Seven Day Programs
For Members and Non-Members
The Seven Day program has been designed to reach the largest amount of people. Although we anticipate that most people will become members of Seven Day via our Foundation For Living program, others may come in through some of the more “church type” activities. Both groups will pay the same annual membership fee and receive the same amenities. Additional programs will be determined in accordance with the will of our membership. Yet, we anticipate that a variety of study groups and events will be offered throughout the communities.
Program #2
Seven Day Church and Ministry
We plan to offer weekly services in existing church buildings to provide a forum for religious leaders of various faith traditions and to be a people who convey God’s truth, revealing His character of love. In our church type programs, we will teach the importance of surrender to know God’s love and provide education which teaches people how to make this connection. Our mission is: to promote God’s love, the importance of surrender (to know God’s love) and healthy living. There are many pathways to the Father but only one way that will take us into His heart, under His wing of protection and into the joyous relationship that can come only through surrender.
Members pay $25 or a greater sum annually and, upon satisfactory completion of the Foundation For Living curriculum, are eligible to receive the same benefits as our other consumer members. Some book study groups will be offered and facilitated by ministers of Seven Day Church and Ministry including the Bible, CwG books and Seven Spiritual Laws of Success (Life). Additional services will include spirit cleansing and healing along with educational support for children and their families.
Ministers are people who have completed the Foundation For Living curriculum with a minimum score of 90, Reiki I & II, some essay questions and passed an interview process. These people, depending upon their education and experience, are eligible to perform various ministerial services under the auspices of Seven Day Church and Ministry, similar to those in traditional churches.
Our advanced ministerial certification requires in-depth training in energy healing and spirit cleansing therapies at Seven Day and the Medicine Wheel teaching presented in Rev. Roy Wilson's workbook for the purpose of providing the necessary skills for specific ministry programs. Roy is a former college professor and a retired Methodist and other faith denomination pastor for 46 years. He is now a shaman and Chief of the Cowlitz Tribe. In his teaching, Roy reveals the similarities between various religions. Visit www.natureman.net for more information about him and the Medicine Wheel or send your inquiry via email to vicki@sevenday.net.
Our Board of Directors and Advisors will consist of representatives from our primary target populations including teachers, pastors, physicians, police/judge, and qualified healers. Additionally, we need paid staff, ministers and volunteers to assist us in the implementation of our Seven Day programs. Click Here to see our board, employment and volunteer opportunities.
Our ministry team will participate in various capacities, depending upon their degrees, experience and qualifications.

Ministry to Promote Religious Tolerance
An on-going ministry has been in existence since 2000 whereby pastors’ sermons are critiqued. When appropriate, constructive comments are made either verbally or in writing. The basis for this ministry is in scripture. God writes, "My shepherds are leading my flocks astray". Only qualified and approved ministers will conduct this ministry. The purpose is to minimize poisonous preaching. This ministry has not been designed to give personal gratification nor is it necessary that the minister critiquing the sermon agree with the message being preached, providing this message is not toxic.
We discovered that our association with church frightened some people away. Even though we thought this to be unfortunate since "church" only meant that we are a people who join together to promote healthy behavior, personal responsibility, religious tolerance, and spiritual development, we have responded to the resistance by changing our name officially to Seven Day Living Institute. We are not classified as a church by the IRS and do not have an official doctrine. We promote the love of Christ which is available to everyone. We encourage the development of a pure vessel, one in which God can commune, and we teach love as the most effective response to negative circumstances. Our more church type activities will continue to be offered under the auspices of Seven Day Church and Ministry. Although we have a statement of philosophy which is written below, it is not necessary that our church members hold the same belief.
FOR ALL PEOPLE
Seven Day Church
FOR ALL FAITHS
We are a people who believe in a supreme creator, be it represented in Spirit, sky, nature or wearing a white suit. We encourage religious tolerance (if in love) personal responsibility and healthy behavior, believing that people must pursue their predetermined path but not in a way which hinders others. We believe that we have a responsibility to role model behavior which will be a positive influence upon the people in our midst. It is our hope to demonstrate the teaching of Jesus Christ in our daily lives so that those we impact can know what it is to be a true Christian. We know that God is love and that anything apart from love is not of God.
We believe that to have salvation is to have life and that without it is not life. This does not mean that without this life is the death of the soul, however. The soul does not die but will continue encountering a series of incarnations until choosing eternal life (salvation). These incarnations, experiences or states of consciousness may occur in a variety of locations including earth, other planets or the Garden of Eden.
We know from our personal experiences that our lives did not exist before asking Christ into our hearts and it is our desire to share this love of Christ with many. We open our hearts to you, our compassion, understanding and our detachment in allowing you to find your way. May God encourage your move toward Him.
We believe that Jesus Christ is God’s son, the firstborn among many brethren, and that he came to earth to show us the way. We can believe that he is God incarnate but not apart from our ability to do the same as we learn how and as we evolve to his same standing. It is a process which takes many lifetimes and it is not for any of us to judge another while they are working toward their salvation but rather to be a bridge to help them in their crossing over when they are ready to do so. We want only to do God’s will and we believe that God wants all of His children to return to Him.
Membership in Seven Day Church and Ministry does not require that you believe as we do but only that you are working your path toward salvation and that you agree with our mission: to promote healthy behavior, personal responsibility, religious tolerance, and spiritual development.
