Services for October 2011
Just in case the web site doesn't get updated. Same drill as last month:
October 2--Visual Voices gallery artist, Debbie Wagner, whose work is currently showing at the Fellowship, will share the ‘layers’ of being an artist and her life’s journey, including the recovery from several brain tumor surgeries.
October 9--Dianne Neustrom will share with us this morning about what “you shall know the truth, and the truth will set you free” means to her.
October 16--Stephanie Mott, the executive director of the Kansas Statewide Transgender Education Project, state vice chair for the Kansas Equality Coalition, volunteer with the Topeka/Shawnee County Homeless Task Force and member of the Board of Directors at Metropolitan Community Church of Topeka, as well as a student working towards a bachelor of science in social work at Washburn University will speak this morning about her “long walk home” from being born Stephen Michael Mott and becoming Stephanie Michele Mott.
October 23--Rev. Thea Nietfeld speaks about how conflict generally brings out the worst in us – our inclinations to avoid or appease, hurt or blame... It takes maturity and skill to consider our assumptions, broaden our views of reality, and to reach compassionately toward those we are separated from. Often, it takes an uninvolved person and/or new ideas to invite us to risk being our best selves for the greater good. In anticipation of this afternoon's community workshop on conflict resolution possibilities in Salina, we'll consider assumptions and theologies, structures and hope for more peace in our place.
October 30--This year's celebration includes sharing a traditional circle with ribbon braiding, chants, and a conversation between a Witch, Celt, Druid, and Pomona that tells about customs and meanings for the holiday that has come to us as Halloween. Congregation members are invited to bring a photo or other memory item for a loved one who has died. Team members are Eva Slechta, Donna Rowe, RJ Green, Jani White, Krys Kershaw, Farrah Hastings, and Jim English.
