SIUSLAW NEWS | SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 2018 | 5A Goodwill to support Eclectic musician set to rock the FEC veterans this week funds received during the Round Up for Stand Down to further support the veterans in our community. Goodwill has a Veterans Em- ployment Specialist to provide Job Connections services at its Seneca location. Unitarian Universalists discuss ‘Law of Attraction’ On Sunday, Sept. 2, from 10 un- til 11 a.m., at the Florence Unitar- ian Universalist Fellowship, Rev. Dr. Marcia Pearce will lead the worship service entitled “Laugh- ter and the Law of Attraction.” “Many of us have heard of the Law of Attraction, read the book or seen the movie,” Pearce said. “However, do we grasp the real significance of this law, or try only to correct ourselves when it becomes obvious we have failed to use it?” Desiring to attract a mate, start a new love life, climb the ladder of success etc., are goals that seem to work well with this idea of a Law of Attraction. But what about more subtle ideas, such as peace of mind, courage, wisdom, faith, simple good for- tune and the joy of good health? Pearce believes, “All of these warm and encouraging ideas are available to us, and lift us into the realm of love, life, light and laughter.” The fellowship is located at 87738 Highway 101 at Heceta Beach Road and is wheelchair accessible. Each service con- cludes with refreshments and a dialogue circle to explore the questions that come up during each worship service. For more information, visit www.florenceuuf.org.

The meeting is at 875 Seventh St. in Florence. This week, the Spirituali-Tea group will discuss the soul re- maining intact despite the loss of mental and physical faculties. The Writings of the Baha’i Faith say: “Know thou that the soul of man is exalted above, and is independent of all infirmities of body or mind. That a sick per- son showeth signs of weakness is due to the hindrances that in- terpose themselves between his soul and his body, for the soul it- self remaineth unaffected by any bodily ailments.” This is also the case for anyone with a mental or physical im- pairment, and not just relevant to the elderly. But when demen- tia or sudden illness strikes and robs our loved ones of their fac- ulties, we are in shock and find it hard to accept that they are now changed forever, said group member James Heintz. In the Baha’i Writings, Heintz has found that the constant and unchanging nature of the soul has been described as being like the sun, and the mental faculties as rays that emanate from the sun. When the rays fail to em- anate, it does not mean the sun has ceased to exist, merely that the mirror that is the temple of man has ceased to be able to re- flect its glory. “So our challenge now is this: how do we relate on the level of soul to soul when all our lives we are used to relating to people through our minds and our in- tellects?” Heintz asked. 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. For more information, contact Suzanne Mann-Heintz at 541- 590-0616. Class explores ‘Where we go when we die’ “Where do we go when we die?” “What happens to us when we breathe our last breath?” These are questions that ev- eryone has pondered. The world offers many answers to those J OIN U S I N W ORSHIP BAY BERRY CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP shows and at bluegrass festi- vals. In addition, he has scored three motion pictures and three ABC television spe- cials and been awarded "Musi- cian of the Year" eight times at the Inspirational Country Music Awards in Nash- ville Tennessee. Agajanian is well known as a featured musician for the Billy Graham Crusades and has a heart to bring that same gos- pel message through out his concert tour.

Yet others say we simply cease to exist. But what does God’s Word tell us about eternity? Bible be- lievers don’t have to engage in these guessing games because they can know the answers to the questions of not only where they came from, but also where they are going.
