Long-time "A Course in Miracles" students and facilitators Dan and Carol Maynard have been hosting this Study Group for a number of years.
The discussions are always vibrant and insightful. And they always seem to touch on just the idea that you need to learn that day!
This is an inspiring experience for those new to the Course as well as those who use the Course as part of the daily life.
A Course in Miracles (also referred to as ACIM or the Course) is a 1976 book by Helen Schucman. The underlying premise is that the greatest "miracle" is the act of simply gaining a full "awareness of love's presence" in one's own life.[1] Schucman claimed that the book had been dictated to her, word for word, via "inner dictation" from Jesus.
No charge. Free will offering welcomed.

ABOUT A Course of Love
A Course of Love is a living course that leads to the recognition, through experience, of the truth of who we really are as human and divine beings a truth much more magnificent than we previously could imagine. In the absence of knowing who we truly are, humans are doomed to continually re-create a world of suffering.
