Sunshine Kids Club Welcomes You! At the Sunshine Kids Club, we believe every child is inherently whole, wise, and worthy. Our Sunday program, held at 11:00 AM every Sunday, is more than just childcare—it's a vibrant space where children aged 4–10 explore self-love, mindfulness, and creativity in a nurturing, inclusive environment. We also provide childcare for ages 2 and 3 until they are ready to join our youth lessons. Tweens ages 11-12 are invited to be helpers! See below for information about Teen Program ages 13-18. Our sessions blend free play with engaging lessons designed to help children recognize their inner light. Through activities like guided visualizations, story, affirmations, art projects, and mindful movement, kids learn to connect with their inner selves and express their unique gifts. Our curriculum is rooted in the principles of Science of Mind, focusing on empowerment, kindness, and the understanding that each child is a powerful creator of their own experience. We aim to provide a safe space where children can explore their spirituality, build confidence, and develop tools for emotional resilience. Performing "I Love Myself So Much" for the congregation Creating cards on Mothers Day Learning about connection through our drumming circle Popsicle party on our playground for Cinco De Mayo Teen Program Our teen program meets every Sunday at 11A during service. We welcome teens ages 13-18. Teen program places a focus on mental well-being, acknowledging the teen experience. We aim to give teens the tools they can use to help co-create a life they love. Teens have the opportunity to go to CSL summer camp and winter camp, an experience rooted in connection, self-love, and empowerment. Each week in the teen group can look a little different. Twice a month they participate in workshops. When not doing workshops, the teens brainstorm and prep fundraising for teen camp. They also have social hang outs in various ways, like art, nature time, or just chatting. This is a place for teens to be themselves outside of the social pressures of school. From time to time, we meet with other Teen CSL communities. The teens are the ones that make this program thrive, having a group that they can grow with as life in high school shifts each year. See our children's program newsletter for upcoming teen workshops. Below are some teen workshops we have done in the past.

- PRACTITIONERS | RBCSL
"Discover our dedicated practitioners at Redondo Center for Spiritual Living. Explore their expertise and commitment to supporting personal growth and spiritual well-being. Connect with our compassionate community in Redondo Beach, California at redondocsl.org/practitioners." Practitioners Finding Inspiration in Every Turn A Practitioner is a person of high spiritual consciousness and deep understanding, trained in the study of the Science of Mind and “Treatment.” Treatment is the art, science, and skill of Affirmative Prayer. Practitioners are dedicated to the cause of helping others, licensed to practice professionally, and bound by a high code of ethics to respect your privacy. Meet The Team Mail 310-379-6653 Patti Donnelly Mail 310-972-1828 Annie Hofmann Donovan Mail 310-373-7288 Maureen McKinney Mail 310-819-2524 Marc Ruth Mail 310-292-7900 Monica Ruth Mail 310-938-1938 Bernice Slocovich Mail 310-344-8143 Elaine Yuzuke Professional Practitioner Services Contact the Center for Spiritual Living Redondo Beach to make an appointment with a practitioner, or connect with a practitioner after Sunday service, either for a full appointment or a One Minute Miracle. A full appointment is more interactive with the practitioner in order to discover more about the belief that is causing disharmony. Each practitioner comes from a loving space of nonjudgment and confidentiality. What Is Affirmative Prayer? The use of Affirmative Prayer (sometimes referred to as a “Spiritual Mind Treatment” or just “Treatment”) in our daily lives gives us the privilege of choosing the direction of our thoughts, so we are in harmony with a Power greater than we are, and brings our experience out of the darkness of limitation. It is a very powerful tool used to change one’s thoughts, one’s beliefs, and one’s experiences in a positive way. Do I Need a Practitioner? Practitioners are dedicated to the cause of helping others, licensed to practice professionally, and bound by a high code of ethics to respect your privacy. Ask yourself the following questions: Am I too close to my own problem to see the situation clearly? Do I feel that something is blocking that which I am seeking? Do I feel that I lack the experience with, the training in, or the understanding of the Science of Mind principles necessary to resolve the difficulty? If any of these questions can be answered “Yes,” a Practitioner can be very beneficial and helpful to you. FAQs Once I decide to seek the services of a practitioner, what do I do next? When you have decided to seek the services of a Practitioner, you can help by trusting the process: Have faith in the Mind of God. It is Omnipotent and It does the work. Contemplate your challenge and get clear on what you want to accomplish in consciousness. Release your problem by giving it to your Practitioner. Be ready to move forward in consciousness and accept a healing. Endeavor to keep a positive attitude. Be expectant, accepting every good thing as part of your demonstration. Be thankful. Give thanks for the wonderful change that is taking place in your life. Do I need to be present in order for Affirmative Prayer to work? No. Affirmative Prayers are just as effective if the Practitioner is in your presence, on the telephone, or on the other side of the world. There is only One Mind: One Infinite Intelligence and that Mind is everywhere present. Can I do Affirmative Prayer for myself? Yes. The Practitioner will also assist you in the process and correct use of Affirmative Prayer. For example, the following simple Affirmative Prayer alone can raise your consciousness and your level of acceptance of good in your life, "There is One Universal Life, and I am unified with It. I declare that within this Divine Life, there is all that I need for a healthy, happy, prosperous life. I accept this good gladly, turning away from any appearance to the contrary. In deep gratitude I give thanks – I let go and let God. And so it is." After I receive the services of a practitioner, what can I do to assist in the manifestation of my good? Have faith in the healing power of the “Spirit within”. Use the Affirmative Prayer given to you by the Practitioner as many times as necessary every day. Focus on your desired outcome. Keep a positive attitude. Be grateful. Give heartfelt thanks, knowing the wonderful changes that are taking place in your life. Why is there a cost to work with a practitoner? Practitioners have taken at least 3 years of Science of Mind classes. They have done their own spiritual work and continue to invest in themselves. They are professionals and their experience, knowledge, skills, and time are valued. Recognize that treatment work is never withheld because of an inability to pay. Simply explain to the Practitioner, and ask for work in the area of prosperity so that you can start to heal that and be in a stable financial condition.
