Well, as in all Churches, they vary, but in our case we are true to our name - Bude Free Spirits. Everyone is welcome, regardless of race, creed or religion, or no religion. Contrary to popular belief, we don’t hold services in the dark, and things don’t go flying around the room! The hall is lit brightly! We believe that after we die in this life, we go back into ‘Spirit’ until we choose to come back into ‘human form’ again. In the Spiritualist Church ‘Mediums’ demonstrate that there is life after death, in Spirit form, by ‘channelling’ information from the spirit world that gives evidence, indisputable proof, that they are in contact ‘with the other side’.
In our church, our Thursday services generally have the following format;
An opening prayer, a hymn, a reading from the visiting medium, a healing section (more later), an address from the visiting medium, another hymn, then the medium will do their demonstration of mediumship. The whole lasting approximately one and a half hours. You may find the link below useful.
