I think it is wonderful that you love your religion. But for peace to rein on earth all of us must learn to have unconditional love, acceptance, forgiveness, and respect for each other. I'll share something with you. I have had the experience of dying to myself and merging with God. It was a very enlightening experience! I learned that God has no religion and is unconditional love - and that each one of us is filled with that light/love. I saw through God's eyes how most war is waged in his name when he is a God of peace. It is sad. Rather than following his advice, people choose instead to create religions worldwide around his message of love, then claim that only their tradition is correct and then feel justified to kill others in his name. That is the true meaning of sin. With all my love, Sheri Dear Melanie,

So what you're really doing is calling down evil familiar spirits or a false god that appear to be "light". You may seem enlightened but you're really having the devil or the "god of this world" play with your spirit, soul and body. Why have these "retreats" during the sacred Jewish holidays of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur? Because you're "speaking against" the God of Isreal, the Maker of Heaven and Earth, the God of Love, Mercy and Grace - only He and His Son (Jesus Christ) can set you free. READ THE BIBLE - 2 Corinthians 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. John 8:36 Whom the Son sets free, is free indeed! 2 Chronicles 33:6 ...he used enchantments, and used witchcraft, and dealt with a "familiar spirit" and with wizards: he wrought much evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger. Please be "enlightened" that Jesus Christ is the ONLY WAY! God bless you! When you do anything “spiritual” without the name of Jesus Christ, it’s demonic.

I have the honor of meeting and sharing hearts with so many amazing angels. Through these trips and my personal relationship with Sheri, I have been able to quiet my mind and listen to the stillness of my heart, so to be in service at all times. A combination of physical, spiritual, emotional challenges, these trips open up opportunities to be heard in a sacred space and without judgement. Being able to do this is important for me, to mirror myself back to me. When we connect in this way, we realize we are not alone and how connected we really are. I am in gratitude that these trips exist and honor any and all of Sheri's journeys as sacred and majical. I love you Sheri and it was amazing meeting all of you on the Sedona trip. You all have enriched my life even deeper. One heart love, Sofia Sheri’s trips are indeed the most fullfilling for me personally.

The oneness I felt with Mother Earth, Father Sun and the other participants was truly a blessing. For the first timer and return spiritual travellers this was an enlightening experience mostly due to Sheri's personal attention to each and every one. I am grateful for the opportunity to have shared such a beautiful journey with such an accomplished teacher as Sheri.

They are True Angels of Love and Light. They gave so much of themselves to each one of us. They are amazing women. Everything about the journey was wonderful. I accomplished things I never thought I would. Met some very fantastic people who I will cherish always. Thank You so much.

I came home feeling refreshed and renewed - filled with a sense of a new beginning. I did things I didn't think I could do. Hiking the red rocks of Sedona turned out to be my favorite activity. The sessions and ceremonies at the hill-top destinations served to enlighten and stir the spirit from within. Tears flowed and fears melted as we scaled those mountains, opened our hearts and offered our prayers of peace. Sheri and Shanti engulfed us with compassion and love. The truth emerged and a new dream began. This group of strangers, all traveling alone, left with strong bonds and new visions for a joy-filled life. LIVE BOLDLY - we were instructed. Make a difference. Love and honor self. The Mago Retreat Center was beautiful, peaceful and very accommodating. Introspection and fun were well balance - a perfect, thought-provoking getaway. I hope to travel with Sheri and Journeys of the Spirit again in the future and highly recommend this trip. Thank you, Angels, for sharing your passions and bestowing your love. Namaste.

It truly was the most exuberating trip, which has allowed me to deepen the process of my intention to create the life that I desire for my personal empowerment and lifelong happiness that I am learning to find within me! This profound journey to Sedona allowed me to literally disconnect from the things in my life that had been blocking my ability to have the necessary vision and clarity that I needed in order to proceed on the path of my life's purpose. Before this trip I had some personal challenges that were getting the best of my emotions and my ability to have a healthy state of mind. However, with each day of this powerful, life changing spiritual journey, I became more edified and aligned with that part of my soul that got buried in life’s social programming and limiting beliefs. Because of this trip and Sheri’s heartfelt, impactful spiritual teachings, I was able to purify myself from negative emotions and faulty thinking that were misaligned with my best intention to express the Divine within me. Thanks so much Sheri for being such a wonderful example of positive, loving spiritual energy! I look forward to the wonderment and continued spiritual growth as I learn from you and traveling with you in 2010...You surely put your heart, soul and spirit in all that you do. Thank You!
