WRITERS GROUP

Tuesday, April 16^th from 5-6:30 PM

The Wayfarers Writers Group, facilitated by Sam Renken, is open to writers of all ages, genres, and experience levels. Each week, participants share their writings with the group. They also receive a new prompt/topic for writing to be shared the following week. It is a wonderful opportunity to challenge and express your creativity. The group meets from 5-6:30 every Tuesday in RoseMary's Chapel.

REIKI

Wednesday, April 17th, from 4-6 PM

If you or a friend are seeking greater peace and well-being, join us Wednesday, April 17th from 4-6 PM in the main chapel for a brief yet highly relaxing session with one of our Reiki practitioners.

WRITERS GROUP SPECIAL READING

Friday, April 19^th from 7-9 PM

The Wayfarers Writers Group is an incredible group of writers - each one with an independent and important voice for our community. During this event, 12 writers will be presenting 2-3 of their works. We will take a 15-minute break 45 minutes into the event and the last 15 minutes of the evening will be devoted to sharing refreshments provided by the writers.

This is an amazing opportunity to hear the voices of artists in your community. There is no charge for the event; however, the Writers Group does encourage generous donations to Wayfarers' Chapel for the use of the fine space for weekly meetings and quarterly readings!

SPECIAL EARTH DAY SERVICE

BUTTERFLY RELEASE

Sunday, April 21st at 10 AM

DRUM CIRCLE

Sunday, April 21st, 6-8 PM

Ready for an adventure?! Come join the Drum Circle at Wayfarers Chapel on Sunday, April 21^st from 6-8 PM in the main chapel. This is a great opportunity to experience the power of shared rhythm while still moving to the beat of your own drum! If you have a drum, bring it. If not, no worries, we have plenty of drums and other rhythm instruments to go around. No rhythm? No worries - it's in there! And we'll help you find it!!!! See you Sunday.

LAST WEEK

We enjoyed singing along with Katharine Brown, Nate and Gail Anderson, Chris Casses, and Anne Hartupee. Then, after a short time of meditation, we listened with heart and mind to Alison Solomon's message, "The Sound of Our Own Voice."

Alison's talk will be available online shortly.

THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK

True silence is the rest of the mind;

and is to the spirit,

what sleep is to the body,

nourishment and refreshment.

– William Penn, 1644-1718
