Good morning. My name is Ernie
Robillard. I have been told by a good friend that the messages I have been
getting from Spirit should be sent out for everyone to read. Here I am, not
knowing where this is going to go, but continuing to move forward. I will start
at the beginning and I hope when I am done you will understand a little more.
In June of 2011 the First Spiritualist Church of Rhode Island opened its doors
for the first time. This church was
started by my wife Susan Robillard (president), Judy Mellor (vice-president),
Nathan Horodysky (secretary) and myself (treasurer). With no hard goals in mind
except to make the people the most important part of the church, we began our
journey. Since then I have received
messages from Spirit touching on many different topics and ways to run the
church. We are an independent church, meaning we focus on structure less
and helping people more. One of our main missions is helping people to realize
that their feelings are their “inner selves” trying to connect with their “outer
selves.” Many of the people who come to
the church proclaim immediately, " I feel that I have come home," and
they truly have for at the church they can express themselves without any
worries about being laughed at or made fun of.
Many of the feelings and experiences people share within the walls of
the church would not be understood or accepted outside in their own worlds.
Over the last few weeks I have been receiving messages from Spirit during
service, usually coming through when we are singing. Recently I have been telling Susan and Nathan
about some of the information I have been receiving from Spirit. The latest message came on Sunday October 28,
2012. Spirit has referred to our church as a shelter. "Shelter" in this sense means a
place people can come to in search for something different and unique. A place
where people can take a break from life, whether that means physically, emotionally,
or spiritually. A place where they can
rest and hopefully find a new direction or path with no time frame
attached. About three weeks ago Spirit
spoke to me and told me that the church is a development center. They went on to explain that we will
help people to develop spiritually. We
will help them conquer their fears. We will give people the opportunity to
speak in front of others about many different topics and concerns. Most important of all we will give them the
opportunity to share messages they are receiving from Spirit with those
who are ready to hear.
This week we had the privilege to have Lorianne Nunes as our guest medium. This was her first time speaking at any
church and she was nervous and a little apprehensive. She spoke about inner fears and how to
overcome them, which everybody loved. Her
messages were unique and very accurate. I
speak of Lorianne because it is my wife Susan who first expressed confidence in
her saying she must do a service at our church, for she has special gifts.
Susan told Lorianne that the people will love her, which they did. My wife has done this for other mediums as
well. Another favorite of the church who
was approached by my wife is Gladys Ellen.
Susan met Gladys at an expo at Twin River Casino. Immediately Susan was captivated by Gladys's
messages and energy and told her that she must come to the church and do a
service. Gladys responded by saying, “I have never done that.”
Susan replied, “The church will love you," and they
did. Gladys continues to come to the church and her services are
attended by many. Susan has the ability to see inside of people and to
know that the messages and abilities they possess must be let out for other
people to see and experience. Another
example of this is our own church member Bridget DeBose. Bridget has come to
the church since the beginning. She is a
very talented woman who speaks to Spirit everyday of her life. Susan instantly was aware of her gifts spoke
to Bridget saying she must do a service at the church to share her
talents. Bridget too said, "I don't
know about that." This past July
Bridget gave her first service and did a fabulous job. She will continue to do
more services for us in the future.
I bring all this up because the message I received from spirit was to let Susan
continue to find these diamonds covered over by sand. While Susan searches for
people to come to the church to speak and give messages from Spirit, she unearths
these hidden but talented people and brings them to the surface. Here in the open, where everyone can enjoy
their great talents and abilities, we see them blossom and thrive. The church has
been blessed to have someone as special as Susan to lead it into a new period
of love and light. By finding these
beautiful people and giving them the chance to
share their abilities with others we all begin to grow and thrive as a
Spiritual community. No matter what
direction Spirit asks us to go, I know with Susan at the helm of the church we
will be around for a long time to come. Please come and join us for service
every Sunday morning from ten o'clock to eleven thirty. Come and witness the unearthing of some
beautiful gems. Perhaps you will receive
the call from Spirit next. Hope to see
you soon. Our church is located at 877
Broadway, East Providence, R.I.
As I stated in the beginning, I believe spirit will be giving me messages to
pass along to you. They may come from
anyone or any time. They may be humans
who have passed, people from other worlds, ascended masters, angels or possibly
someone even higher. They may be about
any topic as well. My journey began with
the Spiritualist church so it is fitting that Spirit began this journey with a
message about the church as well. Please
continue to look for "THE WORDS OF SPIRIT," for I hope they will help
fulfill your life as they do mine. Thanks for listening.
