Spirit Cafe on Saturday ~ Who Are We, anyways?

SPIRIT CAFE (AKA Woo-Woo Cafe ;-))) HERE: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/84820870165

by Jennifer Donaldson & the Lighthouse Team

We are excited to announce that we’ll be hosting the next SPIRIT CAFE group conversation on Saturday, December 20th at 11 am EST. What is Spirit Cafe? The leading topic this month will be Who & Where Are We, Anyways? ~ a check-in on what’s evolved for each of us, in terms of how we feel the ascension is going and how we see ourselves as galactic citizens! Yeah, really!!!

Lately, Rob’s channeling of 3i/Atlas (and Linda Dillon’s also & others) have got our team thinking more about this aspect of our ascending identities. Perhaps you, too, are tuning in to a sense that you remember something or resonate with some of the celestial civilizations out there… Have you got a story to share? A recent intuitive experience of knowing you have ET origins? Cosmic family? How is that helping you? 

Sue sent this channeling to us this week, and synchronistically I, Jen, had just started reading Ken Carey’s book The Starseed Transmissions… guess we’re sharing a wave-length! LOL. Written in 1988 – who knew? (Perhaps you have all his books on your bookshelf.) We find things when it’s the best time for them to make sense to us. Personally, I wouldn’t have been able to relate 37 years ago! Ken Carey was way ahead of his time!! Enjoy this read: https://goldenageofgaia.com/2025/12/16/ken-carey-return-of-the-bird-tribes-chapter-one/

ANYWAYS… how are you doing? And have you been connecting to some of the fascinating channelings from and about Galactic Beings posted more often these days? We are really interested in the Arcturians! So much to learn and be excited about… and through something like Spirit Cafe, we can truly support each other.

SO— BRING your favorite cuppa and gather with us for a great conversation on Saturday!! We can’t wait to see you. Join us on Zoom at 11am EST on December 20th  https://us02web.zoom.us/j/84820870165

Love,

Jennifer, Sue, Rob, Martin, Adrienne and Roxanne

Our next adventure beckons…

A Gathering of Hearts, Healing, and Higher Purpose – by Jennifer Donaldson

We warmly welcome you to this month’s SPIRIT CAFE—a sacred space for sharing, reflection, and soul-deep conversation. Join us for an hour Saturday, Oct. 18 at 11 AM EDT as we come together in community to explore the themes that are calling to us.

LINK for SPIRIT CAFE here :-)))

This month, our topic emerges from two meaningful currents in our collective journey:

  1. Many of us are experiencing loss, grief, or inner crisis—the kind that asks us to stop, breathe, and feel deeply – and accept the love offered by our friends & family.
  2. As we prepare for our upcoming webinar, The Bridge to Nova Earth — a gathering designed to guide us into the next chapter of co-creation and conscious living, often the grace we need to go through the changes can be elusive.

So we ask:
How do we lovingly let go of the deepest attachments— people, roles, beliefs —not in despair, but in reverence?
And can that emptiness that feels like loss become the still point, the fertile ground for a life more aligned with our soul’s promise?

Together– introduced in this week’s SPIRIT CAFE … and then developed fully in our upcoming BRIDGE to NOVA EARTH 2 hour webinar with charts, visuals, exercises, channeling and more —

we’ll explore how loss can be an invitation…
An invitation to new beginnings, new relationships, and new dimensions of being — within ourselves and upon this blessed planet home.

Let us meet in the space between letting go and becoming.
Let us build the bridge to Nova Earth -in unity-

hand in hand, step by step, eye to eye, one smile after another.

Thank You for visiting with us… ❤ ❤ ❤ We really appreciate Your Light!

Light Will Not Fail

Portland Head Light through the sumac, September 2025, by Jennifer Donaldson

My friends, how are you doing? Many Light-workers and Love-holders report being particularly exhausted lately. Sensitivity to the world’s pain can drain our energy very quickly. Compassion for all that the planet is going through can stretch our spirits very thin.

Here is a way to refresh your weary heart: by taking a break rather than doing more, with easing up rather than trying so hard, with choosing peace rather than focusing more on the chaos, with a daily hour outdoors soaking up the color, the beauty, the inspiring design of our natural world.

I love to walk in a nearby park along the rocky edge of the ocean, breathing in the dee deep blue of the ocean, and the refreshing oxygen and presence of the trees. Then I find a bench and sit for a while with what is strong, enduring and grounding, the cliffs crowned by this beautiful Lighthouse.

Where are those special places in your part of the world? How can you take loving care of yourself in the midst of change? How can you rise through exhaustion to holding the excitement about the beautiful life in 5-D that is now open for everyone?

Our Lighthouse team has been sharing thoughts about this in preparation for our monthly SPIRIT CAFE coming up this Saturday- the 20th.

SPIRIT CAFE will be open again for an hour of conversation and a short meditation or channeling, on Saturday September 20th at 11 am EDT (Eastern USA.) Come for community, insight and more fascinating conversation about All Things Spiritual. 

