SIUSLAW NEWS | SATURDAY, DECEMBER 21, 2019 | 5A FUUF to honor Winter Solstice this Sunday On Sunday, Dec. 22, be- ginning at 10 a.m. at the Florence Unitarian Uni- versalist Fellowship, Dr. Rev. Ruth Miller will lead the service titled: “Celebra- tions of Light.” Long before the New Testament stories were written, people all over the northern hemisphere hon- ored the nights around the winter solstice. Jews and Celts, Greeks and Romans, and more peoples, everywhere, cele- brated the birth of the Son of the Sun. They did so in many beautiful and mysti- cal ways — some of which will be practiced this Sun- day at FUUF, honoring several holidays that are all happening at once this year. Bring evergreen branch- es to place on an altar and your favorite holiday treat for refreshments after the service. FUUF, 87738 Highway 101 at Heceta Beach Road, is wheelchair accessible. Each service concludes with refreshments and a dialogue circle to explore the questions that come up during each worship ser- vice.
