REPORT ON THE OCTOBER MONTHLY MEETING

Sincere apologies to Janice as this event was reported on by Leila Carpenter (see below) but failed to reach our webmaster.

AN EVENING OF MEDIUMSHIP WITH JANICE BROOK.

The monthly meeting for October was great fun as we had with us Janice Brook and as always her right hand Sandra, who works fast and diligently writing all the brilliant messages that Janice gives. As usual Janice was a bundle of fun, such energy she gives to her work, it was wonderful. Names, places and such detailed pieces of information for the receiver, that there is no doubt whatsoever who the recipient is. For example, “a chip in Mum’s favourite ornament that was thought to have been a secret”, but of course Mum knew about it all the time! We cannot have secrets from spirit can we? Everyone was so pleased with their messages and they went away very happy. Janice herself gets great pleasure as a Medium and therefore hopes that her audience does also. Yes Janice, we get great pleasure at having you with us, and await eagerly your next visit. Let us make sure that it is not as long as last time as you believed it has been a year since your last came to MSDC.
A big thankyou to you both.

MONTHLY MEETING REPORT: An Evening of Mediumship with Darren Brittain

November’s monthly meeting was very special as we were fortunate enough to have with us the excellent Medium Darren Brittain. Darren is always a favourite and the meeting is always full to capacity, and as usual he did not fail to inspire us all with amazing detailed information from spirit. Darren has been a Medium for nineteen years now. One of his aims is to tell as many people as possible who will listen, that there is life after death, but also knowing that people will believe what they want to believe, and that is also ok. Darren’s messages were wonderful. The information he gave was so correct, even down to street and town names, let alone the personal information describing details of the family members and friends who have passed over. Darren also has a great sense of humour which always makes for a special evening. Just want to say Darren, many, many thanks for being with us again, and we look forward to seeing you again in 2010 with great anticipation.
Thank you from MSDC.

SEPTEMBER REPORT FOR M.S.D.C's MONTHLY MEETING

What a great evening we had last night at MSDC’s monthly meeting at Maplesden Noakes. We were fortunate enough to have Mary Smith as our visiting Medium. Mary comes from a family of natural psychics and discovered her “Gift” as a child. She then went on to develop her gift and trained for many years to obtain the high standard that we saw last night. Mary is a vibrant, enthusiastic Medium who laughs while delivering her messages and she was a joy to see. She was very accurate giving many, many names which always makes the receiver very happy. The time went so very fast when she was delivering her messages, which proved what a good evening we had. The hall was packed with many new faces, so welcome to all those who came for the first time. Thank you Mary for visiting with us and we look forward very much to having you with us again.

JULY REPORT FOR M.S.D.C's MONTHLY MEETING

This month’s meeting we were very fortunate to have with us Debbie Dean. Debbie is a Spirit Portrait Artist. She is very accurate and very funny in her communications with spirit and the audience. Debbie says that she, and these were exact words, “cannot draw for toffee” – what a strange English phrase that is too – but once Spirit take over control of the charcoal in her hand (her pictures are in black and white), the images of people just take shape. She just has to take up the charcoal and trust that this will happen, and it usually does. Sometimes the picture image is not of the Spirit to whom she is speaking, but there can be a connection somewhere, relative, friend or neighbour for example. So this means she is talking to one spirit and drawing another, but for the same receiver. It is the message which is important and not the picture, and some of Debbie’s information was explicit both with description of spirit and personal information. Her presentation is always very funny which always adds another dimension to a good evening of clairvoyance. So Debbie, MSDC thank you very much for joining with us and we look forward to meeting with you again in the future.

REPORT ON JUNE MEETING

For our last monthly meeting in June, James Byrne should have been with us having to travel from the north of England. Unfortunately James was not at all well and had to cancel due to his own ill health.
So we have to thank our very own “ever ready to assist when need be”, Janet Wilson. As you may know, Janet has been a Medium for many years now. She is on the MSDC Committee and assists in so many ways. On some Saturdays at Tovil Working Mens Club Janet holds a Healing and Meditation morning. All are welcome to come along 10 – 11am and there is no charge. Janet also gives us our Meditation at our special Christmas monthly meetings. Janet is an experienced Medium and besides helping us out this month, she gave some wonderful information to many present. It is not any easy task to do rostrum and Janet did superbly well at such very short notice. Thank you Janet. Hope to see you July 8th when Debbie Dean, clairvoyant artist is with us.

