The Seven Principles

Emma Hardinge Britten (2 May 1823 – 2 October 1899) was a medium and gifted orator and it was during her many speeches in trance state, that ‘spirit communicators’ gave various statements of faith. This resulted in the creation of the Seven Principles of Modern Spiritualism in the UK.
THE HISTORY OF THE JOURNEY WITHIN
The Journey Within Spiritualists’ National Union Church was founded in 1996 by the Reverend Janet Nohavec. It is the first church in the United States of America to be affiliated with the Spiritualists’ National Union based in the United Kingdom. Most other American Spiritualist Churches are affiliated with the National Spiritualist Association of Churches.

about rev. janet nohavec
Janet Nohavec was born and raised in Northern, New Jersey. A medium since birth, she has conscious memories of spirit communication since the age of 4. As a young adult, Janet entered religious life and spent five years as a catholic nun. After leaving the convent, she felt drawn to work with her mediumship and received extensive training to polish her gift. She taught and demonstrated mediumship internationally. She was the co-founder of the Journey Within School for Mediumship. She was also pastor and founder of The Journey Within A Center for Spiritual Evolvement, Inc. She has appeared and demonstrated her mediumship live on numerous radio programs and has been the focus of several newspaper articles. Janet treasured the gift of her mediumship and proved extremely evidentially the continuation of life after death.

She lives on in Spirit and in the hearts and minds of all she touched, both personally and through her mediumship.
A Message from Rev. Janet Nohavec
"God has blessed us with our new home. Everyday I thank him and all of those who helped bring this dream to reality. With this home comes great responsibility to steward it wisely. If you haven’t gotten involved, please consider doing so, our foundation is strong because of our members. The hawks that circle this property remind us of our freedom to search for the truth within our own hearts. This new year brings so many new exciting visiting mediums from around the world, the very best. One of the greatest things about our church is our members’ generosity and compassion – our Hands of Love program has helped many. Do not forget to celebrate your life, to follow your dreams and to remember to love with every ounce of your being. Come visit our church and share in our great joy." All my Love, Rev. Janet ~ 2010
