The Wheel of the Year Turns
with Rev. Linda Goodman
Sept 22, 2019 ~ 9:30 - 10:30
We are at a point in the Wheel of the Year where the energies of earth support reflections on balance. The hours of day and night are in balance. What else might come into balance? Male/female energies? Bhakti/shakti? Devotion and action? Breathing in and breathing out? Come breathe with us.
A bit about Rev. Linda Goodman:
Rev. Linda's spiritual journey went through earth-based spirituality. She is happy to share reflection on tuning our spirits to the energy of the earth cycles.

Thursday Sacred Circle with Barbara Thorngren
July 18, 2019

Gardens: what you sow, so shall you reap
Barbara will hold the circle for us as we discuss tending our own gardens: what you sow, so shall you reap. This will be a great followup to Damanjeet's “Planting Seeds” topic last week. Please join us in a conversation of the heart around the topic of what we are planting in our own gardens today... do we need to plant a little more unconditional love? Do we need to plant a little more forgiveness? Do we need to plant a little more release and letting go? And what are we putting into our soil in order to grow such beautiful plants? And how are we cultivating our soil with love and intention? |

Thursday Sacred Circle with Rev. Damanjeet Kaur;

Awareness of moving with the seasons and celebrating the season of Summer
Damanjeet invites you to offer a sharing about what the season of Summer means to you. Music and ritual honoring this blessed season of play, rest and patience to receive that which we will reap from that which we have sown are some of the ways we will explore during this first in the Summer Sacred Circle Service. |

Spiritual Lessons learned from Loving Trees and the Importance of our Interdependence
Can you remember your first encounter with a tree? Do we really SEE them now? We know intuitively that a walk in the woods will help us feel better, why is that? How is our spiritual and physical health and well-being so interconnected with the trees? How is their ancient wisdom shared that is so vast and deep? Please join me on June 30th as we take a fresh look at our beloved trees Barbara Thorngren, M.Ed., has a background in nursing and education. She loves working and teaching with her animals, art, spirituality, nature, and especially the trees on her small farm in Temple. She will be starting seminary in September and is excited about embracing and sharing her spiritual life more publicly. |
