The Houston A.R.E. Center becomes…..
"Edgar Cayce's A.R.E. Health Center Spa - Houston"

We are pleased to announce with great excitement the merger of the Houston A.R.E. Center into A.R.E., Inc. This happened in June 2008. Kevin Todeschi, CEO of the A.R.E., Inc., explained that our Houston location when finished will offer the full extent of experiences of the Edgar Cayce Work available in Virginia Beach. We will share headquarters' programming and become in addition the Center for outreach to Latin America including Spanish language programs, resource materials and training seminars. The first phase of changes and additional spaces will be finished in November. The first massage CE class will be this December. The formal opening of the new facilities is scheduled for January, '09.

In the interim Co-Directors Carl Bohannon and Edward Jamail and the volunteer staff will continue to operate the Center. There will be a Spa and Center Director hired to manage the operation with paid staff as needed. As with A.R.E. in Virginia Beach, much of the staff will be volunteers. We will be looking for many new volunteers for the expanding activities.

These announcements were received with great enthusiasm by the eighty plus attendees at the recent Town Meeting. We are aware of the tremendous opportunity this represents and also the huge responsibility. Many will have to come together to ensure all of this happens as soon as possible. We need your prayers, labors, and financial support. Patrick Belisle, the Development Director, estimates that the Health Center and Spa will cost about one million dollars to complete. We will need to raise the money ASAP. When Patrick asks for your donations, please remember that giving is also receiving and that the benefits to our area will be enormous.

Sharing your resources (energy) is a wonderful opportunity to pass on to others all the blessings you have received from the work of Edgar Cayce. Contact Patrick at: 434-906-0803 or at pat.belisle@edgarcayce.org.

Let us express out gratitude to Kevin Todeschi and the A.R.E. Board for this expansive project by enthusiastically supporting this effort.

We are the first property A.R.E. will own outside of Virginia Beach and represent a major outreach to the public. Both are milestones in A.R.E.'s history.
