SUMMARY:Loving Kindness Meditation
DESCRIPTION:PLEASE NOTE:  This weekly meeting is on summer break.  It will resume in September.\nThe teachings of Loving Kindness\, or Metta\, are about finding a path with heart. Jack Kornfield says\, “It’s about undertaking a path that transforms and touches us in the center of our being. To do so is to find a way of practice that allows us to live in the world wholly and fully from our heart.” \nWith this Spiritual Practice\, one can cultivate feelings of happiness\, dispel loneliness\,  let go of fear and anxiety. If you are feeling stuck\, this practice can help you enjoy a more compassionate life for yourself and others. \nJoin us on Zoom on Monday evenings to extend Loving-Kindness to yourself\, to those around you and to the world. \nNo previous meditation practice is necessary\, and new participants are always welcome.  Join on an ongoing basis\, or drop in as you’re able. \nMay we be at peace and keep our hearts open. \nContact Katie R. for more information. \nClick here to join.

SUMMARY:🥣 Souper Sunday
DESCRIPTION:On the second Sunday of most months\, we offer two different soups as part of our Social Hour\, including at least one gluten-free option and at least one vegetarian option. To learn what type of soups will be offered at the next Souper Sunday\, subscribe to our Front Steps e-newsletter. \nIf you are able\, the suggested cost for the soup is $5 to help us cover the cost of ingredients. \nPlease supplement the offering by bringing the following to share: \n\nBreads\nTreats\nSnacks/sides\nKid-friendly prepackaged drinks\n\nSpoons and cups for soup will be provided. Please consider bringing your own containers and utensils to be more environmentally friendly. \nIt takes a lot of folks to put on Souper Sunday every month: organizers\, cooks\, servers\, shoppers and clean up team to name a few. We are appreciative of all who volunteer. If you are interested in helping out\, please contact Barbara M.

SUMMARY:🥣 Souper Sunday
DESCRIPTION:On the second Sunday of most months\, we offer two different soups as part of our Social Hour\, including at least one gluten-free option and at least one vegetarian option. To learn what type of soups will be offered at the next Souper Sunday\, subscribe to our Front Steps e-newsletter. \nIf you are able\, the suggested cost for the soup is $5 to help us cover the cost of ingredients. \nPlease supplement the offering by bringing the following to share: \n\nBreads\nTreats\nSnacks/sides\nKid-friendly prepackaged drinks\n\nSpoons and cups for soup will be provided. Please consider bringing your own containers and utensils to be more environmentally friendly. \nIt takes a lot of folks to put on Souper Sunday every month: organizers\, cooks\, servers\, shoppers and clean up team to name a few. We are appreciative of all who volunteer. If you are interested in helping out\, please contact Barbara M.
