This is a Spiritual and Educational platform. It includes Church Services and Classes. We are friends with the ESC, ISA, BRDNSKY, HOP, SNAPIT, 13 Dragonfly's, NANED, and others.
Through empowering others, we become a source of growth offering direction. As we continue to align ourselves, we learn that the universe does not speak English or any other language but speaks to our spirit. This brings comfort by establishing connections of love, compassion and wisdom throughout all of Nature’s existence. By creating friends and helping each other we can do so much more. We learn harmony and the value of our personhood through sharing and caring. We realize ethics are a part of our spiritual growth. We begin to see we do have obigations to ourselves as well as others. As we continue to create an enviornment that is inclusive of faiths, and beliefs, we find peace and compassion for our fellow humans.

The USCN has established a structure which will provide additional education. We do this by educating the mind and by going into the heart (the life force) of our being. The longest journey ever traveled is from head to heart. The process of aligning our thoughts and emotions can take a lifetime. This is an internal process. We teach spiritual concepts to enhance living. As we learn we realize that to know our self, is where power lies. Through education we expand awareness'.

Workshops
Customs and Symbolism in Biblical Times
This workshop is on demand and Seasonal. Online (Zoom)
It's a study of how customs in Biblical times effect our lives today.
The Israelites believed Prophets spoke to the people from God. Priests: represented the people before God… Kings: established God law.
Metaphors and symbolisms were powerful word tools in the Jewish culture. They gave deeper and concrete meaning to abstract concepts. Most of the symbols and customs used in the Bible are easily recognizable to modern English readers. These influnences are still strong today, and we continue to practice many of these rituals and patterns in our society. This study will show you how this culture impact our lives today.
Bible Literature - Studying human behavior and processes
Bible Literature is about the Human Experience
Liberal biblical scholars have been more inclined than conservative ones to practice literary approaches to the Bible, it is easy to associate those approaches with theological liberalism, but there is no necessary connection between them.
It is the writers of the Bible who gave us a literary Bible, so the origin of the concept can be traced back to them. Several qualities make a text literary, and it is easy to overlook the most basic and universal principle of literature. Literature takes human experience as its subject. When we read a work of literature, we share an experience. Literature is truthful to life and experience and is not primarily a delivery system for an idea. A literary approach to the Bible identifies and relives the human experiences that are portrayed.
Professors who teach literature and creative writing claim that literature shows rather than tells. To "show" is to embody concretely; to "tell" is to express an abstraction or idea. The sixth commandment tells us "you shall not murder." The story of Cain and Abel shows and embodies that truth, and it does so without using the abstraction murder and without commanding us to refrain from it. When the rich young ruler asked Jesus to define neighbor, Jesus instead told a story (the parable of the good Samaritan) that shows us what neighborly behavior looks like. A literary approach to the Bible interacts with the embodied experiences that biblical authors place before us.
Excerpts from:
Leland Ryken (PhD, University of Oregon) served as professor of English at Wheaton College for nearly fifty years.
Bible Literature
I find no discord between what I believe theologically about the Bible and the study of Bible Literature
Respecting the literary aspects of the Bible is a way of observing the biblical authors' intentions.
(Leland Ryken Ph.D.)
Classes have videos, pass outs and e-books for your online library.

It's A Sign - Astrological Insights
Online class- Seasonal (The
wisemen followed the star in the east)
Astronomy and Astrology were viewed as one.
After the 17th century, the two concepts were separated with an important distinction. Astrology and Astronomy were once revered for its insights collectively and in our personal destiny. It was considered helpful in our individual soul’s growth, and it has been integrated into every culture in history. The history of Astronomy and Astrology gives us insight into our deepest desires and destiny. Learn what the ancient knew about these arts as a combinding force.
Classes are available through Zoom and are seasonal.
The Key of Light
Online class- Seasonal
The word Aura's does not appear in the Bible, but the Bible does speak of light, or the Glory of God in many places. Because of scientific advancements we know that our bodies has pathways for transmitting light. These are the same as the meridian pathways used by Acupuncturist. Science has proven that all cells communcate through light emission. Our strongest emmissions of light are through our hands and our head.
This is a unique and detailed class. Classes are available through Zoom
Working with one another around the globe we can unite the world for the changes we want to see.
Workshop-The Essenes
The Essenes - Author and keeper of the Dead Sea Scrolls. The workshop - seasonal - Online
The Essenes - The Sevenfold Path of Peace, derived from the ancient Essene teachings, offers a solid foundation in essential lifestyle philosophies and practices in the art of conscious living. A consciousness based on the core vision of the unity of all life.
The teaching appears in the Zend Avesta of Zoroaster, who translated it into a way of life that was followed for thousands of years. It contains the fundamental concepts of Brahmanism, the Vedas and the Upanishads; and the Yoga systems of India sprang from the same source. Buddha later gave forth essentially the same basic ideas and his sacred Bodhi tree is correlated with the Essene Tree of Life. In Tibet, the teaching once more found expression in the Tibetan Wheel of Life.
The Essenes lived on the shores of lakes and rivers, away from cities and towns, and practiced a communal way of life, sharing equally in everything.
They had no servants or slaves and were said to have been the first people to condemn slavery both in theory and practice. There were no rich and no poor amongst them, both conditions being considered by them as deviations from the Law. They established their own economic system, based wholly on the Law, and showed that all man’s food and material needs can be attained without a struggle, through knowledge of the Law.
The word Essene means healer or ‘therapeutie’, which they were well known for; they healed many people. They knew that disease is created when one deviates from the law of nature. By living in harmony with the Elemental forces and the cycles of nature, health and happiness return.
Dead Sea Scrolls - The Dead Sea Scrolls (also the Qumran Caves Scrolls) are religious manuscripts discovered in 1946/7 at the Qumran Caves, in the West Bank, on the northern shore of the Dead Sea. Dating from the 3rd century BCE to the 1st century CE. The Dead Sea Scrolls are considered to be a keystone in the history of archaeology with great historical, religious, and linguistic significance because they include the oldest surviving manuscripts of entire books later included in the biblical canons.
