SUMMARY:Open Circle and Community Brunch
DESCRIPTION:On the first Sundays of the month\, we combine our Open Circle Gathering with a community potluck brunch.\n\nWe gather and connect in a more relaxed\, less structured way\, yet with threads of meaning and spirituality tying it all together.\n\n\nYou’re welcome\, if it would bring you joy\, to contribute a food or drink item to share as part of the community brunch. Another option is to bring non-perishable food or toiletry items for our free mini-pantry.\n\nOur community is finding a creative place in the spiritual world\, where new forms of spiritual practice\, artistic expression\, and self-awareness are emerging to support humanity to meet the challenges of our times. We are finding balance within ourselves\, making peace across differences\, and stepping up to protect the Earth.\n\nWe welcome folks of all beliefs and backgrounds to build community with us as we align around a hopeful sense of common purpose.

Led by educator and community leader Deborah Mitchell\, this program offers a space to study African American history through autobiographies\, guided lesson plans\, book discussions\, and presentations from guest speakers. \nParticipants will explore the stories\, struggles\, creativity\, and contributions that have shaped African American life in the United States and beyond. Sessions may include storytelling\, music\, and artistic expression that illuminate the historical journey and cultural traditions of African Americans. \nThe program will also provide space to examine current policy issues affecting African American communities today. Through dialogue and shared learning\, the gathering aims to serve as a thoughtful forum—a place where people of all races\, creeds\, and denominations can engage deeply with history while reflecting on the challenges and possibilities of the present. \nAfrican American Saturday School is also intended to inspire the next generation of leaders by connecting historical knowledge with a sense of responsibility for the future. \nThe program is open and free to the public. A goodwill offering is welcome but not required. Books and African-American-inspired artwork by local\, regional\, and international artists will also be available for purchase. \nAll are welcome to join this ongoing space for learning\, culture\, and community. \nhttps://us04web.zoom.us/j/79271727876?pwd=jH2IwocPAkBHIjwTvWspESRFg98lPn.1 \nMeeting ID: 792 7172 7876\nPasscode: V11P67
