A Practice Circle is a closed group that meets via Zoom once a week for between six to eight consecutive weeks. Each weekly gathering is facilitated and goes for an hour and a half. In practice circles we engage in contemplative practice together, cultivating harmony of being by attuning to and aligning with the Presence of Spirit and ‘the sound of the genuine’ within us and between us. 

When: Jun 27 - Aug 15, 2025
Where: Online via Zoom
Facilitator: Philippa Ranby
Cost: Koha / Dana (Guide: $5 - $10 per gathering)

Focusing text: The Gospel of the Beloved Companion

The Gospel of the Beloved Companion includes Mary Magdalene’s account of her vision of the the Great Tree Within, a map of spiritual unfolding into the light and life of Spirit and a guide to Wisdom. The Tree is described as having eight boughs which are thresholds to the manifestation of fruits of the Spirit ~ love and compassion, wisdom and understanding, honour and humility, strength and courage, clarity and truth, potency and healing, light and goodness, grace and beauty.

In this practice circle, each week we'll explore one of the boughs of the Great Tree Within, opening to Mary Magdalane’s sacred teaching.

Participants will receive a Zoom invitation that will be their link to the eight Practice Circle meetings and will be encouraged to join each meeting at 7:55am for an 8:00am start.
