SUMMARY:Film Screening of 1946
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a film screening of 1946: The Mistranslation That Shifted Culture\, a feature documentary about the origins of the anti-gay movement among Christians due to a grave mistranslation of the Bible in 1946. \nWebsite description of the film: It chronicles the discovery of never-before-seen archives at Yale University which unveil astonishing new revelations\, and casts significant doubt on any biblical basis for LGBTQIA+ prejudice. Featuring commentary from prominent scholars as well as opposing pastors\, including the personal stories of the film’s creators\, 1946 is at once challenging\, enlightening\, and inspiring. While others have been successful in their attempt to treat the symptom of homophobia in the church\, 1946 is working to diagnose and treat the disease – Biblical Literalism. \nThe doors open at 4:30 p.m. \nFollowing this 90-minute film\, we’ll meet at Lynnwood Brewing Concern for a meal and group discussion. \nRegister

SUMMARY:Children‘s Theater Performance
DESCRIPTION:The Aggregate Theatre is bringing their show Giselle la Trent the Gazellephant to our church campus for a special free performance on Saturday\, April 6th. \nFrom their website about the show:\nWritten and performed live by local\, professional artists\, Giselle la Trent the Gazellephant is a humorous and heartfelt 40-minute children’s musical about a girl named Giselle on her first day at a new school. Half gazelle and half elephant\, Giselle is not your typical fourth-grader\, and she wants nothing more than to start off on the right foot at Thomas Girafferson Elementary (things haven’t gone so well at her other schools). Well\, there is one thing she wants more than anything else: to be a world famous rockstar! But when Margaret the Cat and Gore the Warthog don’t like Giselle’s rockstar dreams\, they bully Giselle into competing in a rockstar showdown. The surprising results send Giselle into a spiral of fears and problems she doesn’t know how to fix. Even her teacher\, Ms. Pronunciation\, can’t provide the comfort she needs. Not until a visit from a wise Dalmatian named Wags inspires Giselle to accept herself for all of her wonderful uniqueness does she learn that it’s easier to be nice to others when you’re also nice to yourself. \nGazellephant encourages children to analyze conflict and relationships they see in the musical and recognize them as situations they have experienced or have seen in real life. As the characters in Gazellephant learn and grow\, they exemplify actions and understanding that students can exhibit in developing greater emotional intelligence and showing empathy toward others. Also filled with funny references for teachers\, Gazellephant has points of access for everyone watching\, using the power of shared experience and the safety of story as a scaffolding on which counselors and other trusted adults can guide discussions about kindness and friendship. And the catchy songs that fill the show keep its life lessons in the students’ consciousness long after the performance ends. \nRegister

SUMMARY:Life Story Group Formation
DESCRIPTION:We form Life Story groups that will meet as many times as there are people in the group (usually 3-4) for about 2 hours at a time. \nFor Our Remote Community\nIf you are a remote member or would simply prefer to meet remotely for a Life Story group\, please use this form to note your preferences by 2/12 @ 6:00 p.m. Scott Shackleton will be in touch after the deadline with information about your group. \nRemote LSG Sign Up \n  \nLife Story Group Expectations/Recommendations\nConfidentiality. We agree not to share even bits and pieces of others’ stories with people who are not in the group. Even without names. Even without identifying details. Even with our intimate partners. That’s how hurtful gossip can happen. \nNon-judgement. This is trickier because we’re talking about what happens in your heart. One way to avoid the appearance of judgment is to avoid asking questions or making comments. Just listen through to the end then thank the speaker for their story. But you’re not on your own with any feelings and thoughts that might come up after listening! The skill of being a member of a community requires practice and support. Always know you can reach out to our minister or a member of the pastoral team if you need help. \n5-minute Meditation. Starting every LSG with a five minute meditation reminds us that though this is a ‘communal’ activity\, it’s not just a social activity: the spiritual journey benefits from spiritual friends\, and that’s what we are here together to make. \nWorking the Circle. Serving/Learning/Contemplative/Communal. These concepts and terminology that may come up in your group:Have you “done a worksheet” with the Self-Awareness group?Do you know your Enneagram type?Have you ever meditated before?Did you participate in the Newcomers program?
