EASTER 2013
Easter Greetings from B.C.
At the beginning of teaching for ‘The Festival of Easter’ White eagle says:
‘Peace we bring peace to you, we bring heavenly peace, to all our brethren. We come to speak to you from the spirit, from the world of spirit, from the heavenly places we come and as we do so we bring to each soul, the knowledge, the awareness, the consciousness, of the at-one-ment of life’.
How encouraging it is to hear these words each year to lift us up after the dark months of winter. We see the examples of Re birth before us as the flowers come out and the bulbs come out of the ground, re-enforcing the cycles and circles of life, showing us in physical form the constant growth change and maturing of the life cycle. Creating the wonderful positive energy patterns formed from the rain and wind and the sun.
In much the same way our White Eagle work forms circles. As we all sit in our healing circles in our individual healing groups and in turn join in with the greater circle of the work around the world we too are tuning in to the great energy of the universe and forming great chains of light and colour.
All life goes in circles and cycles. White Eagle tells us that, ‘The Redman with whom we have a particular association had a great reverence for the circle. For instance he always sat in a circle round the camp fire, and to him the fire represented the fire of life, the divine fire. He revered all that in nature was of a circular shape - the trunks of trees and all rounded things. When you think of it dear brethren, God himself is a circle, infinite and eternal, alpha and omega, the beginning and the end and the end is the beginning. Think of all life as a circle continuing eternally, and man in the centre.’
We continue on with our work of sending out the light to all humanity in the form of upliftment and healing and the words given so many years ago are just as applicable today as they were then. White Eagle said that his work would be done in small cells scattered around the world and joining like seeds blown in the wind to grow. Easter and Springtime is the festival of this wonderful growth celebrated in so many ways across the world. How wonderful it is to be able to join through the collective consciousness to all work together even if we are many miles apart.
With Love and Light for a very Happy and Glorious Easter Festival,
Ann Force and all at the B.C. Lodge.

EASTER 2012
Greetings from B.C.
After what seems to have been a very long and dark winter in B.C. we look forward to the joyous growth and hopefully the warmth of sunshine very soon.
White Eagle is always there with words of wisdom and joy to lift us up when things get a little dreary. His words given in March of 1943 do a wonderful job of sending his message of hope and life.
“The Secret. In all nature there comes a stirring and a whispering. A strange secret knowledge infects, excites, exalts all living things. The birds have heard it, and sing of it. The tree also, for every twig is bursting to proclaim that secret. The grass, the earth is quickening. The clouds, the winds, the very countryside is ringing … and then the Spring!
A miracle? Of course. All unfolding life is a miracle. Joy of Spring follows after the dullness of winter miraculously. Light challenges and eventually defeats darkness, however strongly darkness be entrenched. Is this a message to the somber heart of man? No less. A message from God, a reaching forth from God, a reminder that God still reigns over His earth and His people? Of course. A pledge of a Spring-time for humanity is dawning which will dispel the bitter days of torment and of terror? Most surely. Let us praise God as do the flowers and winds that caress the trees, and the singing hearts of birds. For praise sets free the abundance of God – praise and worship poured forth without stint. Yes indeed for praise of God is the Secret all the natural creatures know, the Secret that brings forth the magical gift of Spring.”
Excerpts from Angelus, March 1943.
Wishing you all a very blessed Easter and a happy Spring, from us all at the B.C. Lodge.
CHRISTMAS 2011
Our three groups here in B.C. are busy with the Festive activities of the Season. Langley Group had a Gathering on the first week in December, enjoyed by all. We had our Candlelight Service in Surrey on the 11th of December. Everyone was in good voice and pictures were taken. As usual we enjoyed a wonderful Pot Luck Lunch afterwards. Next week we are here in Mission for our special healing service to send out our love to the world.
Sadly Ross Town had a fall and had to go to the hospital for awhile. He is now doing well and is settled in a nursing home where he has lots of company. He is keeping in touch with us in the groups and of course is in our thoughts and prayers.
Happily our family has grown a little in the last year. We hope to welcome others, all are welcome. We are always happy to welcome travelling White Eaglers if you find yourselves in our area, and we look forward to our visit from Hilda from Oz in July.
We look forward to our continuing work as we press on into 2012. We wish you all a very Happy Christmas and all the many Blessings for the future in 2012
AUTUMN 2011
A very warm hello from B.C.
As summer wanes into autumn, we remember the pleasantries of summer; the grain ripening in the fields ready for harvesting, the dappled sunlight through the trees on a cool, sunny afternoon.
As the days grow shorter, many people are sad to see summer fade. The leaves on the trees glow in colour as they turn from green to brilliant red, orange or gold. It is the season of the autumn equinox when all nature starts to slow down for its winter rest before becoming rejuvenated for the Spring.
Many Christian churches throughout the world celebrate the harvest festival. The congregation brings the fruits of the earth; vegetables, nuts and berries and even a bough or two from a colourful tree to decorate the front of the altar. God’s bounty from Mother Earth. The children take part by bringing sheaves of wheat.
In B.C. there are certain parts along the coastline that are rainforest areas. The wildlife is active in the fall; eagles feeding on the salmon, the spirit bears along the Vancouver Island coast forage for food before their winter hibernation. Hibernation comes all too quickly for the black, brown and grizzly bears that we are most fortunate to have on the Pacific coast.
We thank God for the universal brotherhood we have around the world, and to be part of nature and all nature’s habitants. Picture then, all the brethren gathered in the hush of an evening, listening to the wind sough through the trees, knowing we are all under the great canopy of the Great White Spirit.
So as the equinox sun is in Libra, when all nature in our part of the world starts to slow down, we thank God for the brotherhood of all life, for the hush that falls over the earth, for the experiences of life this past year, giving one to another, also reflecting on the year to come as we hold fast in thought and prayer in sending out the Christ Light to all creation.
On September 29th we celebrated the festival of St. Michael and all Angels. The Archangel Michael is one of the Sun spirits, a messenger from the Sun, the sphere of the Cosmic Christ, and the sword that he wields is that of spiritual truth, which Christ places in the hand of every one of his followers. It is a time when the angels from the heavens are drawing very close, breaking through the barriers of darkness and unbelief, bringing the Light to all humankind. So place your hand in the hand of your neighbour, friend, loved one, and know that you are passing on the Light of God.
Peace and love be with you all.
From all at the B.C. Lodge.
