This Sunday, January 25-RITES OF PASSAGE: THE WHITE STONE: CELEBRATING THE COMING OF AGE AND WISDOM - This forum will focus on the need we feel for rituals in our lives to mark the gateways between different phases of life. Religions and culture in American society have marked some familiar rituals for stages of life while other of life's stages, for example, couples getting divorced, veterans leaving military service, are not addressed.
We will look at the need for some new rituals to celebrate those life-affecting changes, and celebrate together the coming of age and wisdom as crones and wizards in the White Stone Celebration rite of passage. "To everyone who conquers, I will give some of the hidden manna, and I will give a white stone and on the white stone is written a new name that on one knows except the one who receives it." (Rev. 2:17) Come join us, celebrate and find your true wise and new You!
Romella Hart-O'Keefe will lead us in this celebration. Co-coordinator of the forums, she is an ordained minister. She has created and conducted many Croning ceremonies honoring women who are ready to join the Wise Woman phase of life.
Also, immediately following worship will be the Annual Meeting. Please plan to attend.
