and Inspirational Music”

Date: May 27, 2023
Time: 1:00pm-4:00pm
Venue: The Tahoe Beach Retreat, South Lake Tahoe, California
Presenters: Alexandre Fisher, C.S. and Melanie Wahlberg, C.S.
Musician: Andrew Brewis

We are extending a warm, open invitation for all to join us for an uplifting and inspiring Christian Science lecture on May 27, 2023, at The Tahoe Beach Retreat in South Lake Tahoe. This event promises to be a unique opportunity to explore the transformative power of spiritual awareness and healing solutions to life’s challenges.

The lecture will feature two renowned speakers, Alexandre Fisher, C.S. and Melanie Wahlberg, C.S. Each of them will share their own unique insights and experiences on the topic of spirituality and its role in bringing healing to our lives.

The title of Alexandre Fisher’s presentation is “How Spiritual Perception Brings Healing.” Originally a litigation lawyer in France, Alexandre has now been a practitioner and teacher of Christian Science for many years. In his words, “I’m not a lawyer anymore, but I still work to help others get out of trouble, to get out of a sense of limitations, to find more freedom. But the way I see it, Christian Science is not just about feeling better or fixing problems. It’s about being willing to challenge one’s world view as entirely molecule based and soulless, to be open to see the world as spiritually based, and experience how this change in perspective brings inner peace and healing. It is about understanding more clearly our relationship with God, infinite good. It is about understanding Christ Jesus’ message in a non dogmatic way, bringing healing, harmony and freedom to our life.”

Melanie Wahlberg’s presentation is entitled “Giving Freely of Ourselves.” Melanie was a college math professor who has always enjoyed teaching. She says: “There was nothing better than witnessing a reluctant student realize that a previously mystifying concept was actually within reach to anyone.” When students came to her office for help with calculus, they often found themselves talking about the joy and excitement of growing spirituality. After just two years at the college, she resigned from her position and began accepting calls as a Christian Science practitioner. At our Summit Melanie will explore the idea of giving freely of ourselves as an expression of God’s love. She will share examples of how this principle has brought healing and transformation to people’s lives.

In addition to the presentations, there will also be a music performance by Andrew Brewis, a talented musician from London, England. Brewis is known for his uplifting and inspiring music that speaks to the heart and soul of listeners. His music has been described as a combination of traditional hymns and contemporary music, and it is sure to touch your heart and uplift your spirit. Eight of his compositions have been published in the new Christian Science Hymnal used in churches all over the world.  Andrew’s assessment of this achievement is that “it is as exciting as it is humbling”.

This enlightening and uplifting afternoon will take place at The Tahoe Beach Retreat, a beautiful venue located in the heart of South Lake Tahoe. The venue offers stunning views of the lake and surrounding mountains, making it the perfect place to gather for a day of inspiration and renewal.
We hope that you will join us for this special event and be inspired by the transformative power of spiritual perception and the healing solutions it brings. We look forward to seeing you there!

Overcoming Fear with Spiritual Understanding

Overcoming Fear with Spiritual Understanding

Fear is something we’ve all felt—whether it’s nervousness before a job interview, anxiety about a health concern, or even just that vague unease about the future. What if fear isn’t something we have to manage, but something we can actually overcome?

Christian Science teaches that fear isn’t a power—it’s a misconception. It comes from misunderstanding who we truly are and what governs our lives. When we gain spiritual understanding—when we begin to see ourselves and the world through God’s eyes—fear loses its grip. That’s because fear thrives in darkness, but spiritual understanding shines a light.

Youth and Spiritual Healing: Embracing Truth in Early Life

There’s something especially powerful about discovering spiritual truth when you’re young. Youth naturally comes with curiosity, openness, and a desire to make sense of life. When young people begin to understand the divine laws of healing taught in Christian Science, they gain more than just tools for tackling challenges—they begin to see themselves and others as God made them: whole, loved, and spiritual.
