A Cautionary Tale | Rev Rick Belous

For a number of years Rev. Mary Manon Morrissey’s Living Enrichment Center (LEC) was one of the leading New Thought and Inter-Faith centers in the world. However, with success came dissension, loose practices, and back-biting. A few years after LEC reached glorious heights, it crashed and burned, resulting in almost $11 million worth of embezzlement, jail time, and ultimately bankruptcy for the LEC. “What happened at the LEC is a cautionary tale that we should learn from as we build our dreams at the SLC. It can show us ways that we can remain true to Spirit,” Rev. Rick Belous suggests.

Spiritual Life Center is an Interfaith, Unity community located in Sacramento, California for spiritual seekers and life explorers. We honor the many paths to God and support people of all faiths in learning and applying positive spiritual principles in their daily lives.
