The Light & Sound Healing Ministry and Center
‘A Church Dedicated to Spiritual Healing & Lightworkers Around the World’
DATE February 8, 1999 (Updated September 16, 2000)
FROM: Tony Mulberg, Spiritual Director
RE: Pre-Clergy Course Outline and Steps to Ordination
It is with great pleasure that I provide you with information about our course of study leading to clergy ordination into the Light and Sound Healing Ministry. Completion of the steps to ordination are designed to enhance your natural healing abilities; to help prepare you for the many forthcoming earth changes and spiritual opportunities; and to assist in preparing you to complete your spiritual mission of healing service to others via body, mind and spirit. Ordination is also an important step to leadership within this ministry and provides ordained clergy members greater opportunities to serve in or start their own congregations.
Our planet is going through great transition, as we approach the new millennium. Everywhere we turn, we hear predictions and prophecy about our future. Where is the truth to be found amongst all of the rhetoric? The message is clear - we must go to that Temple Within, to meet and know the God within. We must learn to discern the Divine Truth by listening to that Still Small Voice Within. This is the Message of the Voice of the Divine - manifesting as the Light and Sound of God!
Please review the following course outline and proposed plan of study. Please understand that course changes or adjustments are likely to be made during the year, as additional guidance is provided and the direction of the Light and Sound Healing Ministry unfolds. If you have any questions, please call me directly and toll-free at (877) 946-2455.
With Light and Love,
Tony Mulberg, Spiritual Director
