03/25/2010 - 12:00pm 03/25/2010 - 1:30pm Etc/GMT-4 THE PRESENCE PROCESS - Book Study Group Thursday, March 25 at Noon we will be beginning a 12 week intensive book study with Michael Brown's "The Presence Process: A Healing Journey Into Present Moment Awareness." This book is an amazing tool that will take us through a process dedicated to bringing us more into the present moment. Through breathing exercises, presence activating statements, and weekly readings, we will be guided through the release of the emotional baggage that keeps us from dwelling in the present. Several Fellowshipians have been through the process one or more times, and will be going through the process again with the group to move even deeper into healing. The group will meet at the Fellowship offices once a week, with the rest of the work done on an individual basis. There is space for 8 people willing to commit to 12 weeks of intensive inner work. For more details contact facilitators Denise Wootton at thewoots@hotmail.com or Brad Miller at bradmiller3842@yahoo.com. If the class fills, or you would like to start a group in the evening, call as well. Books will be available for purchase from the Fellowship bookstore. Love offering. |

"THE WORK" INQUIRY CIRCLE Second Wednesday of each Month - 7 to 8:30 pm Join facilitator Deb Canja and other students of The Work to experience the power of The Work in a group setting at the Fellowship offices, 2722 E. Michigan Ave., Ste. 101, Lansing Clear your mind of stressful thoughts, change unwanted behaviors, heal stressful relationships and find the peace you seek by participating in an Inquiry Circle based upon The Work of Byron Katie. The Work is a process that clears the mind. It is simple, radical and life changing. It requires no particular religious or spiritual beliefs - just a desire to increase one's peace and joy. Prior to attending an Inquiry Circle evening, participants should have attended Workshop I with Deb Canja or The School for The Work with Byron Katie, or have read Katie's book "Loving What Is" or practiced doing The Work online at www.thework.com. There is no fee for attending. For more information contact Deb Canja at deb@bridges4kids.org or the Fellowship office. | ||||

2010 Annual Membership Meeting Update Thanks go out to all who attended and participated in our 2010 Annual Membership Meeting. Two important decisions were made: 1) On our Mission Slogan: Learning . Living . Love 2) The Fellowship will begin the process which will result in hiring our next Fellowship Minister!! We also want to mention that a highlight of the evening was the Slide Show of the Fellowship in Action during the last year....it was a joy to experience. Stay tuned for more on FFT happenings as we take our next big steps.

Food Bank Sunday will be the second Sunday of each month. The idea is for each of us to bring any type of food that can be stored without refrigeration to church on that Sunday. There will be 3 half bushel baskets up front and you can go to the front and place your can in the basket before or just following the service second Sunday. Our goal will be to fill them each time. This activity is based on suggestions from FFT members during the Wagon Circling meetings held last June 26 and 27. Several members had the idea to find ways to contribute from our abundance by taking action in our larger community. | ||||
Joel Goldsmith Study Group A new Joel Goldsmith Study Group has begun at the Fellowship offices on Tuesdays at 3:30 pm. The format is essentially meditation and listening to a lecture by Joel. All are invited to attend. | ||||

Montessori Children's House Benefit Anyone with products or gift certificates for services you want to promote? -- I am seeking donations for the Annual Spaghetti Supper and SILENT AUCTION for the Montessori Children's House where my grandson attends. www.mchlansing.org There will be about 400 people at the fundraiser -- parents and grandparents of small children, mostly I think, "audience wise." They want to "bundle" donations into "items" with a value of $150 -- so I'm thinking "theatre gift certificate bundle" would be great -- or certificates for classes at MMFT, Ruhala, or All-of-us Express -- and, of course, you can send brochures or the like to be set out at the event for publicity. The event is March 26, but the deadline for donations is MARCH 19. Let me know and I can pick up -- or you could mail stuff to me. Jane Zussman, 517-323-6855 | ||||
