May is sneaking up fast, let's get together!

If you are interested in coming out to see what we are like, there are two opportunities in the near future.

May 4th - 5 PM - 9 PM - Beltane

This will be in place of our normal Saturday Social so that we can celebrate the holiday together and with the greater community.  I'm not sure what all is planned, but it should be a fun and relaxing time.

May 12th - 5 PM - 7 PM - Fellowship and Potluck

Topic is "It takes a Village". We have a service with discussion followed by at least an hour of eating and socializing.  We have Fellowship once a month at this time, always a similar format followed by potluck.

Both of these events will be at The Plantory. Beltane will be an outside event.

You can find out more about the Plantory on their website, which I think also includes map and directions.  http://plantory.org/

Re: First Fellowship at The Plantory and announcements

Tentatively... will pass the word when things are set in stone, so to speak.  But this is what our hope is.

And our Beltane will be Saturday, May 4th, 2013, at the pavilion area OUTSIDE the Plantory from 5 PM to 9 PM.

Re: First Fellowship at The Plantory and announcements

Late night typo... January 14 should read January 19.  Sorry about any confusion.  19th is Third Sunday. :-)

And our Beltane will be Saturday, May 4th, 2013, at the pavilion area OUTSIDE the Plantory from 5 PM to 9 PM.

So, our planned fellowship dates and topics are as follows:

May 12th - It Takes A Village - presented by Sharon and Village

June 16th - Gender Roles in Community and Family - multiple presenters

July 21st - Ancient History of Human Communities - presented by Keven

August 18th - Community Harvest - presented by Rev. SonnyD

September 15th - Alternatives to Current Communities - presented by Sandra

October 20th - Humanism in Community - presented by Barbara

November 17th - Baskets for Families - presented by Sharon

December 15th - Getting To Know You - open fellowship and community time

January 14th, 2014 - Community Survival - presented by Rev. SonnyD

We are trying to plan something special for Beltane.  So, Save The Date May 4th (Saturday from 6 - 10 PM) and we will keep you posted!

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact us through our website, GardenSourceSC.org.

First Fellowship at The Plantory and announcements

I can't speak for anyone else, but I had a wonderful time.  The site is beautiful and a very good fit for us at this point in our growth. We have some new members, partially thanks to our new location. I'm already excited for next month!

Just a bit of announcements and news:

Saturday Social this coming, the 20th, we will be recognizing Earth Day.  Not sure what the activities will be, maybe seed bombs again? But as always, a family-dinner-style potluck and lots of good company.  This is held at a member's home, so please contact us via our website for info and directions. 

Our next fellowship will be on May 12th (Mother's Day), then starting in June (on the 16th for Father's Day) we plan to have fellowship on the third Sunday of each month at 5 PM at The Plantory.  We will not have Saturday Social the night before a fellowship.  Two potlucks in a row was a bit much for everyone.

So, our planned fellowship dates and topics are as follows:

May 12th - It Takes A Village - presented by Sharon and Village

June 16th - Gender Roles in Community and Family - multiple presenters

July 21st - Ancient History of Human Communities - presented by Keven

August 18th - Community Harvest - presented by Rev. SonnyD

September 15th - Alternatives to Current Communities - presented by Sandra

October 20th - Humanism in Community - presented by Barbara

November 17th - Baskets for Families - presented by Sharon

December 15th - Getting To Know You - open fellowship and community time

January 14th, 2014 - Community Survival - presented by Rev. SonnyD

We are trying to plan something special for Beltane.  So, Save The Date May 4th (Saturday from 6 - 10 PM) and we will keep you posted!

Some of our members and friends will be going to see the Dalai Lama in Louisville on May 19th.  Hopefully, they will bring back pictures and stories to share with us.

Also, we plan to have a booth at Gay Pride this year, downtown Lexington in front of the courthouses, on Saturday, June 29th.  Not sure of the times or any specific details just yet.

Ok, that is quite a bit to absorb for now!  Just wanted to get it all out there while it was fresh in my memory.

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact us through our website, GardenSourceSC.org.

Bright Blessings and many hugs to you all!

There is still time to come out to see our new location

Fellowship today at 5 PM at our new location:

Garden Source Spiritual Center
@ The Plantory,
560 E. Third St., Suite 105
Lexington KY 40508-1738

Today's topic is the "Us and Them" theory.

We look forward to seeing your smiling faces on this gorgeous Spring day!
