You’re invited into a deeply nourishing and expansive experience this Mother’s Day—an opportunity to reconnect with your heart, your energy, and the wisdom within your body. This sacred gathering is rooted in the teachings of **Light Body Expansion**, working with the intelligence of **Life Force energy** and the multidimensional frequencies of **Light Language** to support profound healing, activation, and inner alignment. We begin with a ceremonial cacao journey—an ancient heart-opening medicine that softens the body and gently guides you into a state of receptivity. From this space, you’ll be guided through powerful Life Force activations designed to awaken your energy field, release stagnation, and restore natural flow within the body. Through Light Language transmissions, we move beyond the mind—working directly with your energetic system to activate remembrance, elevate your frequency, and support expansion on a cellular and soul level. This experience is not just something you attend—it’s something you feel, embody, and integrate. Held in a sacred and supportive container, this is your space to slow down, receive, and reconnect with the essence of who you are. Whether you are honoring yourself, your lineage, or the Divine Mother within, this journey invites you into deeper love, presence, and expansion. Come as you are. Leave activated, open, and aligned.

You may not know it, but we are! We're in your schools, diners, police force, military, government, and some are even still in your churches! So come and join us and meet other local atheists, along with agnostics, heathens, humanists, skeptics, and anyone else who's 'hell bound'! Vision: a Central Ohio that accepts atheism as a viable alternative in all areas of public and private life. Mission: grow, support, and provide community for atheists in Central Ohio. Social meetings held most Tuesdays at a local pub/restaurant at 7:00 PM (and often into the wee hours). Attendees call themselves agnostics, skeptics, humanists, non-theists, deists or even theists.

It was a member of Columbus CoR and held weekly meetings, mostly on Fridays, for several years but then operated as an online only group for some time. In November 2018, Omnipresent Atheists (OA), a group that routinely meets on Tuesdays, invited AoC to merge. Omnipresent Atheists is a member of the Columbus Coalition of Reason (ColumbusCoR.org).
