A message from the "Things get worse before they
get better" Department:
starting tomorrow, June 7th through the 11th there will be grinding and
repaving of Cherry & Humboldt Streets. There will be little to no
vehicle traffic between 7 am and 4 pm on those dates. However, there will
be pedestrian sidewalk access. Please plan accordingly if you are coming to the
church this week.

Last of the Pipe Organ
Mini-Recitals for this season will be held on
Friday, June 11th, at 6 pm. Doug DeForeest, local organist and current dean of
the local Redwood Chapter of the American Guild of Organists, will be playing a
program of music by Richard Purvis. Purvis was long time organist at Grace Cathedral
in San Francisco and was known for his richly registered improvisations and
compositions. Doug will be "drawing out" of our Cassavant (by "drawing" on the
many colorful stops) as close a rendition to the original as possible. Come and
enjoy. Dinner at a local restaurant to follow with artist and other interested
parties! Experience the music of 12th century Abbess Hildegard von Bingen the way
she herself shared it with the women and men who sang with her - as a gentle,
contemplative practice of listening and singing togeth er. Through the Ear to
the Heart meets on Monday evenings from 7 to 9 pm, in the Church. No
previous experience with the music of Hildegard or with medieval music is
required. Everyone who loves to sing, or who has always wanted to sing, is
welcome. Sponsored by Numina Center for Spirituality and the Arts.
The Evening Women's Group will meet on Tuesday, June 15th at 7 pm at the home of Donna Wiuff. All women are welcome to join us. We are a supportive group providing a place to share our lives and our spiritual journeys with each other, building friendships as we go. If you have any questions, please contact Donna Wiuff at 707-837-8768.
Camping: fun,
fun, fun! Incarnation members are going camping
together during the weekend of June 25-27 at Hendy Woods State Park. You can
choose to play in God's playground by swimming in the swimming hole or hiking,
or you can relax in the midst of his Creation, or do it all! Space is limited
so sign up soon by calling Stephanie Blair at 707-837-2972, or by emailing her
at StephChristel@gmail.com. Cost will
depend on the final number of people who sign up, but is anticipated to be
about $20 per person. Pastoral Care: Information for all of you who have Kaiser Health Care! Do you know that for $5.00 and a visit to the Medical Secretaries office at Kaiser in Santa Rosa you can buy a flash drive or memory stick for a computer which you can carry with you (many people keep it on their key-ring) and contains all your medical information? All they ask is that you sign an authorization release, give them a 6-12 character password, containing both letters and numbers, and pay the $5.00. They will then transfer all your medical information to the "stick" right on the spot and you are good to go. In the event of an emergency, anywhere in the world, this flash drive can be inserted into a USB port in a computer and viola-the EMT or emergency room staff or a doctor in your son's hometown (where you may get sick while you are on vacation ) has access to all your medical information. You do not need to have a computer yourself for this-just carry it with you at all times.The Medical Secretaries office is located in the main hospital building, right across from the elevators on the first floor. They are open Monday through Friday from 8:30 to 5 pm and close daily from 12:00 to 1:00 for lunch.
