Emissaries of Divine Light 


The Emissaries of Divine Light, British Columbia are part of an International network of people whose primary purpose is to encourage the experience and expression of divine identity.  Emissaries of Divine Light is a community of people dedicated to serving within a larger spiritual body, stewarding the collective purpose of the divine on earth.  As stated below in the mission statement of the Emissaries, an Emissary is one who is "assisting in carrying forward" - a work of spiritual healing/awakening.  Their mission statement is:

“To assist in carrying forward a work of Spiritual regeneration of humanity,
under the inspiration of the Spirit of God, and in the advancement thereof.”


In the late seventies, EDL was changed from a British Columbia Society operating as a non-profit to a federally registered charity.  The charity is governed by an elected Board of Directors (shown at left).

EDL, B.C. is made up of many individuals living throughout British Columbia and the Yukon.  There are more identifiable communities located in Abbotsford ( Edenvale ), 100 Mile House ( The Lodge ), and Whitehorse, Yukon ( Hodiyin ). Each community has a unique quality that brings forth a shared purpose.

The Four Functions of EDL, B.C. are described below :




COMMUNITY


Each community in British Columbia and the Yukon, whether residential or virtual, share the committment to live creatively and responsibly, guided by the wisdom of Source.

The first community developed in British Columbia was the 100 Mile House Lodge, the home of one of the Emissary founders Martin Cecil.  Over the years the remaining communities developed throughout B.C., each unique and fluid in size and duration — growing, contracting and changing according to the needs of spirit.





ATTUNEMENT


Attunement as practiced by The Emissaries is a form of vibrational alignment and healing which evolved out of work begun in 1929 by Lloyd Meeker.  This approach acknowledges that each of us is a combination of human
physical substance drawn from the earthand being, the invisible, animating life force.  Inherent in Being is unlimited energy and purpose coming from Source.  Attunement is a process of clarifying and deepening our connection with Being and Source, despite physical, mental or emotional impediments.  We see attunement as a vital component of the spiritual renaissance emerging in the world today.




SPIRITUAL EDUCATION


The Emissaries support and sponsor programs, seminars, workshops and conferences which foster spiritual awakening and expression, and develop leadership.  Each community in B.C. and the Yukon offer different educational programs and classes.

The Emissary courses that are offered are Journey Into the Fire ( description below ), The Opening, The Deepening Spiritual Expression and Spiritual Leadership.  Emissary teaching and philosophy are available in books, booklets, audio and videotapes.  Please contact EDL B.C. at (604) 856-9401 or (604) 856-3388 for availability.

Journey Into the Fire Event

“What would be possible if you could step into the fire of your being?”

 
“Can the reality of who we truly are emerge in the world?  Is there a way to use every relationship, every job--in fact, everything we do—as a means to let our inner being become more real to us and those around us?

This program is designed for those just starting on their journey of discovery; those who’ve been on their path for a while and are looking for new stimulation; those who’ve been sitting in the same place and are feeling stuck; or those who are already there and want to increase the intensity of their experience.

 For two days, we safely take you as deep as you want to go.”

These words are from the brochure for the new weekend event, “Journey Into the Fire, created this year at Sunrise Ranch.  This event has been presented twice, with enthusiastic response.  Journey Into the Fire” will be offered at Edenvale Conference & Retreat Centre in Abbotsford BC, from 7:00 pm Friday, March 30th to 5:30 pm Sunday,  April 1st, 2007.

 Costs:  $450.00 Residential (includes accommodation and meals)

            $350.00 Commuter (includes lunches and dinners)

WORSHIP


candle Worship
of God, Source, Beingis a natural expression of those who know Universal Spirit as the essence of themselves.  Equally natural is the compulsion to join with others in worship, praise, prayer and thankfulness. Emissaries in B.C. and the Yukon convene services that clothe this impulse using innovative forms of worship, and draw from a variety of inspirational sources.
