Thank you !!  We are asking for donations at this time during our online and hybrid church services to support our work and to allow us to continue through these troubling times. We are meeting less often in person so we have less opportunity to collect donations in person 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.

Happy Diwali

Tuesday October 21
New Moon in Libra

On October 21st, the New Moon occurs in Libra, prompting a new beginning. It’s a time for taking charge of our relationships and giving them their due attention, as well as working on our negotiation and partnering skills. The resolution of conflicts is in focus and the objective.
Because this lunation is square Jupiter and Pluto, we should watch for exaggeration and excess. However, we do need a fresh start. Shooting too high or too far won’t help us achieve our goals sooner. Read more about this New Moon on its calendar page.

Hybrid SCOL SERVICES: Our church is having two hybrid services a month now (services that are in-person at UUFSB and also live-streamed on Zoom) . 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]

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.
