Autumn Remembrance
Rev. Mike Morran
|
Join us on Sunday, October 27th at 10:30 am. An annual tradition, we will honor those who have passed beyond the veil and their presence in our lives. Everyone is invited to bring a memento of someone they have lost and remember.
This Sunday is our annual Day of Remembrance, which is an intergenerational service. This space is for everyone. Please be patient with our young congregants, as they engage in services in different, often more energetic, ways than we do as adults. Our children will be used as assistants, handing everyone a leaf and a pencil as adults enter the sanctuary. On your leaf, please take a moment to honor a loved one by writing a special memory about them. If you are comfortable, you are welcome to bring your leaf to the altar during the service when prompted.

Collected Poems by Sonia Sanchez
Published by Beacon Press, this collection represents the life and work of Sonia Sanchez, an honored poet, a founder of the Black Arts movement, and – as Maya Angelou puts it – “ a lion in literature’s forest”. The collection inspires and engages. It speaks to Sanchez’s dedication to human liberation, social equality, and human rights. All forms are represented – haikus to book-length narratives.
Stop by Miriam’s during coffee hour and browse the book.

We are looking forward to our Intergenerational service on October 27th; there will be no RE classes that morning. We have planned some fun ways to engage our littlest congregants during the Day of Remembrance service. If your family has lost a loved one (human or pet), you can begin conversations with your child about our special service before the 27th. Families are encouraged to bring a photo or item on that day that can be shared during the service to honor a loved one.
Our Nursery is open for business! Thanks to Mary Hilken for volunteering to serve in our Nursery this Sunday and every Sunday in November. Children under the age of 3 are welcome! Please enroll your child through Breeze using this form. This information will help us with important information about you and your child before s/he starts.
Shout Out to this week’s Volunteer Superhero, Charlotte Braud-Kern! Charlotte has been a member of FUSD for 20+ years and has been instrumental in helping us get our RE program restarted this Fall. Her experience as an educator and her willingness to fill in wherever needed, in addition to serving on the RE Committee and helping to plan upcoming events, make her invaluable to our RE team. We are blessed to have you, Charlotte! Thanks for ALL you!
