Location:
The North Syracuse Community Center
700 South Bay Rd.
North Syracuse, NY 13212
This group includes both experiencers and non-experiencers, and is open to everyone. In these meeting we may invite Authors and speakers, or show movies, so we may bring in interesting and fascinating accounts of near-death experiences into our area. These meetings are for a broader range of people and appeal to those who are more comfortable in a “learning” atmosphere.

NDEs belong to a larger family of experiences that transcend the usual limits of space and/or time and have the potential to transform a person’s life and beliefs. They are often called spiritually transformative, conversion, mystical, or transpersonal experiences.
Attitudinal Changes and Aftereffects:
“There is one common element in all near-death experiences: they transform the people who have them. In my twenty years of intense exposure to NDErs, I have yet to find one who hasn’t had a very deep and positive transformation as a result of his experience.” Raymond. A. Moody, M.D.
In several studies, nearly all near-death experiencers report a strong decrease or complete loss of the fear of death as the result of their NDEs.
At least 98% of surveyed NDErs now believe that there is life after death.
NDErs, including suicide attempters do not generally attempt to take their lives again.
Spiritual growth, a loving attitude, knowing a Higher Power/God, inner peace and a sense of purpose in life characterize the changes most meaningful to NDErs.
Over 80% of surveyed NDErs expressed a strong increase in their concern for others and that life has meaning or purpose.
Among surveyed NDErs, 55 - 89% of report an increase in psychic phenomena or healing abilities following their NDEs.
