Your financial generosity has the power to make a positive difference in people’s lives now and into the future. CREATING A LEGACY Ways to Give to the Redondo Beach Center for Spiritual Living Your financial generosity has the power to make a positive difference in people’s lives now and into the future. While many give through cash, checks, or credit card offerings during services, there are additional ways to contribute that may also provide tax benefits. Here are some options: 1. Give Through Your IRA If you are 70½ or older, you can donate directly from your IRA. This can help lower your taxable income by exempting the donated amount from taxes. The IRS allows up to $105,000 in tax-free charitable donations through qualified charitable distributions. 2. Gifts of Stock & Appreciated Securities Instead of cash, you can donate appreciated stocks, bonds, or mutual fund shares. This allows you to claim a federal income tax deduction on the full appreciated value while avoiding capital gains tax. 3. Donor Advised Fund Contributions If you have a donor advised fund (DAF), you can direct a contribution to RBCSL, making it part of your charitable giving plan. 4. Bequests in Your Will or Trust Consider including RBCSL in your Will or Trust to create a lasting impact. You can designate a specific amount, a percentage of your estate, or what remains after other obligations are met. This option is flexible and can be adjusted as needed. 5. Life Insurance Gifts You can name RBCSL as the beneficiary of an existing life insurance policy, allowing your contribution to extend far beyond your original investment. We recommend consulting with your financial advisor or accountant for guidance on processing gifts through retirement and financial accounts. Tax ID: 95-2022930. Thank you for your support! For questions or to discuss giving options, please contact us.

Dive into the foundational principles and transformative teachings shaping our spiritual community in Redondo Beach, California. Discover the power of positive thinking, spiritual growth, and holistic well-being. Join us in embracing the wisdom of New Thought at redondocsl.org/what-is-new-thought. WHAT IS NEW THOUGHT Despite its name, New Thought isn't actually new. New Thought tradition originated in the 1880s and draws inspiration from the philosophical idealism of Classical Greece and the Transcendentalist Movement of the 1830s. It's origins go back to classical Greek philosophy and P. P. Quimby, the founder of New Thought, even claimed that the movement had rediscovered Jesus' healing methods. New Thought combines philosophical idealism with a practical focus on addressing humanity's challenges and promoting healing. Throughout its history, New Thought has been shaped by influential figures such as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Thomas Troward, Emma Curtis Hopkins, Phineas Quimby, and Walt Whitman. Present-day authors who embody New Thought teachings include Michael Bernard Beckwith, Deepak Chopra, Wayne Dyer, Byron Katie, Caroline Myss, Gregg Braden, Eckhart Tolle, and many others. The teachings of New Thought encompass the wisdom of various spiritual traditions across time. Our community welcomes individuals from all spiritual paths and those who are seeking a spiritual path of their own. We embrace the ancient wisdom of diverse spiritual traditions as we strive to create a nurturing space for everyone.

"Discover our dedicated practitioners at Redondo Center for Spiritual Living. Explore their expertise and commitment to supporting personal growth and spiritual well-being. Connect with our compassionate community in Redondo Beach, California at redondocsl.org/practitioners." Practitioners Finding Inspiration in Every Turn A Practitioner is a person of high spiritual consciousness and deep understanding, trained in the study of the Science of Mind and “Treatment.” Treatment is the art, science, and skill of Affirmative Prayer. Practitioners are dedicated to the cause of helping others, licensed to practice professionally, and bound by a high code of ethics to respect your privacy. Meet The Team Mail 310-379-6653 Patti Donnelly Mail 310-972-1828 Annie Hofmann Donovan Mail 310-373-7288 Maureen McKinney Mail 310-819-2524 Marc Ruth Mail 310-292-7900 Monica Ruth Mail 310-938-1938 Bernice Slocovich Mail 310-344-8143 Elaine Yuzuke Professional Practitioner Services Contact the Center for Spiritual Living Redondo Beach to make an appointment with a practitioner, or connect with a practitioner after Sunday service, either for a full appointment or a One Minute Miracle. A full appointment is more interactive with the practitioner in order to discover more about the belief that is causing disharmony. Each practitioner comes from a loving space of nonjudgment and confidentiality. What Is Affirmative Prayer? The use of Affirmative Prayer (sometimes referred to as a “Spiritual Mind Treatment” or just “Treatment”) in our daily lives gives us the privilege of choosing the direction of our thoughts, so we are in harmony with a Power greater than we are, and brings our experience out of the darkness of limitation. It is a very powerful tool used to change one’s thoughts, one’s beliefs, and one’s experiences in a positive way. Do I Need a Practitioner? Practitioners are dedicated to the cause of helping others, licensed to practice professionally, and bound by a high code of ethics to respect your privacy. Ask yourself the following questions: Am I too close to my own problem to see the situation clearly? Do I feel that something is blocking that which I am seeking? Do I feel that I lack the experience with, the training in, or the understanding of the Science of Mind principles necessary to resolve the difficulty? If any of these questions can be answered “Yes,” a Practitioner can be very beneficial and helpful to you. FAQs Once I decide to seek the services of a practitioner, what do I do next? When you have decided to seek the services of a Practitioner, you can help by trusting the process: Have faith in the Mind of God. It is Omnipotent and It does the work. Contemplate your challenge and get clear on what you want to accomplish in consciousness. Release your problem by giving it to your Practitioner. Be ready to move forward in consciousness and accept a healing. Endeavor to keep a positive attitude. Be expectant, accepting every good thing as part of your demonstration. Be thankful. Give thanks for the wonderful change that is taking place in your life. Do I need to be present in order for Affirmative Prayer to work? No. Affirmative Prayers are just as effective if the Practitioner is in your presence, on the telephone, or on the other side of the world. There is only One Mind: One Infinite Intelligence and that Mind is everywhere present. Can I do Affirmative Prayer for myself? Yes. The Practitioner will also assist you in the process and correct use of Affirmative Prayer. For example, the following simple Affirmative Prayer alone can raise your consciousness and your level of acceptance of good in your life, "There is One Universal Life, and I am unified with It. I declare that within this Divine Life, there is all that I need for a healthy, happy, prosperous life. I accept this good gladly, turning away from any appearance to the contrary. In deep gratitude I give thanks – I let go and let God. And so it is." After I receive the services of a practitioner, what can I do to assist in the manifestation of my good? Have faith in the healing power of the “Spirit within”. Use the Affirmative Prayer given to you by the Practitioner as many times as necessary every day. Focus on your desired outcome. Keep a positive attitude. Be grateful. Give heartfelt thanks, knowing the wonderful changes that are taking place in your life. Why is there a cost to work with a practitoner? Practitioners have taken at least 3 years of Science of Mind classes. They have done their own spiritual work and continue to invest in themselves. They are professionals and their experience, knowledge, skills, and time are valued. Recognize that treatment work is never withheld because of an inability to pay. Simply explain to the Practitioner, and ask for work in the area of prosperity so that you can start to heal that and be in a stable financial condition.