MSDC May Report

Our visiting Medium for May was Barbara Almond from Faversham. Barbara spoke to a packed hall who were very welcoming as she is a very jovial and happy person and makes people laugh continually. Barbara is also a Reverend so besides her clairvoyance she has many other duties to perform such as marriages and funerals.

Barbara started the evening by saying that she often makes a spirit connection earlier in the day if she has an evening performance. Early this day there was a man insistent to find his wife, and Barbara managed to find the recipient. Sometimes she said spirit are really persistent to make early contact when they know she will be in contact with their loved one later in the day. Fortunately the link was made and one lady in the audience was very happy. Barbara’s evidence was amazingly correct. Names of people, places and events which mean a real connection to the recipient.

The second half of the evening Barbara did clairvoyance through colour which is quite new to her, really interesting and quite lovely. She took two coloured feathers from a bag and then went to a lady wearing similar colours. All colours represent an emotion or need. .ie blue/purple – healing, green – emotion, pink – love and kindness, red - strength. Even a black feather was good meaning a new beginning. So the people who were given the reading with the coloured feathers, needed the same colours for some reason in their lives at this time. She picked out baby pink and baby blue feathers and then went to a lady who had six children! Very accurate.

A very enjoyable evening was had by all, so thank you again Barbara for visiting with the Maidstone Spiritual Development Group.

An Evening on Spirit Photography with Ron Bowers
Wednesday 8th April 2009

This meeting was an extremely interesting event which really held the audience’s attention and there were many positive comments, gasps of incredulity and spontaneous questions as Ron worked through his DVD. Ron, who is a medium, even though he’s not sure he is (!!) is able to pick up on energy and can go to any building or site and sense when spirit is around. He takes photos all the time of the area in which he is sensing energy and when he later looks at the photos, he frequently gets “spirit” shapes or orbs. These shapes are mostly quite obviously spirit people from bygone times and places. This may sound incredible but actually the shots we were shown on the DVD were all genuine. Ron told us where and when they were taken and the circumstances under which he was working at the time and what he was sensing and feeling.

Ron is a genuine, self-effacing man who works as an Alarm Engineer in the day and does his Spirit Photography work in his spare time. Ron has written a book with Christina M Schumacher called “A Gift of Spirit” which features much more information than is mentioned in this Report and many of Ron’s excellent photos.
See some of them on the website:

http://www.nightwatchmanchronicles.com/RonBowers.htm

You can buy the book from the website or contact us for more details.

Many people in the audience brought along their photos showing orbs and spirit lights which proves that there is a lot of Spirit activity coming through now in photography and we need to learn more and take notice of this phenomenon.

This was a brilliant evening – don’t miss your chance to look and learn when Ron Bowers comes to M.S.D.C. again. Ron has offered to come and work with M.S.D.C. or any paranormal group at any venue in Kent, and we hope to arrange something for next year. Watch the M.S.D.C. website for further information.

MSDC March Report

MSDC monthly meeting on 11th March was extra special. Two wonderful ladies, full of energy and colour. Jan Linch and Nessa Harrison gave us a wonderful evening of Colour and Clairvoyance. Colours may be more significant in our lives than some of us realise, as we were due to find out in the course of the evening.

Jan works scientifically feeling emotions through colour: ie “feeling blue”, “in the pink”, “seeing red”, “yellow belly”. We use these expressions about colours all the time, and we know the emotion that goes with each colour automatically. All colours heal and each colour has a negative and positive emotion for us. For one colour’s example, yellow means upliftment which is just what we need after a long winter, hence the universe gives us daffodils and primroses to uplift us after a long winter. We can wear the right colour clothes, or eat the right colour foods which will automatically help us balance ourselves and give us the positive that is needed from any special colour. It truly is a very complex and scientific area, but most fascinating.

Jan has written books and her website is www.dodecadiamond.co.uk click onto shop where her three books are listed, alternatively tel 01580 852113 should you need more information. Jan and Nessa together went through all the colours giving details of their negatives and positives and how and why at special times we are drawn to a certain colour instinctively. They also gave colour clairvoyant reading to a few lucky people in the audience. It really was a great evening and I do hope that it is not too long before they come back again. We thank them both most sincerely.

Report on the February Meeting of Maidstone Spiritual Development Centre

February monthly meeting was one with a difference and thoroughly interesting and enjoyable. We had three mediums each with different talents. Robin Lown is a Palmist, Caroline Small is also a Colour Practitioner and Grant Colyer, Medium, replaced Michael Kingscote who was unfortunately unable to be present. They all worked together and the pace of the evening was very fast.

