Re: Mile Hi Church Practitioner Training and Licensing Process
Dear Practitioner I Students,
We offer our heartfelt congratulations on pursuing the path of studies that can lead you to
licensing by our parent organization, the Centers for Spiritual Living. The curriculum that we
teach each week is provided to us by CSL and is the baseline for what is required to pass the
Professional Practitioner Studies Program at Mile Hi Church.
Over the two year program each student must complete Facilitator Training, a total of 6 Voice
Dialogue sessions, 6 different Practitioner sessions and one of Dr. Roger’s Meditation
Retreats. These requirements, along with the course curriculum, are intended to prepare you
to pass both your written and your oral exam in your final year of Professional Studies. If you
have any questions about your class requirements, please contact the registrar at
(720) 974-2242 or consult the Practitioner Professional Studies course catalog.
Although, the majority of practitioner students do pass the licensing exam process, not all
students have passed and become licensed Practitioners. The preparation we offer is not a
guarantee that you will pass the written or oral exam. It is important to note that the work of
preparation must go beyond just an intellectual understanding of the Science of Mind and
Spirit principles and must include a corresponding heart application of these teachings. Your
ability to incorporate SOMAS in your heart and mind could be assessed in either your final
written or oral exam. In some cases a postponement may occur and a minimum of a one
year delay in licensing could take place. It is important to clear any issues that could be a
block to being fully in service to Mile Hi Church or the church that will hold your license. It is
important to be heart connected with SOMAS principles to become a practicing practitioner.
Unhealed areas have a way of showing up in either of the licensing exams. The Oral Exam
will be given in the presence of a licensed minister and 2 licensed practitioners.
We want to be clear on the licensing requirements with all practitioner students as you enter
and continue your preparation studies. We would appreciate it if you would please sign this
letter as indication that this communication has been received.
Thank you and Blessings on your Continued Path,
Dr. Patty and Rev. Ras
