Join us for a fun day at Maker Faire with dinner afterwards!

Maker Faire is a fun and interactive fair where exhibitors come to show their imaginative creations (from a wide variety of genres) and share their experiences!

For more information, check out their website:http://MakerFaire.com

Maker Faire consists of over 900 “tech enthusiasts, crafters, educators, tinkerers, hobbyists, engineers, science clubs, authors, artists, students, and commercial exhibitors” who will be sharing their artistic creations and talking about their processes. Most of the booths / exhibits are interactive!

It is a ton of fun for people of all ages, so this is an Affinity “Family Inclusive” event. Anyone of any age is welcome, so bring your family and friends!

Tickets are $24 for adults, $16 for students (with our discount). Order tickets online here:http://makerfaire2013.eventbrite.com

Get 20% off with our discount code:MFBA13Group. This code is only good if you buy the tickets online. Tickets are cheaper online than if you order at the gate, so don’t wait!

Healing 101 Lecture Series – “Time is Not a Factor in Your Life” by David Hohle, CSB @ Pacific School of Religion
Apr 4 @ 7:30 pm – 9:00 pm

David Hohle, CSBMonday, April 4 – 7:30 p.m. PDT

Time is Not a Factor in Your Life
David Hohle, CSB – from Chicago, Illinois

Pacific School of Religion – (PSR 6)
1798 Scenic Ave, Berkeley, CA 94709
PSR Campus Map and Directions

This talk explores how we can begin to gain spiritual freedom from limitation associated with time and age.  Time is a constant in physics, but totally disappears in metaphysics.  Time measures matter, but divine Mind or spiritual consciousness is immeasurable and infinite.  This talk distinguishes between time and timelessness, age and agelessness, and encourages freedom from mortal limitations associated with time by understanding more about the spiritual nature of life. This understanding leads to more freedom, more productivity, and more harmony.

Christie’s motivation in her healing ministry and lecturing is the “aha moment” that comes as we catch even a glimpse of God’s great power.  “I love the undeniable feeling of security, health, and peace that comes when I listen for guidance from God,” Christie explains, “and my greatest joy is sharing this with others.”
