Diane Reed presenting In this era where information, entertainment, and unlimited resources are at our fingertips, has electronic media become a curse or an opportunity to satisfy our innate curiosity? Let’s explore how that access can provide an opportunity to learn more about our faith, ourselves and the world around us.
If you are wondering what actions you can take over the summer to help preserve our democracy, the Social Justice Team plans to continue our Get Out the Vote (GOTV) efforts during July and August. These activities will include post-carding and learning more about our country’s electoral system. Anyone who is interested can participate. We do not have the specifics on the post-carding campaign yet but plan to email the details as soon as we have them to those who expressed interest.
We continue scheduling weekly ½ hour vigils on Saturday mornings from 11:30 a.m. to 12:00 noon on the church lawn. All are invited to join in. Contact Dody Adkins-Perry (adkinsperry@gmail.com) with any questions.

with Natalie Johnson https://zoom.us/j/95815714238 This New Moon falls in the sign of Leo, the great cosmic lion. It also falls within the Lion’s Gate Portal: an alignment of Earth, Sirius and Orion within the constellation of Leo. Timed with the annual flooding of the Nile in Egypt, this alignment creates a gateway of energy that can accelerate spiritual healing, transformation and the ability to manifest. Come join us as we set our intentions, meditate to connect with the heightened energies and together, manifest what we want to bring forth in the world. The Lion’s Gate Portal is open from July

Dody Adkins-Perry presenting In 2017, Dody went on a 9-day pilgrimage through Alabama, Mississippi, and Memphis, Tennessee. The Living Legacy Project says, “The Pilgrimage is so much more than a civil rights history to us.” The group did visit historic sights, but they also met with veterans there, working in small consciousness-raising groups dealing with our relationship to racism and white privilege.

Sue Curtiss presenting Have you ever found yourself thinking about someone, only to receive a phone call or a visit from that person minutes or hours later and wondered “What was that about?” Synchronicity is what happens when seemingly unrelated events coincide in improbable ways that have some significance for you. Jung believed synchronicities were evidence of a unifying consciousness at play in the Universe, creating physical manifestations of what’s happening in our psyche. This presentation will be an exploration of the fascinating phenomenon of synchronicity from the scientific, psychological and spiritual perspectives. We will explore ideas such as “What

with Natalie Johnson https://zoom.us/j/92615804021 This month’s Full Moon falls in the sign of Aquarius, the Water Bearer. Although often associated with the element of water, it is actually an air sign and the higher octave of Gemini. Both rule communication, but where Gemini can be impulsive, unbridled and spontaneous, Aquarius is more refined, tempered and discerning… choosing exactly the right words and phrases to convey one’s true meaning.

Adrian Gunn presenting Adrian will offer an exploration of stoicism as a philosophy, detailing how it has informed his own life and provided a framework for being a useful, ethical human being and a valuable member of community.
