John Denver Sunday
May 20th
Sunday 10 am Service
“All that is God, all that we need to know to have civilization work is within each of us. We need only be true to what we know and who we are.” John Denver
The spirit of John Denver continues to touch deeply the lives of millions worldwide. John believed in the oneness of all life and he reached out to all through his music. It has been said that in listening to John Denver sing, a vibration is felt which reaches deep into the soul and heart of those who are open to the message—the message of peace on Earth, of caring and sharing with each other as a family of man.
John Denver is a candle that lights the way. His message to us is simple; you do what you can do. It can be as simple as picking up the litter you see as you walk along the street, or to see the beauty of a sunset and share it with your child. It doesn’t have to be something big, yet if each of us does something every day to reach out to those around us, we are making a difference.
On Sunday, May 20th, please come and join us as we celebrate the music of John Denver as performed by Dennis Warner, Cristina Seaborn, Allen Brisse, Jack Richter and Anna Kotschevar. In addition to the music, Rev. Barbara Winter Martin will be discussing the spiritual meanings behind some of his most popular songs..

Along the Way – Transformation Through Difficult Times…
Relationship, Resilience, Respite, Renewal (The 4 Rs)
Facilitated by Susan Holmen, LICSW, ICADC
Saturday June 2nd – 9-3:00 pm
Soul Retrieval Workshop
“Soul is known by all indigenous cultures to be a vital experience of healing, when the world steals a person’s energy and inner peace. The challenges of caregiving, loss, addiction or codependency, illness, chronic pain, disappointment or transitions can tax our resources and cause us to “lose ourselves.” Taking the time to tell your story, dance, sing and embrace silence can allow healing and restoration to occur.
- The 4 Rs—
- Relationship
- Resilience
- Respite
- Renewal
This workshop will address, through The 4 Rs, such topics as self- awareness, barriers to growth, “present hope and future hope,” spirituality, self-care; incorporating music, meditation, information, movement, journaling and sharing.
Susan Holmen, LICSW, a psychotherapist in private practice, offers this workshop as the first in a series of events to lead you back to your inner wisdom and calmness. Utilizing concepts that draw from a number of sources, as well as her own model of the 4 Rs and her personal experience, Susan will create an opportunity for transformation, whatever your current life challenge.
$70 Per Person ($65 each should you bring a friend)
Lunch Included
Chair Massages Available ($1 per minute)

Afternoon Tea with Eric Butterworth
Thursdays 2-3:30pm
Feel free to join us anytime. Newcomers are always welcome.
We are currently studying Eric Butterworth’s book Breaking The Ten Commandments. Join us for conversation over tea and coffee.
What is the spirit of the law behind each of the Ten Commandments? Take a closer look and rediscover the Ten Commandments as Butterworth reveals, in easy-to-understand terms, the deeper meaning behind the words. You may already claim to live by the Tem Commandments, but do you live from them? Butterworth encourages you to break the Ten Commandments, not through sinning, but by cutting through archaic language to unlock “hidden” meanings in biblical text. In doing so, the Commandments become more than a set of laws decreed by a divine dictator.
