Development

Development Circle

Circle meets every Thursday evening at 7:30pm, and is an open circle for church members. It covers various facets of development including attunement to the world of spirit, developing mediumship and also the religious aspects of Spiritualism.

Our circle leaders are Jo Allen and Anji Wylde who are working Spiritualist mediums, and have both been Platform Acreditated (PAS ds) by the Spiritualists' National Union.

If you would like to sit in circle, but you are not a member of Bromsgrove Spiritualist Church, please contact us.
