True Prosperity – What Is It?
10:50 AM — Prelude Music with the “Friends” Band
11:00 AM — Celebration Service
Talk Title: “What is Prosperity?”
Speaker: Rev. Bridget McCann
What do you think of when you hear the word prosperity? There’s a good chance you’re thinking of financial freedom. While prosperity can mean that, the fuller meaning of prosperity is so much more than that. Let’s explore, together, what prosperity means in the larger scope of our lives.

On CD Baby: “…her voice is ‘rich and sensuous with amazing clarity and presence… it melts the heart.’” You’ll experience her authenticity and your own delight in equal measure as you enjoy this true artist expressing her gifts!

ANNOUNCEMENTS & EVENTS
Spiritual Living Amidst Heated Politics
Feeling anxious about the upcoming election? Afraid for our country? Wondering how you’re going to interact with family on the “other side of the political divide” during the holidays? Want to stay spiritually-grounded through it all? Then this workshop is for you!
We’ll explore and share our feelings and concerns around politics and the election and learn ways to navigate the heated political climate all around us.
Rev. Bridget McCann will lead this 3-part workshop, the final session being after the election to deal with shifts in feelings post-election. We CAN stay spiritually-grounded amidst heated politics, and be a beneficial presence for our country, our families, and ourselves.
NOTE: This is NOT a forum to discuss actual politics, candidates, issues, or political parties. We are dealing with our fears, and learning to stay spiritually-grounded. Facilitators will end any conversation that veers into actual politics.

Dr. Keltner at 6:00 PM Pacific.
The Watch Party introduces you to Dr. Keltner’s book and serves as a kick-off for 3 additional gatherings (coming in Nov. and Dec.) which are loosely based on and inspired by his work. In small groups we’ll look at Awe in our own lives, explore Awe as a spiritual practice, discuss how to cultivate it and discover it’s many benefits. The book is not required for participation, we’re just whetting your apatite for the AWEsomeness to come.
The opportunity to sign up for the small groups is coming soon. There will be both in-person and online options; just keep an eye out here (below) for a link and the specifics.
In the meantime, plan on being at PCSL for the potluck and watch party with Dr. Dacher Keltner!
