Join us in celebrating life together in a caring community, honoring the diverse religious backgrounds of an interfaith constituency committed to personal spiritual growth, and supporting others in their own search.

We meet each Sunday in the Fellowship Building at 901 Beatrice, Salina, Kansas. This is one block west of Ohio on Martin. Open Forum -- an adult discussion group -- takes place from 9:15-10:00 a.m. Discussion topics are listed in the newsletter each month. Services begin at 10:30 a.m. Topics are diverse and always allow the opportunity for discussion and participation by all who attend. Children's religious education classes begin at the conclusion of "children's time" during the regular service. Dress is casual.

Our facilities are accessible, we have equipment to help the hearing-impaired, and we are glad to arrange rides to/from our activities. To reach us by telephone, call Kent at 785-827-8879. Please plan to stay for coffee and conversation after the service.

Life is Always Unfinished Business
by Richard S. Gilbert, from What We Share: Collected Meditations Volume Two, Patricia Frevert, editor. Published by Skinner House in 2002. This book is available from the CLF library.

In the midst of the whirling day,
In the hectic rush to be doing,
In the frantic pace of life,
Pause here for a moment.
Catch your breath;
Relax your body;
Loosen your grip on life.
Consider that our lives are always unfinished business;
Imagine that the picture of our being is never complete;
Allow yourself to be a work in progress.
Do not hurry to mold the masterpiece;
Do not rush to finish the picture;
Do not be impatient to complete the drawing.
From beckoning birth to dawning death we are in process,
And always there is more to be done.
Do not let the incompleteness weigh on your spirit;
Do not despair that imperfection marks your every day;
Do not fear that we are still in the making.
Let us instead be grateful that the world is still to be created;
Let us give thanks that we can be more than we are;
Let us celebrate the power of the incomplete;
For life is always unfinished business.
