SEDONA INDUCTION September 24-25, 2010. Induction and consecration Ceremony into the Community of The Mystic Heart was held in Sedona, Arizona. Twenty-seven new members joined in person or in absentia. The event featured two days of workshops, open house, discussion and dialogue, followed by afternoon and evening Induction ceremonies on September 25th. These were held at a landmark site centered in the middle of Sedona's beautiful valley, "Sanctuary of the Companions", now a "House" of the Order of Universal Interfaith, the umbrella network for CMH.

ABOUT JOINING CMH l. You can join CMH by attending an Induction Ceremony in person or in absentia. In the interim period of induction ceremonies, you can join CMH as noted on the JOIN US page of this website. 2. In absentia members will have future opportunities to participate in the induction and consecreation ceremony 3. Joining CMH as a member differs from also seeking ordination through OUnI. If you are joining the CMH and want to evaluate your status for ordination through OUnI on June 20th (as Interfaith/ Interspiritual Minister or Wisdom Keeper) contact thminer@ouni.org or jaleone@ouni.org. They will evaluate your status with regard to this option 4. As you will also learn by contacting us further with regard to 1-3, above, you will also need to go to www.ouni.org, click on Join and fill out the questionnaire there provided; this is a formality required by District of Columbia with regard to CMH/OUnI being membership-based religious associations. 5. We encourage you to let friends and colleagues know about these opportunities. Please contact kurtjohnsonisd@yahoo.com with any further questions. Thanks so much!
