A.G.M Highlights:

Our Annual General Member's Meeting was held on Sunday, January 25th, 2026 via Zoom. At the meeting members discussed matters pertaining to our church. The President (Michael Davies) welcomed new members to the church, and thanked Janine Russell, Tanya Soper, Patsy McGowan and Chris Gunn for their service as Board members for the past 12 months. Michael also thanked all those people who had generously given their time to help with lectures and mediumship at our Sunday services.

During the meeting it was agreed to hold a Zoom conference every quarter with all church members being invited to discuss updates and ideas with suggestions for the church. The next meeting will be in April 2026. Members will be notified by email with the date and Zoom link prior to the meeting.

For the foreseeable future the church will continue to hold weekly Sunday services and Tuesday Circles via Zoom. It is, however, hoped that at some time in the future in-person events will be possible once again.

From: Red Cloud Speaks - through Estelle Roberts All life is vibration. The most inanimate article has life. Take this desk, for instance, it is a vibrating matter. Nothing is dead, you have decay, but when you use the word decay, remember that it is just a breaking down process. Death does not exist from the very smallest atom in matter to the very highest in vibration. In this new year we see so many changes, not only to our weather expectations but to life itself with all that is around us. We tend to reminisce and dwell in the past, especially as we grow older, but in all history the Earth, Universe and beyond has gone through many changes. From the disappearance of the Dinosaurs, Ice ages  and the changing of land borders, we have been aware that the time comes every so many thousands of years when the poles change and life changes with that very occurrence.

Today science is coming more into agreement  with our Spiritualist beliefs that all life is vibration and that what was told by people like Edgar Casey in the altered state of consciousness, is now becoming our reality. We just have to look at past history to understand why as nations we are so different, even though we now  share countries together. Scotland was once a part of Viking culture but through the changes was thrust towards England and became a part of our society, even though quite different.

Science and religion tells us about these changes and how we as Spiritual beings are merely passing through a learning period on the physical plane and have taken on a clothing of physical matter so as to ensure our passage through this earthly life. That physical matter will eventually decay and die, but the Spirit/Soul is free to continue its eternal journey through the next level of consciousness.  Matter is left behind for the physical world and life continues to the next stage of our learning in the Higher vibrations of the Spirit world.

Science has long had it's disagreements with the teaching of Spiritualism, but now is becoming to realize that we are a vibration, energy that cannot be destroyed, but just changes it's consciousness, retaining its physical appearance at first before moving on into higher levels of learning and progression of the Soul.

The older religions have over two thousand years given us some clues as to life beyond the earth plane, but yet there are still too many people who are misguided through some teachings. The young are looking for different ways of expressing their religious beliefs  and often dance to their new musical music, punching the air. However, dancing goes back to Rumi and the Sufi's where they danced themselves into an altered state of being. They were condemned by their religion for being different, just as Spiritualism has over many years had its fair share of negativity thrown at it.

Let us all now come to that realization that "we cannot die for the life of us" and continue to live in the truth of realism, knowing that science is catching up, but reality is the voice of Spiritualism.
