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.

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.
