POT LUCK
Artist, Sue Russell, presented some insights to what makes up art. It’s not just a landscape or a portrait; it expresses feelings or seeing things from a different angle. It’s something that is created with imagination and skill, is beautiful and/or expresses important ideas or emotions. Sue expressed these
ideas with a few chalk marks on paper that she transformed into a sea of faces. It’s seeing things that others may not see. Clint Owings, a friend of hers, did some good natured heckling of her work and was eventually rewarded with Sue cleaning her chalky hands on his face. It was all in good fun.
The potluck itself was very good. We welcomed quite a few newcomers. Everyone is welcome at our potlucks. You only need to bring a dish or desert to share at 6:15 pm before the line forms at 6:30pm.
INTERNATIONAL DAY OF YOGA CELEBRATION
At Cedar Mountain Community Center June 21st, 4:30-5:30pm . Free and open to all ages 8 years old and above.
Human beings are the only creatures on earth who have the ability to become aware of their consciousness. This Classical Hatha Yoga session is an offering to honor the conscious beings who have transmitted the yogic sciences for thousands of years in many different ways for human well-being. Apart from the scientific theory and demonstration, you will learn a simple set of sitting/standing practices for alertness, memory and sharpness. Walk-ins are welcome but please be seated by 4:30pm. Session will start on time to respect people who are on time. Sign up at https://www.originaw.com/service-page/international-day-of-yoga?referral=service_list_widget

Each Sunday, we have clergy from different churches that visit us to lead the service and we are blessed also to have great music to accompany the great message!
This Sunday, Faith Memorial Chapel welcomes The Rev. Dr. Pamela Cole. Pamela is an ordained minister in the Presbyterian Church (ECO) and her goal for ministry is to serve Christ and to be conformed to his image. The Stuckey Family will provide selections of music.

AROUND THE HOUSE by Linda Packer Young
We are still awaiting estimates for our primary bath renovation. We made a “monumental” step in that direction on Tuesday by buying a faucet for the (to be) new sink. At least it’s progress?