NOTE: we have a new LINK.

This month our team – all of us are Council of Love teachers & coaches – will open a discussion on-line on the topic of Lightworker exhaustion vs optimism.  Why are many feeling disheartened while others feel stronger than ever, full of hope and energy…. What is going on?

Linda Dillon, our mentor and founder of the Council of Love, with our angels & ascended masters, are constantly expanding our understanding through strategic, informative classes and seasonal events. Because of this great resource, many of us have bonded into a strong & supportive community, filled with hope for Nova Gaia.

Spirit Cafe is inspired by the Council of Love. Please join us this month! We’d love to see you. Everyone is most welcome.

Spirit Cafe on the third Saturday!

Dear Friends ~ The Lighthouse team want to announce that our popular and beloved monthly hour of SPIRIT CAFE is moving from the second Saturday each month to the THIRD SATURDAY from now on….

So that means, our next CAFE will be on August 16th! Always at 11 Eastern (New York) time, we have recently ADDED an extra 15 minutes to our hour, for anyone who wants to stay for a channeled message from one of our favorite Ascended Masters or a guided healing meditation using the COL (Council of Love) tools we have learned to disperse negativity and amplify Love.

Sue, our Host, is very welcoming and keeps an eye on the time and encourages plenty of participation, and Martin leads the guided meditations. Jen and Rob and Roxanne are all ready to offer a channeling to lift the topic to a higher level.

We are always happy to see you, and if you have never come, please join us, you are always welcome!! In our two years on Zoom we have covered many fascinating spiritual topics and shared valuable insights from all of our diverse perspectives as spiritual beings living human lives on the ascending Planet Earth at this amazing time.

Trust, Surrender & Allow with SPIRIT CAFE

By Rob Loveland

Join ZOOM HERE!

Saturday June 14th at 11 am (Eastern time)

This last month in our channeling sessions the guidance of Trust, Surrender & Allow kept coming up. No matter what is happening in the turmoil around us, one or all of those choices will serve us best, individually or collectively. Here is the guidance that I got from AA Uriel on Trust, Surrender, and Allow.

AA Uriel: I’d like to add one point. So this group, this circle, is fond of reciting the expression to “Trust, Surrender and Allow.” I’d like to touch on the difference between surrender and allow.  Of course, behind it all, in order to operate from this position of being in physicality, but fulfilling your portion of the divine plan, requires a tremendous amount of Trust. 

You are trusting that even if you do not see the plan in its entirety, you know that it is there, and it is for the highest good of yourself and all involved. But the idea of surrender is simply you acknowledging, while in physical form, that you are not going to stand in the way.  You are surrendering yourself to the higher plan based on that trust. 

Whereas, Allowing says that you are not going to put anything in the way, that you are not going to erect any obstacles in the way, based most likely on your own ego’s perceptions of what is the right thing to do. That can be difficult to discern, we acknowledge. But as always, go into your heart and ask for guidance on what is the best for all concerned. And when you feel it, then you will know. I think that is enough for now. Thank you so much.

And thank You, Archangel Uriel!

There is no question that change is happening in all facets of our lives, in our relationships and in society … and it can be very unsettling. The real question is how are we dealing with it? Or, better yet, as lightworkers, how are we putting ourselves in the right energy to transition to the new world where unity consciousness, compassion and concern for the common good prevail?

In our view, the answer lies in:

Trust, that all is happening according to Divine Plan;

Surrender, put aside our own ego’s desire to dictate the outcome and control how it unfolds;

Allow, determine not to put up any obstacles in the unfoldment of that Plan.

Please join us for our next Spirit Cafe, more info on SPIRIT CAFE, where we will explore these ideas and share how each of us are doing this … or using other methods. How are you putting yourself in a space of creating the new? This will be exciting ~ See you on Saturday ( 11 am New York time…)

JOIN HERE!

All Love from the Spirit CAFE team: Sue, Rob, Adrienne, Roxanne, Martin & Jennifer!

SPIRIT CAFE SATURDAY May 10th: Collective Grief and Transition

Dear Friends, we are looking forward to another SPIRIT CAFE this Saturday, at 11 AM Eastern time, for our monthly conversation from the spiritual perspective. in our personal lives, there have been several deaths, real grieving, and much reflection on the larger aspects of transitioning from our old world, and ways of doing things, into Nova Earth, a collective experience we are creating. In other words, we are all experiencing a kind of death on some level, we are all in a stage of transition, so we will be exploring that this coming Saturday in our hour-long group conversation. You are very welcome to join us. Here’s

the zoom LINK: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/81970023054

and more info: SPIRIT CAFE ~cU next: May 10th

AND— Here is part of last week’s group channeling session in which Yeshua/Jeshua speaks on this topic.

Jen: We are wanting to understand more about this grieving process and the value of grieving and the purpose of grieving to help us transition into Nova Gaia, in all her glory, into creating all that we’re going to be creating. Is grieving the first step?

