Love to all! My name is Barbara B Jones. But truly who am I? I am extension of love. I am an extension of Life. I am an extension of God’s perfection. I am an individualized emanation of Spirit. And I finally know It. I uttered my first prayer when I was 7 years old. And my whole life I have been seeking to recognize the Spiritual Presence at the center of my being that refused to let me shrink. I have been seeking to grow spiritually always. I began my learning about God in catholic school and later in a Baptist church for 40 years. I started teaching Sunday School at the age of 14. But from somewhere within, I knew there had to be a path to more peace and joy than I was experiencing. In 2010 I became conscious of the teachings of Science of Mind. This teaching answered and matched what I already knew, that I was loved, loving and loveable. What I had learned in the world of not being good enough was no longer the message that ran my activity. The first principle that I embodied and made my own was, “I am Whole, Perfect and Complete.” I became a licensed practitioner under the loving ministry of Rev. Sheila, in 2012. Following her path, I travelled to Oneness University in India and participated in a 6week silent retreat where I became more grounded in the teaching of Oneness and the gift of becoming a Blessing Giver. Rev. Twana’s messages, emphasis on the principles and Oneness along with her passion to reach out into the world with our message of Love, continues to ignite my passion to live authentically and to shine my bright light within my Center of Peace family and beyond. The “A Course in Miracles” textbook and care circle continue to feed my Spirit and I love its teaching. I recognize myself to be truly happy because I daily practice letting go of thoughts that no longer serve my freedom. I’ve gained the wisdom that I am the creator of my life and that I am the responsible agent that gets to plant the seeds and reap the harvest in my own life. It is my joy to be able to share eternal Truths and life sustaining principles with everybody and anybody I come in contact with. I do have a B.S. in education from Penn State and a Master’s Degree in education from Arcadia University. I taught elementary education in the School District of Philadelphia for 35 years. Presently, I am an active and engaged grandmom who also happens to enjoy co-teaching classes at TCP, facilitating Living the Science of Mind, book study, and offering my services of spiritual counseling to those that seek me out. I love, love, love to share my unconditional love and zest for life!
