This Sunday's Service ~
July 21, 2013
10:30 - 11:30am
"To Those Who See"
by
Rev. Elizabeth St. Angelo
Those who see use their imagination, the doorway to their soul. They can see the world as they want it to be, not as it is. In Facing the World with Soul, author Robert Sardello asks us to see everyone as family and the world as beautiful, plentiful, and at peace. With our thoughts, we create our lives and the world around us. Our minds, including imagination, are more powerful than we can imagine. Those who see beauty, plenty, brotherhood and peace, bring it into their lives and into our world!
Music by James Schattauer

Next Sunday School Sunday
July 28, 2013 10:30 - 11:30am
The Soul of Money, Money as Soul by Rev. Ron Moor.
Democrates and Republicans fight about it. The Haves seemingly have it and Have-Nots do not. What is your imagination of money? What attributes do you associate with money? Power, freedom, energy, excess, perversion, bling, greed? How much is enough? How might we begin to change our relationship with money to bring more soul into our communal and individual world?
Finally,what does this beatitude mean to you? "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." How might it be related to our topic?

with

Members' (and Friends') Corner

|
The countless blessings of your life
are waiting for you to call them by name.
The mere fact that you are here on Earth, breathing, alive, now -
is a confounding miracle.
Life itself conspired to bring you here,
to fill your body with life force,
to drench your senses with beauty,
to swell your heart with delight.
Life loves you.
You are no accident.
And you are not alone.
You came here to fall madly in love with life in its myriad forms:
river, oak, fox, raspberry, crow, baby, granite, rain, mountain.
The air is happy to be breathed by you.
All of the water in your body once flowed in great rivers,
and your tears are cousins to the singing seas.
Your bones are made of stardust that has traveled the universe since the dawn of time.
Of course, you forget this.
We all do.
We dwell in a sea of mystery that is so immense, so extravagant
we can't perceive it.
But now and again, it is good -- very good --
to remember how close, how magnificent, how outrageous
these wonders are.
To notice your perfect place in creation.
It is not far away.
In fact, it is so close you can't see it.
Unless you look.
So look, look!
Welcome the wonder.
Every time you look, you will see.
Every time listen, you will hear.
Every time you remember who you are,
where you are
the wonder blooming in and around and through you will never stop.
