Dear Friends,
Today I went to the Woman's Club to make sure everything was going to be ready for us to meet there on Sunday. Our new Assistant Minister, Rev. Maurene, was there with me and so was our Administrator, Jan, but somehow or other Rev. Ahmondra ended up at the office instead of at the Club -- but never one to be idle -- she decided to take the tablecloths home to wash! What a fabulous crew we have!
I think everything is pretty well organized... Angel Nava is coming to help with set-up and make coffee. Norm and Nicki will be our official greeters. Rev. Ahmondra will lead our meditation and preside. I'm giving the talk (and I'm quite sure it will be written by then.) Ruth Anne is bringing flowers and Rev. Maurene is bringing cookies. I'm so happy that Michael Paul Smith is able to sing for us - that guarantees that the day will be lovely!
Of course, I think I'm looking forward to just "being together" again most of all!
So come if you can... come as you are... come in a mask, or without one if you want... bring a friend if you'd like... come at 9:25 and join the meditation... or come at 9:55 for just the service... Just come and say hello whenever you can!
Don't forget to bring a sweater, as it may be chilly inside the big room this Sunday.
Of course, if you can't join us in person, please know that you are loved and we will still keep posting online.
SEE YOU SOON!
Rev. Kate DuVivier
Spiritual Director CSL Carlsbad

The Power of Intention
by Bené Raphael, Spiritual Practitioner
When we set an intention at the beginning of each day we are able to enter into that day with a high energy and positive outlook. Getting into the habit of setting an intention every day allows us to change our thoughts and live a more happy and joyous life. And it opens the way for Source to create more good in our lives.

This Week's Meditation Suggestion:
From Living The Science of Mind, by Ernest Holmes, p. 159
As I look out into my world I see that there is nothing to fear. And as I look back into my own mind I know there is nothing in me that is afraid. My thought is filled with confidence, with hope, with trust, and with the acceptance of Good.
I expect the mirror of my experience to be filled with joy, and as I turn the magic lantern of my mind into the great Mind and Spirit of the Universe in which all things exist, I know that I am One with all Peace, all Power, and all Good.
I affirm the presence of Good in everything I do, the guidance of Love everywhere I go. I affirm that strength, enthusiasm, and vitality forever flow through me from the all-sustaining Life of the Universe.
I affirm my union with God, and I know that there is nothing in the entire Universe to be afraid of, nothing to avoid, nothing to run away from. I am at home in the Universe -- one with God, one with people, one with that perfect and abiding faith that knows no fear.

I am an individualized expression of God;
I am ever one with this Perfect Life, Perfect Love and Perfect Abundance.
