An update from Center Director Leonard Cassara and friends: "Center Rebirth" matching gift extended to March 18th, Edgar Cayce's birthday.

Your donations from 11-22-11 to 3-18-12 doubled up to $11,000. Your affirmations & prayers are equally valued.

Dear Friend of NY Cayce Center:

In this time of spiritual awakening and sweeping transformation, we feel privileged to be part of the "Labor of Light" begun by Edgar Cayce. That's why a group of long-time friends of NYC's Edgar Cayce Center have come forward to invite you to help bring about its rebirth.

Like you, we're part of the ARE/NYC community—people who consider the Cayce Center our spiritual home. We share a vision of a revitalized Center of love and enlightenment, healing and oneness. At this pivotal time in human history, we believe it's essential to have a spiritually minded, heart-centered place where NYC seekers of all sorts can connect with our inner guidance, heal on many levels, and evolve to our highest potential.

Our commitment to the Center's rebirth is so strong, we're committing our own resources to making it a place that's as close to heaven as we humans can get on earth. A haven in every respect: spiritually, mentally, physically.

If you share this desire to see the Center thrive and evolve, we ask you to put your money where your heart is right away because we'll match every dollar of your donations and pledges received from 11-22-11 to 1-11-12 up to $11,000. Your donations are fully tax-deductible.

And since money is only one form of energy, your contributions of positive energy are just as welcome, valued, appreciated. Whether you contribute prayers and affirmations (see below for a good one), volunteer, reconnect with the community, or just direct some divine energy the Center's way, we accept gladly, and gratefully!

How will your contributions be used? Just about everyone who cares about the Center feels a deep, pressing need to renew our physical space and presence in cyberspace. Our intention is to make it more welcoming, more uplifting, comfortable, professional and more centering.

First comes a renewal of the Center space itself. Among the goals: refinish the floors, repaint the walls, soundproof ceilings and doors and make the space cleaner, "greener" and more conducive to positive energies and healing experiences. Other volunteers have offered to help upgrade our furnishings and rejuvenate the bookstore.

Next up is an overhaul of our computer system to simplify appointments, registrations, bookstore sales, etc., and equally important, a renovation of our website. This will make it easier for more NYC-area seekers to connect us for self-development courses, holistic health and spiritual growth. Attracting more people creates the possibility of more spiritually centered friendships—and more energies, more abundance to keep growing.

There's much to do, and now's the time to do it before 2012. Every dollar you give up to $11,000 will be doubled. Every dollar is tax-deductible. Together, we'll make it possible with our combined gift of $22,000. Funds will be used for the renewal of the Center and other necessary expenses. Thank you for giving as generously as you can.

Blessings of Love & Light,

Leonard Cassara, Director
And friends of the ARE/NYC
