This Sunday, Jess directed her homily toward blessing and saying goodbye to our beloved Rachael Barham as she and her family prepare for a move and a new season ahead. Themes of beauty, imperfection, interconnectedness, and the divine in all things were woven through the service, as well as much love and gratitude for the many ways Rachael has blessed and shaped our lives and community.
In her last talk with us as part of our Leadership Collective, Rachael shared on how we integrate being present while seeing our moments as part of a pilgrimage with a path and destination in mind.
On our 33rd anniversary, several of us (including guest, Bradley Jersak) shared thoughts on what they’ve appreciated about being a part of SCC. We closed with Ray’s singing of “Kingfishers” (aka “Icarus” or “The Hot Song”). Much love and gratitude was present.