Yeshua (via Jen): This is Yeshua. I am first to come forward to make a commentary on this. I am glad to be here tonight with all of you. It is our great pleasure to listen in and hear your musings and your wonderings and your Insights, and we are very pleased to be invited to elaborate, in brief.

My insight is that, yes, it is important to go through the grieving for there to be welcomed in a new life. When there has been a loss of the old, whether it was a relationship, a loved one, or a stage of your life, there is a period where there is grieving. There are tears, when you realize you will not see these ones again. There are tears and there is uncertainty and there is all manner of emotion: denial, irritation.

Anger does not have to be always full blown rage. Sometimes it is irritability, but it is an important stage when you have reached the end of one road, one path, one adventure, one stage of life, and you are moving into a new one.

And this is happening collectively. This is the first time in a very long time in which you as a humanity, as humanity, are stepping forward into the new, leaving the old behind. And it is a very important passageway. It is a ritual, a rite of passage. And it has its recurrences, and it has its experience, which is common to all of you, although you will not all feel it simultaneously.

All of you are feeling, consciously or unconsciously, levels of this grieving, and so it is a part of things. It is a root of the anger being shown on your planet at this time. It is certainly a root of the denial. It is the clinging to the past. It is the romanticizing how good the past was, when, in fact, continued life is full of promise, full of wonder and new, unimagined experience, which will be fantastic in many ways. You see? Why look backward and go, “Oh, but we are so close”?

Jennifer is continually being given this image of the graduation. When one is together with a small group of people, and one becomes very, very close, and you are nearing the final months of being together, you have been together for years, and you’re very bonded, and there is a form of grieving which is experienced. And there is the sense of lostness and not knowing what the new will be when you are then parted. You’ve had your hugs and your tears and all of this. It is very similar to what is happening now on the Earth.

And some of you are graduating, and some of you are just starting high school, but this is fine. There is a bit of a continuum, but you are all still embarking on this great adventure together, and it is definitely a part of it.

Thank you for letting me participate. Thank you for inviting me.”

WILL SPRING EVER COME? by Jennifer Donaldson

Mother Mary and Buddha in a March snow bank

Saturday at 11 am EST!

JOIN Host Sue Scofield and friends for a rousing discussion of what’s new, what’s growing, and where we might find some joy…Spring is on the horizon! We may not see it yet, it’s certainly bleak and cold in the North still, but somewhere, somewhere, the crocuses are peeking up and daffodils stretching their stalks, lifting their heads, and opening their countenances after the long winter’s nap.

Maybe we just need to “trust, surrender and allow”, maybe we just need to HOPE, or just believe in the cycles of nature to carry us forward into a brighter, more energizing season. Even if we don’t believe in the Divine Mother, embodied as Terra-Gaia, She Still Is. The ancient saying from the Oracle at Delphi goes: Bidden or not bidden, God is present.

So, apart from our perceptions of what’s going on “out there”, there is a “Ground of Being” that sustains us, that shares energy with us. And what is energy but love? What would life be like if we saw everything – Everything – as an expression of Love? Jeshua once said to me : “All Love is energy, all energy is Love.” It may not always express itself as the highest version of itself… “Darkness is only energy that has lost up to 97% of its light.” And the light is coming back, as it does every Spring… Thoughts? How do you feel? What gives you energy when you’re feeling low?

These are the musings and wonderings, the kind of sharing of our heart-minds that we play in on Saturdays when our team holds a Spirit Cafe (every 2nd Saturday). It’s that time again! Won’t you consider dropping in?

Next Spirit Cafe, Sat. 11 Jan 2025

The December 2024 Spirit Cafe discussion focused on Joy, and remarkably we spent the entire hour on that one topic — normally, we start with one topic and then meander wherever spirit seems to take us.  But Joy is such a rich topic, one that everyone wants to experience, we just couldn’t leave it!  After all, who couldn’t use more joy in their life?!

We discussed that while happiness and joy are related, there is a difference.  After hearing the wisdom of so many, I arrived at the conclusion that happiness is the temporary, outward expression of the more permanent, inward experience of Joy.  Got it.

Then, we talked about how feeling gratitude is a gateway to joy.  So, that got me thinking … how are happiness and gratitude related to joy and love?  Of course, being a nerd at heart, I was reminded of Star Wars Master Yoda’s assertion about Love’s opposite, Fear:

Fear leads to hate.

Hate leads to anger.

Anger leads to suffering.

So, perhaps there is an analogous progression for joy … and this is what I came up with:

Happiness leads to gratitude.

Gratitude leads to love.

Love leads to joy.

I’m happy with that! … and I’m so grateful to be part of the Spirit Cafe discussions among such loving souls.  Won’t you consider joining us for the next Spirit Cafe on Saturday, 11 January 2025, for more joyous opportunities of learning, community, and fun?!

It’s not just the camaraderie, it’s also the way we spur each on to find the highest perspective, the one that makes your heart zing and eases life’s tensions. I always feel like I’m walking on air after one of our CAFE conversations!
