As we honor Native American Heritage Month, and reckon with devastating climate change, what can we learn from Indigenous Peoples? Are we ready to explore Green Sanctuary 2030, and live out our commitment to Mother Earth? Join the discussion.

Please join in the end-of-the-year ritual as we mourn and celebrate those who have passed on. You're invited to bring a picture or token of them for the memorial altar.

In what ways could our lives be changed if we made a commitment to explore how our own experiences can be a source of deep wisdom when navigating life’s big questions or decisions? In this service, we will consider how paying close attention to the patterns, challenges, and joys of our lives can guide us toward clarity and discernment. Together, we'll seek to cultivate the practice of listening to our lives as a sacred source of insight and direction.

Come and join in this free FOOD FOR THOUGHT event (a meal, a movie, and a discussion). All are welcome!

5pm - Meal
6pm - One Person, One Vote? The Untold Story of the Electoral College
7pm - Discussion

"One Person, One Vote?" offers viewers a complex and nonpartisan understanding of the Electoral College that was created in a bygone time, while also highlighting the connective tissue that links then and now. The urgent and timely questions we’re grappling with today are not separate and apart from our past, but are directly informed by it.

The event is free, but please register so we can plan for the food.

What is a sound bath? A sound bath is a total body experience that allows the listener to relax into a meditative state where they are “bathed” in sound waves. In response to the ambient and acoustic sounds, participants may feel a range of physical, emotional, and mental sensations. The leader creates the sounds using a variety of healing instruments such as gongs, singing bowls, percussion, chimes, and tuning forks. You will not want to miss this!

Let's break out our blue suede shoes and boogie our summertime blues away at this service! We'll sing, we'll dance, we'll laugh, and we'll make music together the old fashioned way. We'll learn traditional African dance steps, how to dance a Sarabande (helpful if you're ever teleported to 17th-century Spain), and more.
