Theme for Month of June: "Young At Heart"

"A bird doesn't sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song." 
 Maya Angelo,
I Know Why the Caged Bird Sing.

 

 

Expression is the sure cure for depression. It's easy to be depressed when we don't sing the song we were meant to sing. You might ask which song? I have so many!

 

Creative people have many possible ways to express their gifts. Since everyone is creative, the challenge is to choose the endeavor that most resonates with your heart and makes the biggest contribution. Dr. Martin Luther King reminds us, "All can be great because all can serve".

Goddess Workshop & Tea

Left to Right - Dr. Val Sussman, Rev. Marilyn Miller, Dr. Laurie Edgcomb, Rev. Geri Woodson, Debbie Echevarria, Co-hosts, Lynda Ellis, Lyn Wandell.

Rev. Marilyn led the workshop on "The Nature of the Goddess." Lynda Ellis and Lyn Wandell helped create an amazing array of delicious goodies for a health conscious tea menu (no white flour or sugar - dark chocolate doesn't count).

 

Delicacies included chocolate covered strawberries, dates with cream cheese & roasted cashews, fresh nectarines, tuna won ton, herbal lemonade and mint tea. It was a relaxing afternoon to explore Goddess figures in world culture and to see how their stories apply to our own lives.

 

FATHER'S DAY - Sunday June 15th is the day we honor our Dad's, and all they have contributed to our lives. Rev. Will Castagna and his son, Liam will present the morning talk, and everyone is invited to go out to lunch at a nearby restaurant.

More prayers for more rain please!

 

 

LET RAIN DANCES CONTINUE &

YOUR PRAYERS BE PLENTIFUL

 

The meteorologists have predicted an El Nino weather condition this July. Many say that's unheard of & impossible. If we look at U.S. weather, we notice many weather patterns have changed dramatically due to climate change.

 

If El Nino (torrential RAIN) is predicted for California, let's pray for Spirit to "bring it on". It can end the drought.
