Content: Subjects that fall under the Science, Philosophy or Religion of Spiritualism.

Subject Matter: A short disclaimer may be read out by the Platform Chairperson prior to the Address/Lecture stating that contents of the Address/Lecture are offered as the Lecturer's personal opinions and may not necessarily be indorsed by Spiritualism.

Spirit Messages Duration: Twenty- Five (25) to Thirty (30) Minutes. The Chairperson will call time.

Do's and Don'ts: It would be considered highly unethical to share messages of a personal, private or embarrassing nature with recipients. Forecasting and predictions (especially of a forthcoming death) are forbidden. Only evidential messages from a recognized Spirit entity by the recipient should be given, and confirmation by the recipient sought and acknowledged. Therefore, Reincarnation and Past Lives can not be considered as evidential and should not be presented from the Platform.

Platform Attire: Men: Business Attire. Suit and tie or Slacks/Jacket Tie.
                Women: Business Attire. Dress, Skirt and Blouse, or                        Business Slacks.

Books: If you are an author of Spiritualism, you may bring your book(s) or CD's and arrange for Book Signing after the service. It is customary that a percentage be donated to the Church.

Bio for Introduction: Please furnish a brief yet substantial bio relating to your background in Spiritualism in order for the Chairperson to introduce you properly. (You can email it to us so that it can be placed in our Platform Bio book.)

Light Refreshments are served following the Closing Prayer.
