Thanks to those who came out for Samhain 2017! We had a lot of fun. You can find more pictures here.
Thanks also to those who attended the November 5 monthly meeting. Here’s the notes if you missed it.
RITUALS
Samhain: It went well and was well received. Thanks for all the feedback!
Yule: We now move on to planning for the Winter Solstice evening service and the Annual Yule Vigil. If you would like to help with these events, please email mysticgrove@orlandouu.org
Imbolc: We are currently working with Twisted Oak who will be our guest ritual leaders for this event. Details soon!
CLASSES CONTINUE
Tarot 2: Minor Arcana is about half way done but it is not too late to join the Facebook Group version and take the class as an “at home player.”
Requiem Class on 2nd Fridays might be the class for you if you need help getting your personal affairs in order. The next session is Nov 11. This study group is “work at your pace” so just bring your planner and jump in on whatever tab we’re discussing next. Class is free, and either of the two suggested planners are $12 on amazon.
Circle of Song is a new “drop in” friendly class on 2nd Saturdays from 1 PM – 3 PM if you would like to learn to sing in a family friendly environment. This is “easy choir” for the non-singers and experienced singers wanting to play! Childcare is provided on the coop model. If you are bringing a child or grandchild, please RSVP over email with your name and ages of children so we can have enough supplies in the Kid’s Club. The next session is November 18. Please Note the date change due to the 1U Open House.
3rd Sunday Movie Nite
Our 3rd Sunday movie nite will come back in the Spring Term now that we are settling into the newly remodeled spaces. We are taking suggestions for the Spring Term movie list. If you have ideas? Email us!
OTHER UU NEWS
1U Open House
Come check out our newly renovated campus on November 11 from 11:00 am – 2:00 pm!
There will be food trucks, lawn games, mini-campus tours, a bounce house for kids, and live music. Please attend, and bring your family, friends and neighbors.
This year’s convocation is in Ft. Meyers. Some of the speakers are John Beckett and Jerrie Hildebrand. The event is about many earth and nature centered traditions. There will also be vendors and a table to purchase your chapter’s CUUPS materials. Rituals will be led by the CUUPS Chapter in Ft. Myers.
Several Mystic Grove members are thinking about going. Would you also like to come?
All are welcome to attend from CUUPS, to the UU universe to the local and regional earth/nature centered and Pagan communities in Florida.
