The Sanctuary of the Universal Spiritual Circle
Legally incorporated and chartered by the State of New York in 1998
A Religious Organization Is Its People
We are a group of spiritually minded people meeting in Interfaith Spiritual Circles around the world. We usually meet in homes. The size of our circle groups is small and we welcome everyone who wants to be a part of a Spiritual family. We are inclusive, not exclusive. Many of us have birth families that are on the same spiritual path that we are on, so all of us sit in our Spiritual Circle together. Others of us find that our birth families are not on the same spiritual path and so we sit in a circle with those who are like-minded with us.
All Spiritual paths lead to The Source of Love, Light and Healing in this Universe, so we send blessings to all and affirm our gratitude for freedom of religion and free speech. We come together in our Spiritual Circles to be a family to each other, celebrate together and to share our sorrows and joys.
Our Spiritual Leaders
Our Spiritual Leaders may be called Ministers, Priests, Priestesses, Clergy, Reverends, Pastors, Mother, Father, Brother, Sister, Rabbi, Teacher, or other appropriate titles; they are ordained in this Spiritual Organization on the closest Sunday to the Summer Solstice each year. There is no judgment associated with the ordination.
The person who wishes to be ordained is attracted to living Love and teaching Love. Those being ordained are allowed to legally marry couples and must check with the town clerk of the wedding location to determine if they need to register in that city, county or state. All ceremonies, except weddings, do not need ordination or legal status.
Our Religious Organization, like many traditional churches today, uses the Order of Melchizedek as a principle for our ordination. The Ancient Order of Melchizedek refers to the clergy being called to service rather than because they were born into the appropriate family lineage. We are called to our ministry in the Sanctuary of the Universal Spiritual Circle. We are called to live Love and teach Love.
Our Religious Organization also uses the Ancient Order of Isis as a principle for our ordinations. This Order teaches that beauty and truth are sacred and that one enhances the other. As one finds awareness in beauty, one is given awareness in truth and as one finds awareness in truth one is given awareness of beauty. This was taught through thousands of years of history throughout Egypt and Mesopotamia and into Greece. Even on the North American continent the principles of truth and beauty are linked and taught by the ancient Pueblo Peoples such as the Hopi Peoples and also the Navajo Peoples. We correlate truth and beauty.
Our By-Laws
One of our most important by-laws is that we will never be organized. Organized religions tend to drift away from being tolerant and compassionate. We choose to be tolerant, compassionate and loving.
The Master Number 33
We resonate with the master number 33. The master number 33 is the number that vibrates with the energy of world communication, global messages. We will communicate important messages to the world in our ministries. These messages will be communications of love that will facilitate the world being a better place to live for all beings. We affirm 2000 years of peace and plenty for the earth and all creation. Let us walk in this beauty and truth.
KISS Motto
Keep it simple and spiritual is our motto.
