Your new life begins with a new thought.
Community
New Thought Philadelphia is a loving Community of Spirit & service.
- Spirit is our awareness of our connection to the Infinite - the creative Power that has created everything, and continues to create.
- Service is the way that we channel that Power to bring more good into the lives of those around us.
- Self denotes our personal, individual capacity to embody that Power. We are each a balance of Spirit & service bringing Love into our lives.
Each individual in our group is on encouraged to share the passions, joys and insight that are part of his or her path with others. We do this through our public Celebrations and programs, educational activities like classes & workshops, and through volunteer activities that support New Thought Philadelphia and others in the larger community around us.
It's also fun, with small groups that meet for social, recreational and adventure activities. Want a spiritual group for hiking, or scuba diving, or knitting, or dinner? Start one - we'll help!

Life Visioning
Life Visioning was created by Rev. Dr. Michael Beckwith, founder of the Agape International Spiritual Center in Los Angeles. The process is described in his book "Life Visioning" and several other publications that area available in our online store. New Thought Philadelphia also offers a six-week class on the Life Visioning process.
Our Statement on Moving Beyond White Supremacy
Members of our Community began weekly gatherings in June 2020 to gain insight on how we can support our nation in ending the racial divide that has plagued us. The process began with a series of Life Visioning exercises, to invite Spirit to guide us in our activities.
The group continued with a set of action steps to bring our new intentions to life. The first is this Statement on moving beyond the consciousness of White Supremacy.

When You Feel Joy, God Feels Joy. When You Feel Pain, God Feels Joy.
