Our on-going first Wednesday crafting time now includes a mix of skill sets including laughter, camaraderie & a break from routine. Mark your calendar to join us the first Wednesday of each month as we morph into broader directions beyond just painting rocks (which continues). Exploring Creativity is energizing. Bring your project, lunch & beverage & drop in between 11:30 - 2:00 to participate. No host; no RSVP needed; set-up/clean-up is shared; just roll on over & see what is born.

Our quality of life for the rest of our life will be determined by our health. If we don't take active measures both will deteriorate. Come join us for little known information, resources and protocols for pushing back on aging and improving health. NO medical advice will be provided.
Topics and themes will be selected based on group interest. This month topics will be "How to Increase Restorative Sleep" and "Sleep Apnea."
The group will be facilitated by Marty Gronewald, a Functional Medicine Health Coach. Contact Marty at marty@RevitalizeRestore.com or 760-238-0082 for more info and reference materials.
Introduced by the Social Justice Committee in January 2023. Donate formula, which will be given to Galilee Center for distribution to their families with babies.
Why donate formula rather than money? Due to shortages, stores have been setting tight limits on the number of cans per purchase. Our donations help Galilee Center hand out more formula each month to families with babies who are unable to buy it on their own.

Drawing from Heritage and Tradition is a beautifully vast invitation for this August. Each of us can go deep and far with that prompt. Currently, I am occupied by our national news. I hope to draw forth some useful insights as we live these times. I look forward to being in your pulpit and sharing the morning with you.
Join Gustavo Wong in the Community Room for Tai Chi classes.
