Sunday morning was our annual Water Communion, in which members and friends brought or symbolically offered samples of water that represented special experiences they've had, on travels or at home, in unique events or in the everyday. The water we've collected and kept every year since our Fellowship has observed the ritual serves as a symbol of the abiding relationship that brings the individual streams of our lives together into the flow of our Fellowship's history, a history shaped by each person that has touched it.
We also continued to explore our Soul Matters theme for this month: Covenant. This week's question to contemplate: "What promises have you made to those who have gone before?"
