting with the Lesbian Spiritual Book Group--Portland.
What a wonderful and rich discussion we had on April 19 when we discussed Fierce Love: A Bold Path to Ferocious Courage and Rule-Breaking Kindness That Can Heal the World by Rev. Dr. Jacqui Lewis. Thank you so much to the 7 of us who logged onto Zoom and joined in, creating a very intimate discussion. The strength and commitment of this group makes it possible for us to connect deeply even online, and I so appreciate this remarkable group of women.
Our next meeting will be on Saturday, May 24, 2025, from 4:00-6:00 pm PDT. We will discuss The Prophetess by Chelan Harkin. The book is widely available in print and audiobook, new and used and electronically from www.amazon.com, www.alibris.com and other sellers. Please contact me if you need help locating or purchasing the book.
You are welcome whether you have read or listened to the book or not--the conversation will be rich and intimate regardless. Each time we are joined by some who have not read the book, and I think they can attest that our conversations start with the book and roam freely into the rest of our lives.
We have had a problem with uninvited disruptors. Please note that all members will be held in the waiting room and only admitted if they respond to messages or are known to us. All members must be willing to appear full face on screen throughout the meeting. If you have not RSVP'd, you will not be admitted if you are not known to the group.
About the book:
The Prophetess is a modern take on Kahlil Gibran’s classic 1923 book, The Prophet. The beautiful verse explores the power and timeless wisdom of the Divine Feminine. The Prophetess invites readers into the core of life’s most meaningful subjects and offers a taste of a more spiritually fulfilling way to relate to ourselves and the world. This book boldly and astutely encourages the creative redefinition of old patterns of thought that our lives may more closely align with beauty and truth. The Prophetess offers permission to explore a new paradigm characterized by acknowledgment of our light, the claiming of our gifts, and the embrace of our wholeness.
About the author:
Chelan has always had a close connection with the spiritual world, a loving, ecstatic and expressive spirit, and an intimacy in her soul that she longs to share with others and the whole world. Poetry is one of her favorite, most satisfying ways to accomplish this.
Her process with poetry is very special to her. All of these poems have come through essentially intact and entire in less than two minutes with little to no content editing. Chelan believes they are luminous morsels of remembrance from the spiritual world to help her on her way and to share with others.
