| Cassadaga is one of those places that you get to on your life's journey and feel that you have come home.
my name is Dr. Louis Gates and I am a spiritualist Medium and Healer and Minister in the Southern Cassadaga Spiritualist Camp Meeting Association in Florida. I live here with my wife Marie Wilson Gates who also is a Spiritualist Medium and Healer. let me tell you about the place that I live and love and it brings such joy to my heart.
I moved near cassadaga as a child and grew up a spiritualist being trained by my mother as a medium. I was born with the gift to see and hear spirit. I found a peace in Cassadaga as a child and found it a place to touch god every day. when I got older I moved away from cassadaga but never lost my love for the place and years later I found myself back on the streets of this beautiful town. when you walk the grounds you feel a calming of spirit no matter who you are or how old you are. this place still takes my breath away! every time I see spirit pond or take a walk around this camp a light goes off and spirit says "good morning have a great day".
people talk of special places in the world and how places have energy this place still has the energy here as when George Colby walked on this ground for the first time when his guide seneca gave him directions on how to find this special place. spirit has always been part of Cassadaga - always in a good way - they are here to guide loved ones and to touch in with all their love. people say that the veil is thinner here. I feel that the energy of all the mediums who have worked in Cassadaga who now are in spirit, still help where needed in this camp.
George Colby came here with a dream of his own and one from spirit that still last to this day. this still is a place to come and sit awhile and take your shoes off and take time out of a busy life to talk to your higher self. you and only you can find your higher self and if just for a few hours or a day or maybe a life time, cassadaga can give you the peace to find yourself. Let go of worry in your life if you are going to worry why pray and if you are going to pray why worry so be still and let God
Lawrenceburg, Tennessee
I now have found a place in Lawrenceburg Tennessee and know that God has lead me to two great places in my life Cassadaga and here. When I sit in Tennessee and look at the mountain behind me and the creek with the sound of water in my backyard I feel that God put his finger in Tennessee and truly left a part of heaven here. So I do feel blessed each morning when I am here or Cassadaga spirit still tells me "Good Morning have a Great Day". I will be spending more time in Cassadaga to hear spirit but most of all to hear my own spirit. Spirit has a way of telling Marie and I where to be but most of all how to touch our Spirit. So when your life is moving "Look Aloft" And let your spirit and God help. We spend too much time trying to paddle the boat when God was there the whole time to help us. "So Let Go and Let God" most of all "Be Still" and listen God does talk to you most of us are too busy trying to paddle the boat alone. When we let go and let God Miracles will happen. We need to look every once in awhile to see the path ahead of us and to bring it into view. Look at the whole path not just what you want to see there is so much more that God want's to give you. "When you feel blessed you are blessed"
I wrote a poem to share with you:
"Cassadaga Light"
Cassadaga is a way station on
the path to god above.
when we watch the sky and sit
awhile god sends us his love.
we are just travelers searching for the
truth and our own inner sight.
as we bring spirit and guides to our
side we bring out our light.
Cassadaga holds a place of light to
share with everyone we see.
let us know that only god will let
us hold our own spiritual key. |
