SUMMARY:Sunday Soul Circle: Who Told You THAT?🫢👀
DESCRIPTION:Voices\, Visions\, and Veto Power\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSifting Through Pressure\, Power\, and Purpose \n“One does not live by bread alone.”  —Luke 4:4 \nEvery day\, we are surrounded by voices that want a say in who we are and how we live. Some are loud with urgency. Some speak through fear\, duty\, expectation\, or the need to prove ourselves. Some promise safety. Some promise power. Some sound so familiar we barely notice how deeply they shape our discernment. \nIn this Soul Circle\, we will explore the voices that influence our choices\, our identity\, and our sense of calling. We will reflect on the pressures to produce\, perform\, protect\, and control. And\, we will ask which voices truly align with our deepest values\, vision\, and purpose. \nThrough music\, guided meditation\, and poetry\, we will make room to listen for the sacred beneath the noise. Together\, we’ll practice noticing which voices deserve authority\, which ones need boundaries\, and what it feels like in the body to come back into alignment with what is true. \nwith love\, Rev. Wendy\n\n\n\nSanctuary UCC Sunday Spiritual Circle – for prayer\, care\, reflection\, and connection. \n~~~~ \nWendy Miller Olapade – 617.592.5853 is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting. \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/82882360638?pwd=C3PlBa13j4w2dvjKgANZM9eqpUbMaa.1 \nMeeting ID: 828 8236 0638\nPasscode: 651686 \nDial by your location\n• +1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n• +1 305 224 1968 US \nMeeting ID: 828 8236 0638\nPasscode: 651686 \nFind your local number: https://us02web.zoom.us/u/kc1XnzubHD \n──────────

SUMMARY:Sunday Soul Circle: For the Hard\, Holy Road🚶‍♀️✨
DESCRIPTION:Kneeling Where Love Leads\n“When the days drew near for him to be taken up\, he set his face to go to Jerusalem. ”  —Luke 9:51 \nThere are seasons when faith feels like Bethlehem: tender\, lit from within\, full of wonder and nearness. And then there are seasons when faith asks more of us. The angels thin out. The road darkens. The conversation turns from birth to death\, from comfort to courage\, from beauty to costly love. Lent is that road. \nThis Soul Circle draws on the poetry of Ann Weems from Kneeling in Jerusalem\, and makes room for the reluctance\, ache\, tenderness\, and truth that often rise as we walk deeper into this season. \nTogether\, we will listen for what the road is asking of us now: where we are resisting\, where we are weary\, where we are being invited to turn back for the lost\, and where love is still leading us\, even when the light is poor.  \nCome as you are. Come thoughtful\, tired\, uncertain\, open – for there is room on the road for the whole of you. \nAnd\, God has gone on toward Jerusalem so we do not walk alone. \nwith love\, Rev. Wendy \nSanctuary UCC Sunday Spiritual Circle – for prayer\, care\, reflection\, and connection. \n~~~~ \nWendy Miller Olapade – 617.592.5853 is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting. \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/82882360638?pwd=C3PlBa13j4w2dvjKgANZM9eqpUbMaa.1 \nMeeting ID: 828 8236 0638\nPasscode: 651686 \nDial by your location\n• +1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n• +1 305 224 1968 US \nMeeting ID: 828 8236 0638\nPasscode: 651686 \nFind your local number: https://us02web.zoom.us/u/kc1XnzubHD \n──────────

SUMMARY:Sunday Soul Circle: Palms\, Passion\, Presence
DESCRIPTION:“Let the same mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus.”\nPhilippians 2:5 \nPalm Sunday arrives with branches in our hands and hosannas on our lips. But beneath the song is a harder invitation: to follow Jesus beyond the parade and into the aching heart of Holy Week. This is the week where praise turns\, truth sharpens\, tables tremble\, love pours itself out\, and the shadows grow long. \nThis Sunday in Soul Circle\, we will let poetry guide us into the depth and tension of the week ahead. Through prayer\, quiet reflection\, and honest sharing\, we will make space for the movement from celebration to courage\, from admiration to discipleship\, from waving palms to walking the road. \nDon’t Skip the Shadows on the Way to Resurrection \nLet this be the place where we enter them with intention. Come bring your hosannas\, your questions\, your weariness\, your love. Come let Holy Week ask something real of you. \nwith love\, Rev.

