Symphony of Life Annual Congregational Meeting Our Annual Congregational Meeting will be held on Sunday, April 3, from 12:00 to 1:00 PM right after our church service. We will be discussing our vision for the future, financial and budget matters and other issues of concern to our spiritual community. We need a quorum to conduct business at the Annual Meeting. If you are a member, new or old, please plan to attend. Lunch will be a potluck, so please bring a dish to share. Sacred Service Saturday Our next Sacred Service Saturday is coming up on Saturday, April 2nd from 9:00 AM to 12:00. We will be in service at the Equine Sanctuary, 239 Boardman Road, Ojai 93023. Bring a sack lunch and drink for a picnic on the property afterwards. Whatever your talent, there is a place for you. No horse experience necessary. We enjoy these Saturdays where we, as a congregation, give service to our community. The camaraderie we experience working together for the good of the greater community is a gift that we only understand and appreciate in the doing of it.

Special Musical Inspiration We had a big treat this past Sunday! Michael McCurtis and DaLoria Smith-Mondesir took the roof off the Woman's Club with their glorious singing and Michel's keyboard playing. We were out of our chairs clapping and dancing. We are about love and joy at the Symphony of Life, and we certainly had our share of it this past Sunday. Check out the pictures below of Rev. Karen, Miyuki, Michael and DaLoria. We love our music! 
Centennial Celebration We are invited to join the Ojai Valley Woman's Club as they celebrate the Centennial Anniversary of their clubhouse which is our spiritual home (100 years .... wow!).

Creative Adventures Winter Program We are very grateful to Annavae and Steve Weed who were our wonderful facilitators in the children's program this past Sunday. Below are some pictures of our children. 
We love our youth program which supports parents in raising joyful, happy children who are self-confident, spiritually aware, global citizens. Each Sunday, our children 3-11 years old enjoy prayer, story telling, visual arts projects and/or music and movement. Our program is enriching and appropriate for young people regardless of their religious backgrounds. As part of our Sunday program, children get to explore the roots, purpose and meaning of special holidays throughout the year. We welcome assistant teachers who enjoy children and are willing to give of their time once monthly or quarterly. Please call Rev. Marilyn Miller if you are interested (805) 640-0498. The Symphony of Life Book Club At our last meeting, we chose the book, "Leaving Cheyenne," by Larry McMurtry for the month of March. Our next meeting will be held on Friday, April 1st, 6:00 PM at the home of Peggie and Duane Williamson, 11756 N. Ventura Ave. All are welcome to join in at any time. It is a potluck meeting so bring a dish to share. Contact Peggie Williamson, (805) 640-2450, for more information. 
We celebrated Tiese and Bob Quinn's 29th wedding anniversary with them. They dedicated our Sunday flowers with this message: "When we met in 1972, we had no idea we would be on such a long and interesting journey together. In love and celebration of our 29 years of marriage, today we share our happiness with our church family." Love, Bob and Tiese. Visit our SOLSC Website
