Angels - How to Communicate with Your Angels
with Richard D'Angelo
Much has been written about Angels. There have been movies, TV shows, books, etc., all focused on these amazing beings. But few people have explained what they really are and why they want to help you with your life. Fewer still discuss how you can connect with them on a personal level. In this class all these questions will be answered and more… Archangels and Spirit Guides are also included. You will learn how to connect with them so that you can begin to work with them that very night! In addition, all of your questions will be addressed concerning these beings and the meaning of life itself. There is a reason why this class has been around for over 35 years. Come and join us for a class full of information and joy!
