Spirit Messages! A special 90-minute benefit edition - Sun. July 20

Sun. July 20
6:30 - 8:00pm
$25

Join Brenda for the first Spirit Message gathering in a year! All of the proceeds from this event will be donated to Shalini Latour to support our dear friend while she recovers from her foot surgery.

When loved ones pass on to the spirit plane, they never really leave us. As a matter of fact, they often are quite in tune with the state of our hearts here on earth, and are looking for the opportunity to connect with us once again to share their sweet, wise and sometimes hilarious advice!

Because of the length of the evening, there will be a 10 minute break, during which you may leave if need be. And as always, the door will be locked promptly at 6:30pm.
