Join us for our Last Tuesday Dinner Group at a different area restaurant each month on the last Tuesday evening. These meals are casual, come-as-you-please gatherings.

Come, relax, eat, and join in the conversations.

Please join us to help plan an earth-based spirituality community ritual and celebration to acknowledge the Autumn Equinox, Mabon. If we can get enough interested helpers, the public ritual for celebrating the bountiful harvest that summer brought to us, will take place on Friday, September 21st, from 7:00 - 9:00 p.m. While Tami Jackson and Susie Maharry are both happy to lead the main ceremony, we need your participation as well! For this particular ritual to go forth, we will need volunteers who can attend both the planning meeting and call the quarters, guard the circle, and much more during the ritual. We all get to help create the event! The planning meeting will happen right after the service at 12:00 noon on Sunday, August 5th, and will end by 1:15 p.m. Grab your coffee and join us in the Comfort Room (at the side of the Sanctuary). Please contact Susie Maharry at dir.are@tahomauu.com with questions and to express your interest.
