SIUSLAW NEWS | SATURDAY, DECEMBER 28, 2019 | 5A Florence Unitarians to Florence Masons install 2020 officers contemplate resolutions On Sunday, Dec. 29, be- ginning at 10 a.m. at the Florence Unitarian Univer- salist Fellowship, Katherine Hemmens will lead a Burn- ing Bowl Ceremony. Hemmens asks, “Do you ever wonder why our New Year’s resolutions lose mo- mentum so quickly? Per- haps it’s because we don’t take the time to release what no longer works for us, be- fore adding another expec- tation for ourselves. Perhaps rituals have lost their mean- ing in our modern lives or may carry unwelcome bag- gage from earlier religious influences. However, rituals are just a mental construct to signify a passage in life or further a vision of our next endeavor. We choose the significance, the inter- pretation. This is where the empowerment lies.” Paper and pencils will be provided; people may want to contemplate the aspects of their life that no longer work for you. “Plan to release them with a blessing,” Hemmens suggests. The fellowship is located at 87738 Highway 101 at Heceta Beach Road and is wheelchair accessible. Each service concludes with re- freshments and a dialogue circle to explore the ques- tions that come up during each worship service.

Florence Budget Committee members are vital to supporting the city’s budget process by providing citizen in- put and listening to and understanding public comments before the committee. The committee re- views the proposed op- erating and capital bud- get during the two-year budget cycle and makes a recommendation to the Florence City Council for final approval. This generally entails a time ter/early spring to kick off the budget process, and 2-3 meetings in the late spring to review the final budget document and provide for public comments and testimo- ny on the proposal. The Budget Com- mittee may also meet at other times through- out the year on items of particular interest to the city’s overall financial strategies and long-term financial plans. Applications can be completed via www. ci.florence.or.us and are available at Florence City Hall, 250 Highway 101, during regular business hours. COME PARTY AT OUR PLACE!
