The First Church of the Divine Light
was founded in 1918 in Hartford, Connecticut, by an American Indian of the Pequot
Tribe, The Reverend George Cogswell, to practice and promulgate the precepts of
Spiritualism.

At the present time, we hold worship services on Sunday afternoons from 3:00 PM  
to 4:30 PM in the Chapel of the Unitarian Meeting house at 50 Bloomfield Avenue,
Hartford, Connecticut.  Our order of service includes the Lord's Prayer, the 23rd
Psalm, hymns, a healing service, a lecture, and a time when messages from Spirit
are given.  We are Christians and celebrate Christmas and Easter, although we
accept Truth from other religions and philosophies.

At The first Church of the Divine Light we know that love, like life, is stronger than
so-called death.  It is love that proves to be the compelling force striving to remove
barriers, which man in his ignorance has created between this level of life and the
next, in order to achieve spirit communication.

There are many spheres of existence that are invisible to us because they function
in a different manner from earth.  Millions of vibrations of sound are lost to us
because they are outside the range of our hearing.  The same holds true regarding
our sight.

There are, however, highly sensitive individuals who have developed their innate
natural psychic faculties to the result that they can tune in to vibratory rates on other
levels of life or the so-called spirit world.  These human sending and receiving sets
are called mediums.  They become agents through whom spirit communication is
achieved.  There is nothing supernatural about this happening though it is
super-normal.  Everything in the universe is in accordance with natural law.  They
were devised by God and God is perfect.  God is all-powerful.  God is Spirit.
