Welcome to
Church of the Joyful Healer,
recovering spiritual joy and healing within the greater Humboldt Bay area. We hope you will join us for inspiring music of many styles and traditions, for inspiring talk about God, for quiet prayer and for the companionship of a diverse group. You will be changed.
We take our faith in a loving God seriously and joyfully. Together we pursue our faith in our city, our county, our country, and in our world. With open hearts, open minds, and open doors we seek to be a community of faith that welcomes people of all ages, races, cultures, and all social and economic conditions.

KEEP IT SIMPLE
We human beings have a way of making life terribly complicated and confusing. As a remedy, sometimes we become overly simplistic. In between the overly complicated and the simplistic is the freedom and joy of simplicity. This is the path that the Joyful Healer walked and taught about. This will be our focus in July.

Ponderings |
Grrowing Older
Maya Angelou was recently interviewed by Oprah who asked what she thought of growing older. Some of her thoughts follow:
"I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow."
"..making a 'living' is not the same as making a 'life.'
..life sometimes gives you a second chance'
..whenever I have pains, I don't have to be one.'
..every day you should reach out andtouch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back...'
..people will forget what you said, poeple will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.'
..I still have a lot to learn."
