Thursday June 8 @ 7:30 PM Zoom Mediumship Development Meetup  Photo by Griffin Taylor on Unsplash. Grandpa's Cap: Connecting with Psychometry Hi, everyone. For our Mediumship Class on Thursday on Zoom, Suzanne Garrison-Terry will be directing the class. This is the description of the class: In this class, we will use objects from a person to connect to the person. For example, using my grandfather's favorite cap to connect to him. Please bring two items to class. Each item must be connected to someone who is in spirit. Each medium will connect to the energy of the object that his/her partner is holding and describe what information is being sensed. • For the Zoom link, please email our church in advance.

Two In-Person SCOL Services a Month Now: Our church is having two hybrid services (services that are in-person at UUFSB and also live-streamed on Zoom) a month now. They are usually on the first and third Saturdays of the month, but this may not always be the case. Our next Hybrid services will be on June 17 and July 1. If anything changes concerning our in-person services, we will let you know. At this point, we are not requiring you to wear a mask but you may certainly do so. (Health protocols may change due to changing NY state and UUFSB mandates.) The room for our services in the Religious Education wing has two portable air-purifying systems that will be used during the time we are there. We require a minimum of four people to attend (not counting the platform workers and helpers). Please let us know if you can commit to coming, and how often, to our hybrid services. Also, we are looking for more people to serve at our hybrid services. If you have an interest in offering a Spiritual Address, offering a guided meditation, or being a greeter, please let us know in an email. Please email our church with your reply or for any questions you may have: summerlandchurchoflight@gmail.com =============================================== Spiritual Healing Requests =============================================== Spirit healings result from law-governed forces being put into operation following the sending forth of a thought directive (prayer). Spirit guides and doctors will diagnose the trouble and its cause, attention being directed to overcoming the cause, and then removing the symptoms. Please set time aside each day to send healing thoughts for each of those listed below, that they may receive from Spirit that which is for their highest and best needs. Your healing prayers are needed and benefit others in ways we may never know. To request that a name or situation be placed on this healing list, please send a note to summerlandchurchoflight@gmail.com Prayer for Spiritual Healing I ask the Great Unseen Healing Force To remove all obstructions From my mind and body And to restore me to perfect health. I ask this in all sincerity and honesty And I will do my part. I ask this Great Unseen Healing Force To help both present and absent ones Who are in need of help And to restore them to perfect health. I put my trust and love in the power of God. Christopher G.
