We are here for you! We believe “with God, all things are possible.”
Talk to a Practitioner if you are in need of inspiration, a celebration of a major event in your life, or healing in any area: financial, relational, health, or career. You are God’s wondrous gift. Let a Practitioner remind you of that!

Having completed two years of advanced study, practitioners are professionally licensed to work with individuals to support them in connecting with and living from their highest selves.

B. Amon James, RScP
In 1991 I first started practicing the New Thought understanding of God and Life as a member of Unity of Washington, DC, where I have served as co-leader of the Prayer Ministry, teacher, speaker, lay leader, soloist, and youth choir director. I was also the Minister of Music for the Unity Center of Light in Bowie, MD from 1992-1997, and in the 90s served as a Board member of Us-Helping-Us, Inc.
In 2002 I was ordained as a Minister by the National Spiritual Science Center of Washington, DC. My introduction to Science of Mind came through the Science of Mind “Guide for Spiritual Living” magazine around 1999. Since then, I have regularly read the magazine and its teachings, and was thrilled to become a member of the Columbia Center for Spiritual Living in 2018. I have served as a leader of the Music Ministry, a member of the Prayer Ministry, a Sunday Presider and a Sunday Reader.
On July 27, 2024, I was licensed as a Center for Spiritual Living Religious Science Practitioner and was inducted as a Licensed Practitioner in service to our shared Columbia CSL community on Sunday, July 28, 2024.
