Quantum Queen New Moon Gathering

Love Donation Request: $20

The New Moon is a sacred reset. A time to pause, reflect, and plant intentional seeds for the next cycle of your life. Come for an evening of deep peace, healing, and connection as we gather under the energy of the New Moon. The evening will gently weave in the sacred practice of ONENESS with the vibrational medicine of crystal sound bowls, creating a powerful field of resonance where energy, vibration, and consciousness align. When ONENESS is paired with sound healing, something beautiful happens. The mind softens. The heart opens. The nervous system settles. Divine Light and Love flow more freely. This gathering is a gift for your body, your spirit, and your spiritual journey.

The new moon does not ask you to do more. It invites you to listen, soften, and begin again. This is a light-led space. A space of gentleness and presence. You are not required to share, perform, or be anything other than honest with yourself. Come align your energy and activate your vision with us. Join our soul-nourishing community. Come as you are. Leave aligned, anchored, and attuned for your next chapter. Just sit, breathe, and receive. All are welcome. Invite friends and family who may benefit from this heart-opening, soul-nourishing evening of ONENESS and resonance under the beautiful new moon. 

Suggested Love Donation: $20

Fire Ceremony


February 24th @ 5:00 PM

Hope Interfaith Center 
In The Great Room
114 Pohl Rd 
Mankato, MN 56001

Love Donations Accepted to HIC: $5 - $20

We will gather in spiritual communion to consciously let go of fears, old stories, resentment, self-doubt and offer them to the flames. Fire reminds us that endings are not destruction…They are transformation. There is something sacred about fire. It transforms. It purifies. It releases what no longer serves. Let the fire carry it and let your spirit feel lighter.

Bring a rattle if you have one. All are welcome.

Sound Immersion

Facilitated By: Heather Paulson

Sound Immersion is a part of many of our events here at HIC. You will enjoy this experience in many of our Spiritual Services, New Moon Gatherings, Oneness Blessings, Qigong classes, and more!

Sound Immersion is created by crystal singing bowls, tuning forks, gongs, Koshi chimes, and guided meditation. These sounds don’t just relax, they bring you into a deep state of ultimate bliss. They activate your parasympathetic nervous system (the one that tells your body it’s safe to rest, breathe, and heal). As the vibrations wash over you like a ray of sunshine, they help release feel-good chemicals, reduce pain signals, and guide you back into balance, peace, and presence.

Sacred sound helps one to remember who you truly are: Divine, whole, and worthy of love.

If you would like Sound Immersion to be a part of an event of yours or come to your home or business, contact HIC to inquire.

Facilitated By: Heather Paulson, HIC's Director, a Heart-Centered Entrepreneur, Sound Integration Specialist, & NLP Coach for this transformative experience!

What you may bring: yoga mat, water, and an open heart

Love Donation Accepted: $20 or pay what you can at the door - Proceeds support the sustainability of HIC.
