They are usually on the first and third Saturdays of the month, but this may not always be the case. If anything changes concerning our in-person services, we will let you know. 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: [email protected] ------------------------------------- In-Person MEDIUMSHIP CLASS meets on the first and third Tuesdays of each month at UUFSB.* The Rev. Frank Kotowski is directing this mediumship class at UUFSB in East Setauket from 7-9 PM. This class is open to everyone, but it would help if you had some experience in intuitive and mediumistic work.

If you are interested in attending in-person classes please email us: [email protected] ------------------------------------- SCOL's WRITERS CLUB meets on the third Monday of each month from 7 to 9 pm on Zoom.* This Writing Club is for SCOL members and anyone interested in writing to share their short creative works (poetry, essays, short stories, inspirational pieces) with others in a friendly and supportive environment.

If you are interested in attending this club please email us: [email protected] ---------------------------------------- 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. Ebony and family Danielle S. Dolores M Loralei S Theresa F. and family Mary C. Linda and Larry B. Stephanie B. and family Ron G. Mary C. Camille J. and Chrissy and family Eileen W. Lindy C. Fran D. Brad H. Bill B. Alexandria K. Helena R. Amy V. and Lucy V. Fernwood M. Jane R. John C. Eileen T. Valerie M. Frank K. Yolanda S. and Quasin E. Gaza – Ukraine – United States  Prayers for all those who have experienced violence and abuse. Prayers for areas affected by recent natural disasters around the globe. Prayers for all those who are affected by recent and on-going wars. ------------------------------------- Prayer for the Middle East Creator, you are our Provider and Healer. We pray that Your timely help and support reach all who are in need. There is so much sorrow, pain, and conflict across the Middle East. We pray for leaders throughout the region and ask You to turn their minds and hearts toward peace. Online prayer modified by Valerie. To request that a name or situation be placed on this healing list, please send a note to: [email protected] --------------------------------------  -------------------------------------- From the Astrodienst February newsletter: On 26 February Mercury turns retrograde. Agreements and contracts now require caution. Make sure your communication is clear. The square between Mars in Aquarius and Uranus in Taurus on 27 February brings considerable restlessness. During the last days of the month events may come thick and fast, and technical glitches may accumulate. In general there is an increased risk of accidents. Plan flexibly and avoid actions taken on impulse. On 28 February Mercury and Venus conjoin in Pisces, creating a strong counterpoint to this restless quality of time. Meditation, listening to your inner voice or deliberate exchange with kindred spirits can now become a safe haven in stormy times. www.astro.com -------------------------------------- In peace and harmony, Valerie Miller SCOL Secretary Comments are closed.
