SIUSLAW NEWS ❚ SATURDAY, MAY 20, 2017 ‘Awakening Peace’ event May 28 at Senior Center Florence’s fourth annual “Awakening Peace” event will be held on Sunday, May 28, from noon to 4 p.m., at the Florence Senior Center located at 1570 Kingwood St. in Florence. The purpose of the event is to reflect on and experience peace both individually and collectively. Featured artists include Siuslaw’s Indian Education Program Drummers and Dancers with Lynn Anderson. MaryBeth Nickel, story- teller, harpist and flautist, will be performing along FUUF discusses energy and the healing process with percussionists Rodney Turner, Jim Harder and oth- ers. There will be a Native American smudging upon entering with Elder Julie Belcher and Sarah Bower accompanied by Bruce Jarvis on flute. There will also be a Children’s Table and Face Painting by Susan Peavey. Bring your own lunch or snacks. Come for an hour or the whole afternoon. The Baha’i community of Florence is sponsoring this event. There is no charge and everyone is welcome. On Sunday, May 21, from 10 to 11 a.m. at the Florence Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, Rev. Dr. Marcia Pierce will lead the worship service titled “Our Marvelous Minds: Thought as Energy and Its Part in the Healing Process.” For many years science and religion have been slowly moving closer together. There is a strong connection between the spiritual and religious world and there is also a great deal of logic in what’s now called ‘New Thought Teachings.’ Pearce will talk about the amazing expansiveness of the power of mind, and how we might use it more to bless and uplift our world. The UU Fellowship, located at 87738 Highway 101 at Heceta Beach Road, is wheelchair accessible. Each service concludes with refreshments and a dia- logue circle to explore the questions that come up dur- ing each service. Every Sunday evening at 5:30 p.m, Jim Tubesing leads Peaceful Meditations at the Fellowship Hall. For YouTube videos of past worship service, visit FUUF's website at www. florenceuuf. org.

Bahai’ to examine the concept of susceptibility On Monday, May 22, at 6:30 p.m., at 875 Seventh St., everyone is invited to join a group from varied spiritual paths to discuss susceptibility. The Baha’i Writings say: “Sterile soil will produce noth- ing, even if the cloud of mercy pours rain upon it a thousand years. We must make the soil of our hearts receptive and fer- tile by tilling in order that the rain of divine mercy may refresh them and bring forth roses and hyacinths of heaven- ly planting. “We must have perceiving eyes in order to see the light of 541-999-5083 the sun.” Therefore, we must ever strive for capacity and seek readiness. As long as we lack susceptibility, the beauties and bounties of God cannot pene- trate. The public is invited to bring stories about personal efforts to be spirituality atten- tive. The gathering will end at 8 p.m. with prayers for the requests left in the Prayer Pole in the garden of the Florence Playhouse, and those shared by the group at the service.
