July 19, Amy Warner, Summer Zoom Discussion. “Summer Reading”
What have you been reading this summer? With the cancellation of so many other summer plans, I would imagine that folks are reading more than usual.
For the Sunday discussion on July 19, I’m asking participants to share a 2-3 minute introduction to the best book – fiction or nonfiction – that they’ve read this summer.
1) Give the title, author, and a short summary.
2) Tell why you like it and/or give a recommendation.
Hold up the book if you have a copy of it! I’ll keep a list, which I’ll then submit to the newsletter for inclusion.
I’m looking forward to hearing about what everybody’s
been reading.

Lora Powell-Haney, ” On the Threshold of Summer”
Sunday, May 31, falls between the Celtic sabbats of Beltane, May 1 and Litha or Midsummer, June 21. Let’s spend some time preparing for our own personal celebration of the Longest Day. Even in the midst of sheltering at home, minimizing our face-to-face interactions, we can ready ourselves for summer, welcome the exuberant growth in the natural world, ground and nurture ourselves
May 24, Rev. Sue, “Collecting Our Stories”
Over the last decade some of us have become genealogists, combing the Internet for records and stories of the past. In what ways might the experiences of our ancestors influence us today? On this Memorial Day weekend join Rev. Sue for this virtual service where we will consider the legacies of our ancestors. This service will include our annual ritual of remembrance to honor losses in our congregations this past year.
