August 7, 2026 Oakland, CA Group Ceremony with Minister Jill Vice

Group ceremonies are the core ritual of our congregation, an opportunity to journey in the power of an emergent joint spiritual field. If you've ever meditated in a group, you know that it's more profound, deeper, and just plain easier to find stillness, connection and insight. Group ceremonies enjoy the same communal energy—a powerful way to dive into yourself, into Spirit, and to take another step on the path of awakening.

The online preparation session for this ceremony will be August 5th at 5:30-7pm PT and the online integration session will be August 11th at 5:30-7pm PT.

All ceremony registrations include:

✨ a group preparation session
✨an individual intention-setting session w Jill
✨the ceremony itself
✨a re-immersion group integration session on Saturday morning
✨an online group integration session

WHERE: Details will follow for members who register. Registration will be on a first-come/first-served basis. If full we will keep a waiting list. We typically gather at 3pm on Friday and wrap up before noon on Saturday.

PREPARATION: We will have a Zoom call for the entire group beforehand to introduce ourselves to each other, talk a bit about what to expect, and review the ins and outs of what to expect.

REGISTERING AND RESERVING YOUR SPACE

The suggested donation for the ceremony is on a sliding scale, which is meant to allow folks with higher incomes to create some support for congregants with less income.

  • For those earning less than $70,000/year = $700.
  • For those earning $70,000 to $120,000 = $900.
  • For those earning $120,000-$165,000 = $1100
  • For those earning more than $165,000 = $1400.

A $300 non-refundable deposit is requested to reserve your space with the balance paid on ceremony day. Please choose a level on the sliding scale and include that in your registration form. Ceremony will take place in Oakland, and Jill will share the exact address as the date draws nearer.

After reserving your spot, Jill will reach out to schedule your intentions call.
