5 ELEPHANTS IN WINTER on December 1-2 The current chill in the air (at last!) reminds us all that the semi-annual Stampede of the Elephants is about to come to Old Lyme! The hugely popular pre-christmas Elephants-in-Winter sale takes place in the Fellowship Hall of the First Congregational Church of Old Lyme, 2 Ferry Street, on Saturday, December 1st, from 9 am to 2 pm; and again on Sunday, December 2nd from 9 am to 4 pm. There will be no half-price sale this year (except on elephants). The Elephants In Winter Sale features assorted Christmas decorations and gifts, handmade craft items, and special treasures from many of FCCOL s mission partnerships: from the Cheyenne River Reservation in South Dakota, from Haiti, and from Palestine. Adult Forums Today's Adult Forum speaker is Joseph & Martine Kazadi, Old Lyme Refugee Family from Congo. December 2: Dr. Kate Ott, Christian Ethics in the Digital Age. Book Group The Sacred Art of Lovingkindness Preparing to Practice by Rabbi Rami Shapiro. This inspiring book explores Judaism s 13 attributes of Lovingkindness as a framework for cultivating a more complete spiritual life. Practices are drawn from a variety of faith traditions to help us recognize the divinity within ourselves and others. We meet on Wednesday, November 28th at 10:00 am in the library. All welcome! Led by Martha Beaudoin and Laura. Contemplative Prayer Circle It doesn t have to be the blue iris, it could be weeds in a vacant lot, or a few small stones; just pay attention, then patch a few words together and don t try to make them elaborate, this isn t a contest but the doorway into thanks, and a silence in which another voice may speak. --Mary Oliver. Join us on Wednesday night, November 28th from 6:30-7:00 pm in the Hoag Parlor for a time of deep listening for the Spirit moving within and among us. We ll explore different prayer practices over the weeks including lectio divina, centering prayer, music and meditation. Mothers of a New Creation Journey to Israel/Palestine March 12-23, 2019 This journey will have a special focus on the role of women, past and present, in their struggle to give birth to a New Creation. The Land of Canaan, sometimes called the "Holy Land" or the "Land of Promise", is a place replete with the sacred stories of women who by their love, courage, resilience and determination endeavor to make their communities a place where all God's children could learn to live together in peace.

8 Lina Tuck - Testimonial It is difficult to choose one thing that makes me love this church so much. As a community member, my family has attended FCCOL since 2002 and became members in Over these years, I have served on the Board of Arts and Music, Search Committee for the Senior Minister Position when David Good retired, Board of Deacons and more recently Chair of the Immigrant Assistance Committee. The key to all of these opportunities that I ve had are the interactions with fellow church members, getting to know new friends, sharing in common interests and finding out about our unique differences. The friendships that I have made are what keep me coming back to FCCOL. The soulful ministry that Steve, Carleen and Laura provide is the crowning centerpiece. Each has been a friend, a comforter and a guide. I look forward to the thoughtful words that each provide during Sunday services and know that they are more than those words. They are real, they are funny, but most of all they are kind. I am honored to part of this community of hope, grace and love.
