SIUSLAW NEWS | SATURDAY, JULY 14, 2018 | 5A Spirituali-Tea to explore 4 kinds of love FUUF set to find ‘That Magic Place’ Sunday On Sunday, July 15, from 10 until 11 a.m., the Rev. Stephen Landale will lead the worship service at the Florence Unitarian Universalist Fellowship. His top- ic will be “That Magic Place.” Landale asks, “Do you suffer from ‘topophilia,’ which is the love of a particular place?” He will reflect on sacred places in our lives — in nature, litera- ture, and even those we co-create — using his own experiences. After a dozen years of UU par- ish ministry in New England and Eugene, Landale is now complet- ing his sixth year as a hospice chaplain in Oregon. The fellowship is located at 87738 Highway 101 at Heceta Beach Road and is wheelchair accessible. Each service concludes with refreshments and a dialogue cir- cle to explore the questions that come up during each worship service. For more information, visit www.florenceuuf.org On Monday, July 16, begin- ning at 6:30 p.m., all are invit- ed to join a group of people who enjoy finding the common grounds in diverse spiritual thoughts and paths. The meeting is at 875 Seventh St. in Florence. The topic is Four Kinds of Love. The Baha’i Writings say, “There are four kinds of love. The first is the love that flows from God to man; it consists of the inexhaustible graces, the Divine effulgence and heavenly illumination. Through this love the world of being receives life.” The second is the love that flows from man to God. This is faith, the origin of all philan- thropy; this love causes the hearts of men to reflect the rays of the Sun of Reality, the writing say. The third is the love of God to- wards the self or identity of God. “This is the transfiguration of His Beauty, the reflection of Himself in the mirror of His Creation. This is the reality of love, the Ancient Love, the Eter- nal Love. Through one ray of this Love all other love exists.” The fourth is the love of man for man. The love which exists between the hearts of believers is prompted by the ideal of the unity of spirits. “This love is attained through the knowledge of God, so that men see the Divine Love reflect- ed in the heart.” Bring thoughts on the subject for open discussion. The gathering will end at 8 p.m. with prayers for the re- quests left in the Prayer Pole in the garden of the Florence Play- house and those shared by the group.

DUNES CITY from page 1A and squaring them with state regulations. One regulation includes a requirement for applicants to show the water source that will serve the property, a hotly de- bated topic last year. Other requirements include ensuring that all doorways, windows and openings shall be screened, proper security mea- sures be enacted and that noise from the facilities be reduced. The ordinance also makes a distinction between growing marijuana and actually process- ing it, with growers being al- lowed in residential zones, and processors regulated to com- mercial zones. A grow operation consists of five or more plants. Citizens can grow up to four plants on their property without running afoul of the regulations. The ordinance is not retroac- tive, and those marijuana grow sites already within city limits will not be subject to the new rules. If complaints arise for those businesses, city officials must rely on existing nuisance laws or referrals to the OLCC. “I think this is good because there is a chance that Dunes City could go against what we proposed on the ballot, so this is a good safety net,” Councilor Duke Wells said. In other news, the council named the Dunes City Volun- teer of the Year award to Stan and Ann Anderson, who were instrumental in recruiting 19 boy scouts and team leaders to volunteer for this year’s Oregon Dunes Triathlon. Those volun- teers helped the city meet the minimum number of volun- teers needed for the event for the first time in the history of the triathlon. The ordinance does not go into effect until Nov. 7, one day after election day. If the vot- ers do not approve marijuana growing and production in the city, the effects of the ordinance will be void. For months, the city’s plan- ning commission and advisory committee have been working on the language of the ordi- nance, taking into consider- ation many concerns from the public and Dunes City Council, J OIN U S I N W ORSHIP BAY BERRY CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP FLORENCE SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST Friday Evenings – 7 p.m. SINGSPIRATION You are invited to come and sing your favorite Ole Time Gospel songs.