Robin erected a screen so that peoples hands/palms could be shown magnified through a projectors (but one with superior capabilities) when placed under its lens. Our hands are all individual, not only the fingerprints. They tell so much about each and everyone of us, about personalities and traits. So complex that there are 54 bones in a hand, and 18m of nerve fibres in one finger! No wonder they hurt if trapped in a door! Caroline ask everyone to imagine a colour trapped in our cupped hands and then place the colour on our body. She then went to some people in the audience and asked them what colour they had chosen, and then she gave a physic reading as to why they had chosen that colour.
Grant then gave clairvoyant/spiritual readings to some lucky people who received correct information and evidence, but told with a hint of humour, which is as it should be. The audience was then told that 4 people had a tarot card under their seat. This meant that they had been chosen by Caroline for a reading, but again she first asked the colour they had chosen earlier in the evening. To finish the evening off, 7 members of the audience were asked to put their hands under the screen. In turn, and by all 3 Mediums together, the individuals were told some of their own personal characteristics, and given a clairvoyant and spiritual message. A really, very, very interesting evening. Problem was, the evening was not long enough!

If this evening interests you in any way, please contact Charmed, Mind, Body, Soul, 6 Goods Station Rd, Tunbridge Wells, TN1 2BJ. Tel 01892 533506 or there is information in Two Worlds. These three Mediums work very well together and do go around the area giving stage demonstrations so you may well not have missed your chance to see them even if you did not come to MSDC last month. Robin has agreed to come along to M.S.D.C. to run a workshop on Palmistry, probably in October. Watch out for details in our Programme July to December which is published around June.

January's monthly Meeting

- as with all other monthly Meetings at Maplesden Noakes School - started at the earlier time of 7.30pm and not 8pm.

We had good attendance for our own Paul Lawson who now lives locally in Kent. Paul is such a gentle and quietly spoken Medium, but has the wonderful ability to lighten his informative and accurate messages with little jokes and his infectious laugh. He truly is a very good medium and we are so lucky to have him back living in this area so we can see more of him. If you did not manage to come last month, please look out for Paul Lawson next time that he is visiting Maidstone Spiritual Development Centre and come along. Living locally Paul will give Private readings should anyone require one and he has always been very kind to step in as a reserve Medium if the MSDC have a visitng Medium who cannot make it at the last minute. For this we are truly grateful.
Thank you to Paul yet again. See you hopefully Wednesday, February 11th for 7.30pm start.

December Report MSDC 

This month was our Christmas meeting and it was lovely, giving us all hopefully a taste of the Festive time that is a ahead of us.

We had a full capacity audience which is always great. Our Medium was Cheryl Ennis, who as normal was giggly, cheerful, funny and fast with her information jumping from one person to another giving love and messages to many. We truly thank her for coming every year on this special Christmas evening.

At half time we all enjoyed mince pies and nibbles and many bought candles to light to remember family and friends during the lovely meditation that Janet did for us. Thank you Janet as we know you have not been feeling too well of late.

The meeting was friendly and cheery with everyone present getting into the Christmas spirit.

It has been another excellent year for MSDC and we hope that all our Members have enjoyed all their times with us. This if course would not be possible without Marian who does so much hard work for us and who can never be thanked enough. She of course has the help of a dedicated Committee who also give their time voluntarily. Thanks to each and everyone, and to all our Members and visitors. Please keep coming because without you there would be no Maidstone Spiritual Development Centre. Please read the 2009 Programme January to June. It is full of excellent meetings and events and we hope to see many of you again next year.

November Report MSDC

Unfortunately James Byrne was unable to be with us for our monthly meeting because one of his children was sick, and as he comes a very long way to be with us, this is very understandable. Fortunately, Karen Willis came to our aid at the last minute. Karen has to come from Gatwick, so she bravely fought the M25 traffic! Karen started by telling us a true spiritual story involving children, the moral being that we, as adults, must never underestimate how naturally and easily children see spirit and take that as normal. We must always encourage them whenever possible to tell us, and speak to them about what they see and never dismiss incidents which to them are real, such as “imaginary friends”.   I believe there are many children today being born with a very high spiritual level and that can only be a good thing.

When Karen started her clairvoyance she knew exactly where she wanted to go to give a message. Her information was excellent and she feels she is an ambassador for Spirit which is lovely. She asked for three questions from the floor and gave the advice that if anyone of us need an answer to a question or problem, before going to sleep or when you are in peace and quiet, ask Spirit the question and when the time is right you will get the answer. Seems good advice to me.   Thank you Karen for a lovely evening and we hope to see you again very soon.
