Dear Friends,
Here is the latest information about our church and its believed community. This information is being furnished as there was a suggestion for a note to be sent to advise congregants about our upcoming worship services and events. Hope that this is helpful to you.
Congratulations, Summerland!
We are mentioned in the New Yorker Magazine May 31 print issue! Someone from the New Yorker called Frank last month as part of a fact-checking process. This person mentioned that our Summerland Church was going to be included in an article about Spiritualism! SCOL is mentioned briefly in a list of contemporary churches at the end of the article (third paragraph from the end). What an honor this is! This is a first!
This article is really a book review, but seems to have a good perspective. We are mentioned with the Golden Gate Spiritualist church in San Francisco, home base of Frank’s and my friend Joe Owen and his deceased partner Rev. James Earhardt, writer of many Spiritualist manuals, and two other churches.
I subscribe to the online magazine and am thrilled to share the article with you. Maybe we can have a Discovery Circle about this article soon! Enjoy!

New Moon & Annular Solar Eclipse

An annular eclipse will be visible from much of North America, including New York City, at sunrise Thursday morning. Such eclipses occur when the Moon is too far away to completely block the sun, according to NASA.
"Since the Moon does not block the entire view of the Sun, it will look like a dark disk on top of a larger, bright disk," a NASA release states. "This creates what looks like a ring of fire around the Moon." Because the NY area will be at a slightly off angle from the full eclipse, the Moon will only partially cover the sun. It'll appear like a crescent lying on its back, according to Space.com. PLEASE NOTE: DO NOT LOOK AT THE SUN WiTHOUT SPECIAL ECLIPSE EYEWEAR
Thursday June 10 @ 7:30 PM Zoom
