September is coming soon, just around the corner, the fulfillment of Spring and Summer.  And Olinda will awaken fully from Summer’s rest.  The September newsletter will be coming soon but let’s not wait until then to anticipate.

The first Sunday, as always, will bring us all into focus for the coming year, and include memories and events of the summer with our annual Water Ceremony.  That last is your bringing a small amount of water from something of the meaning of  this past summer bringing joy, sorrow, change, remembrance to your life.  We’ll share the water in a common pitcher and then pour it over the Memorial Garden behind the building.

The second service will jump us back to a core element of what was the minister’s Sabbatical work of earlier this year, attending services at two originally Universalist churches in Great Britain:  Edinburgh, Scotland and Brighton, England. And we’ll be off  to the races.
