Claude-Generated Themes:	Spiritual Frontiers Fellowship was an American organization founded in the mid-1950s within liberal Protestantism to carry psychical research, mediumship and spiritual healing into the churches, and its newsletter reported the group's meetings, seminars and tours. The sampled May 1970 issue is largely the program for a study tour to Scotland and England organized with the British Churches' Fellowship for Psychical and Spiritual Studies, listing that body's clergy-officers alongside the celebrated healer Harry Edwards, the medium Ena Twigg, and Paul Beard of the College of Psychic Science, and taking in Glastonbury's Chalice Well healing shrine and a healing meditation service. The paper stands at the intersection of psychical research, Spiritualism and spiritual healing, distinctive for pursuing them inside a mainstream Christian church setting rather than an occult or Theosophical one. Generated by Claude from the periodical's digitized text; a thematic reading, not a bibliographic description.
