Dear Friends:<\/p>\n

It’s a very full weekend at Berkeley Friends Church this time around–and much of August is going to be busy!<\/p>\n

1) This Saturday, 8\/2,<\/b> we host the first of a two-part Alternatives to Violence Project (AVP) workshop.<\/b> AVP offers experiential, hands-on workshops that empower people to lead nonviolent lives through affirmation, respect for all, community building, cooperation, creative conflict resolution and trust. The workshop  is a full day; registration & snacks are at 8:30 AM, and the program begins at 9.<\/b> The second workshop will be Saturday, 8\/16. A sliding-scale donation is requested. For more information, see the attached flyer, and if you want to register, contact Dorothy Kakimoto ASAP. <\/b>
<\/b> <\/b>
<\/b>
<\/b>2) Then, on Sunday, 8\/3,<\/b> <\/font>don’t forget that w<\/font>e are going to <\/span><\/font>bring all of the church’s contributions for <\/b><\/font>the Berkeley Neighborhood Food Project<\/a><\/b> together<\/b><\/font> so we can give thanks and pray for all of the hungry folks in our community. D<\/b>on’t fo<\/b>rget <\/b>to bring that<\/font><\/font><\/b> green bag <\/b>with you<\/font><\/font><\/b> <\/b>when you leave the house<\/font><\/font><\/font><\/font> on Sunday, <\/b> and bring it with you into worship!<\/b><\/p>\n

That morning, the Trustees Committee<\/b> will begin the day, meeting at 9 AM.<\/b> Then, at 10 AM,<\/b> we’ll have Sunday School classes<\/b> for children and adults. In meeting for worship<\/b> at 11 AM,<\/b> we will gather in shared prayer and quiet, with Kirsten Bohl<\/b> sharing a message entitled “Sing A New Song,”<\/b><\/i> <\/b><\/i>drawing on Psalm 98<\/b><\/a>, the story of Zacchaeus in  Luke 19<\/b><\/a>, and other texts. Kirsten, Nikki and the younger people will also help us sing a new song together!<\/p>\n

Fellowship time follows worship, and then the Missionary, Outreach and Christian Education <\/b>Committee<\/b> will meet at 1 PM.<\/b><\/p>\n

Please join us! <\/p>\n
