Thursday September 8 @ 7:30 PM ET Zoom Mediumship Development Group Meetup Harvesting the Fruits of Our Labor Hi, everyone. For our Mediumship Class on Thursday, September 8, at 7:30 pm on Zoom, we will be working with the fruits of our labor this year. The Fall is traditionally the season to bring in the crops we grew and tended to in the Spring and Summer. Metaphorically, what crops can you harvest now, meaning what accomplishments for this year can you gather and enjoy and be proud of? And can our loved ones in spirit advise us about how we can harvest more crops or accomplishments that are still to come • Mediumship Meetup Zoom link: Please email Frank for the Zoom link. • A minimum of four students is required for a class. Please let Frank know by 2 pm Thursday if you plan to come: Send an email, text message, or phone call The cost for a class is $10.00 or $6.00 if you cannot afford $10.00. Please pay on our website: https://www.summerlandchurchoflight.org/payments--donations.html#MedDevGroup Frank Kotowski is facilitating this mediumship group, which is open to both SCOL members and non members.

Presider: Lindy Cacioppo Meditation: Camille Johnson Spiritual Address: Suzanne Garrison-Terry MESSAGE CIRCLE AFTER SERVICE • Summerland Church Service Zoom link: Please email our church for link.  Thank you !! We are asking for love donations at this time during our online church services to support our work and to allow us to continue through these troubling times. We are not meeting in person so can't pass around the offering plate to help us with ongoing operating expenses that need to be paid: partial rent, full insurance, Zoom fees, payment to the national organization, to name a few. https://www.summerlandchurchoflight.org/payments--donations.html Scroll to 'Online Church Service'.  Saturday September 10 Full Harvest Moon in Pisces The Harvest Moon reaches its peak illumination at 5:58 AM ET on September 10. The energy around the Pisces Full Moon is really urging us to go slow and to take our time. It is really urging us to listen and find our stillness. Pisces is the last of the 12 zodiac signs and represents the end of a cycle, so this Full Moon may very well bring an ending or culmination point to a cycle we have been working on. We may find that we can harvest the fruits of our labor, or a chapter we have been working on finally comes to a close. Be sure you keep your arms open to whatever the Universe wants to bring and trust in the timing.

=============================================== SCOL NEWS =============================================== UPDATE: The next In-Person service will be on September 17. Moving to Two In-Person SCOL Services: Our church is planning to begin having two hybrid services (services that are in-person at UUFSB and also live-streamed on Zoom) a month at UUFSB starting in October. We plan to have a hybrid service on Oct. 1 and 22. For the months that follow, wait for additional emails with more information. If we have enough people attending these two services, we will continue to have two hybrid services for the months that follow. 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 =============================================== UPCOMING EVENTS =============================================== Saturday September 17 In-Person and Zoom SERVICE @ 10:30 AM ET --- Sunday September 18 Zoom Afternoon of HEALINGS & READINGS FUNDRAISER! @ 1 to 5 PM ET (Last healing or reading begins at 4:45 PM) Still $15 for 15-minute healings and readings.

Late August, 2018. =============================================== 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.
Prayers for all those who have experienced violence and abuse. Prayers for areas affected by recent natural disasters around the globe.   It is a pleasure for us to serve Spirit and our community.
