Summerland Online Church Meetings This Week (Nov 25 -Dec 1)

11/24/2020

==============================================
************* THE WAY IT WAS *************

Although we are used to seeing the masses come
together to see the grandiose balloons making their
way down the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade route,
this year the celebration will be a bit different. The
Macy's Thanksgiving Parade will air nationwide as
a television-only event with no audience on NBC
on Thursday, Nov. 26 from 9 a.m. ET to 12 p.m. ET,
in all time zones.
The parade's iconic balloons will not be anchored by
human handlers this year but will instead be pulled by
specially designed vehicles driving in precision.

==============================================
Zoom Mediumship Meetup canceled this Thursday
Next Mediumship meetup December 3.
Thursday November 26
Happy Thanksgiving
Set a place at the table for loved ones in Spirit!

Saturday November 28 Zoom
Service @ Noon 12:00 PM

Frank Kotowski took the NSAC Oral Exam via Zoom for
Ordained Minister Wednesday afternoon. He later received an
email from June Killmer, the Director of the Education Department,
stating that he “unofficially” passed the exam and further
instructions for the future ordination ceremony are on the
way. This gathering, when it is safe to meet in person again,
would serve to to introduce Frank as an Ordained Minister
to the Summerland congregation.

Congratulations, Frank, for fulfilling your goal and dream
of becoming a Spiritualist Minister. You already were
demonstrating leadership qualities for more than 10 years
and now have the full credentials. Summerland is so
proud of you and the heights you have attained. We know
you will not rest on your laurels and will keep progressing!
Blessings to you!

Saturday October 31
Full Blue Moon 10:49 EDT

Full Moons are always powerful points of completion and
letting go, but we may find that this Full Blue Moon doesn’t
bring the release we are looking for.
It may take until the next Full Moon in November, which
just so happens to be an Eclipse, for us to take the plunge
and finally say goodbye to whatever it is that we wish to
release.
By rooting and grounding ourselves in whatever the present
moment brings, step by step we can make our way through.
This Blue Moon falls on an auspicious night, where the veil
between dimensions is considered to be at its thinnest. This
is connected to the rising of the Pleiades at this time of year
in the Northern Hemisphere.
