October 4 – Frances Mercer:

“If there is to be peace…peace on earth grows from understanding, commitment, and action.”

Even the pursuit of Peace is extremely complex.
World peace requires interdependent and interactive kinds of peace thinking and action at
many levels—in and between individual hearts, homes, neighborhoods, cities, nations, religions.
We will explore and shore our understanding, questions, and concerns about what peace
means and might be—obstacles and benefits.

October 11 – Frances Mercer:

”If there is to be peace…participating in the growth of
peace on earth—starting from where you are.”

Rather than "rest in peace” would you
prefer to live in peace, be at peace, think about peace, learn about peace, move toward peace,
commit to peace, speak about peace, work for peace, support others who are speaking and
working for peace? How might we as individuals, as groups, and as a spiritual community
participate in growing peace on earth.

October 18 – Rev. Andrea Abbott Hook:

“Talking to each other.”

“The Invisible Web.”

Each of us has experienced
the loss of a loved one – human or a beloved pet. While the physical loss is a reality, the love
that connected us is never lost. Today we will honor their memory and recognize the cycles of
life of which we are all a part. This will be a multi-generational service and will involve a ritual
of remembrance. You are invited to bring photos and/or small tokens to place upon our table
of remembrance.