SUMMARY:Sunday Soul Circle: Love Calls Your Name
DESCRIPTION:“Early on the first day of the week\, while it was still dark\, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb…” -John 20:1 \nEaster does not begin in certainty. It begins in the half-light. In damp grass. In grief that has not yet loosened its grip. It begins with women carrying spices and sorrow\, walking toward a tomb and wondering how in the world they will move the stone. \nAnd maybe that is why this story still meets us so well. We know about stones. We know what feels too heavy\, too sealed up\, too far gone. We know what it is to stand before something that looks unmovable – final. But Easter has always been a story about holy surprise: the stone moved\, the name spoken\, the garden suddenly alive with more than anyone expected. \nThis Easter Sunday in Soul Circle\, we will listen for the places where life is still rising among us. Together we will reflect on what feels blocked\, what it means to be called by name\, and what new life may be quietly greening in the garden of our lives. \nCome for a gentle\, honest\, hope-streaked Easter morning in circle. \nwith love\, Rev. Wendy \nSanctuary UCC Sunday Spiritual Circle – for prayer\, care\, reflection\, and connection. \n~~~~ \nWendy Miller Olapade – 617.592.5853 is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting. \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/82882360638?pwd=C3PlBa13j4w2dvjKgANZM9eqpUbMaa.1 \nMeeting ID: 828 8236 0638\nPasscode: 651686 \nDial by your location\n• +1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n• +1 305 224 1968 US \nMeeting ID: 828 8236 0638\nPasscode: 651686 \nFind your local number: https://us02web.zoom.us/u/kc1XnzubHD \n──────────

SUMMARY:Sunday Soul Circle: Come to the Garden🌱Again
DESCRIPTION:“Supposing him to be the gardener…” -John 20:15 \nSometimes resurrection does not arrive like a trumpet blast. Sometimes it comes like a green shoot. Sometimes it comes through tears\, through naming\, through one small sign that the worst thing is not the last thing. This Eastertide Sunday\, our Soul Circle returns to the garden. \nDrawing on the Easter story in John\, we will reflect on the garden as a place of tenderness\, recognition\, growth\, and surprise. We will wonder together what is beginning to green again\, what needs tending instead of forcing\, and where new life may already be stirring beneath the surface. Join us for a quiet\, hopeful circle of prayer and reflection as we listen for resurrection in real life. \nCome ready to notice\, to breathe\, to share\, and to honor the life that is rising\, however small or fragile it may seem. \nwith love\, Rev.

SUMMARY:Sunday Soul Circle: The Road is Holy
DESCRIPTION:On the road to Emmaus\, two grieving disciples walk away from everything they thought would be. They are disappointed\, disoriented\, and trying to make sense of a story that has fallen apart in their hands. And yet\, without knowing it\, they are not walking alone. \nThis Eastertide Soul Circle will make space for the roads we walk when hope feels bruised\, when clarity is slow\, and when holy presence is easier to miss than to name. Through story\, reflection\, prayer\, and gentle conversation\, we will linger with this tender resurrection text and notice how Christ still comes near\, listens deeply\, and meets us in the ordinary holiness of companionship\, bread\, and shared life. \nCome if you are carrying questions. Come if your faith feels more like a flicker than a blaze. Come if you need a place to breathe\, wonder\, and listen for the quiet ways resurrection still appears beside us on the road. \nSanctuary UCC Sunday Spiritual Circle – for prayer\, care\, reflection\, and connection. \n~~~~ \nWendy Miller Olapade – 617.592.5853 is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting. \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/82882360638?pwd=C3PlBa13j4w2dvjKgANZM9eqpUbMaa.1 \nMeeting ID: 828 8236 0638\nPasscode: 651686 \nDial by your location\n• +1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n• +1 305 224 1968 US \nMeeting ID: 828 8236 0638\nPasscode: 651686 \nFind your local number: https://us02web.zoom.us/u/kc1XnzubHD \n──────────

SUMMARY:Sunday Soul Circle: Led By Love
DESCRIPTION:“You restore my soul.” – Psalm 23:3 \nPsalm 23 is one of those sacred texts that lives in the body as much as in the mind. It has traveled with people through grief and fear\, through hospital rooms and funeral homes\, through quiet mornings\, sleepless nights\, and seasons when trust came hard. Its words are familiar\, but familiarity does not mean they are finished with us. \nThis Sunday at Soul Circle\, we will linger with the psalm slowly\, prayerfully\, and in more than one voice. Through several poetic interpretations\, shared silence\, music\, and reflection\, we will listen again for the promise at its center: that Love accompanies us\, restores us\, and leads us toward life. \nCome if you are weary. Come if you are longing for beauty. Come if you need still waters\, a steadier heart\, or simply a place to breathe. Together\, we will make room for this ancient prayer to meet us again. \nSanctuary UCC Sunday Spiritual Circle – for prayer\, care\, reflection\, and connection. \n~~~~ \nWendy Miller Olapade – 617.592.5853 is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting. \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/82882360638?pwd=C3PlBa13j4w2dvjKgANZM9eqpUbMaa.1 \nMeeting ID: 828 8236 0638\nPasscode: 651686 \nDial by your location\n• +1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n• +1 305 224 1968 US \nMeeting ID: 828 8236 0638\nPasscode: 651686 \nFind your local number: https://us02web.zoom.us/u/kc1XnzubHD \n──────────
