There is much to celebrate in the Christian life; even in the midst of the challenges that arise. In community life we face both the joys and sorrows together knowing Divine Presence is always present and active in our lives.
September is The Season of Creation. This is not a liturgical season such as Advent and Lent. It is a time where we acknowledge and reflect on the beauty and care of creation. We will focus with gratitude on God's astonishing creation, and look at our responsibility to contribute to the wellbeing of the earth - for we are one with all creation. To celebrate and remember creation we have a few things planned:
> Four Fridays in September at 10:00 am we will have an hour of spiritual practice with a reflective reading, and interact with art, nature and spirituality. We will walk the earth on a beautiful scarf labyrinth, create nature altars, recognize the Immortal Spirit is within all created things, and create a nature collage. Coffee and tea is served after a short communion service.
> Sunday morning services at 10:00 am will be a time for learning and reflection on Creation along with the Selal and Cedar Eucharist prayer.
> October 4th at 4:00 pm. On St. Francis feast day, we will have a Pet Blessing Service - all are welcome.
Come, Holy Spirit, fill our hearts to be faithful. And kindle in all the fire of your love. And you will renew the face of the earth.
10 am Sunday Services - a Children's Circle too!
9:30 am Fridays - Centering Prayer Meditation (Wednesdays at 9:30 for the summer)
