My Spiritual Journey began in Atlanta Georgia at the Atlanta Church of Religious Science with Dr. Kennedy Schulz as my teacher. I moved back to Milwaukee my home town and founded the Milwaukee Church of Religious Science.  After 5 years I moved to Sarasota, Florida and worked with the Sarasota Center for Spiritual Living. I returned to the Midwest after a year and used these wonderful principles in my business life and career in Mortgage Lending which I did for over 30 years. The best part of this teaching for me is no matter where I am or what I am doing Spiritual Principles can be used to make any situation better. I now teach a class on the first Wednesday of the month at The Center for Spiritual living, Palm Springs.  Every day is an opportunity to express these Principles in many ways, lucky me!
