A letter from Rev. Dr. Sherry, March 18, 2020

​

Dear Beloved CLF Family,
 
Out of an abundance of caution, love and concern for our community, and due to guidelines issued by the CDC and other Public Health officials regarding social distancing, and gatherings of more than 10 people, we are suspending our live, in-person Sunday services, effective immediately.
 
SUNDAY SERVICE:
 
Beginning this Sunday, March 22, 2020, we will be holding online services ONLY. You can join us for Sunday Service on Facebook and on our Website*.
 
We will be following our regular Sunday morning schedule:
      9:30* – Meditation Service
     10:00* – Sunday Service

* There will be a delay for our website viewers. A recording of the Live Service will be posted as soon as possible after the completion of the Service on our website and YouTube channel. 
 
Remember our theme for 2020: “Life Is For Living… Just Say Yes!” Saying “Yes!” to our new online Sunday service will provide us the wonderful opportunity to continue our usual loving, joy-filled service in a different way—complete with wonderful music and an inspiring message!
 
As we go through this time of change, and apparent separation, it is imperative that we continue to deepen in our spiritual practice of prayer and meditation, and consciously and consistently utilize the principles and practices of the Science of Mind--always recognizing that there is but One Life, One Power, One Presence, from which we can never be separate. That One lives and moves and has Its Being in each of us, and It is in the midst of everything situation, circumstance, and event.
 
As we dare to stand in--and continue to return (over and over) to—the Truth that we know, we can move, without fear and anxiety, through this time with Peace and Peace of Mind and Spirit.
 
Let us all look upon this time as sacred--a time for our inward journey of reflection and contemplation, and a willingness to go with the flow. Let us also remember each other, as we reach out to each other with our loving hearts,
 
Much Love to you All,
 
Rev. Dr. Sherry

CONNECT, CONNECT, CONNECT
 
Remember that we are a community of Care, Connection, and Creation! This time of not seeing each other on Sundays, or at least regularly, however, can feel very isolating and lonely for some. So, in addition to checking in with our thoughts and prayers, don’t forget to check in on each other, via telephone, text messages, emails, snail mail, cards, etc., to say, “Hello,”  “I’m thinking of you,”  “I love you…” This could make all the difference in the world to all of us, and especially to someone who is alone.
 
 PRACTITIONER SUPPORT
 
If you have a Prayer Request, or would like one of our Practitioners to pray with you, there will be On-Call Practitioners who will be available during this time. These Practitioners will rotate on a regular basis, so please check our weekly newsletter or the COVID-19 Page on our Website to get the most up-to-date information regarding On-Call Practitioners.  
  
CONGREGANT CARE SUPPORT
 
If you have need of support or would like to talk with someone in our Congregant Care Ministry, please contact Josette Bergeron or Rev. Cindy Farrimond.
