NEW: Community Circle at the Sumac Centre
It's so simple. We meet once a month, share some food, talk to each other. Then we form a circle and introduce ourselves with an emphasis on being positive together. People are invited to think about what they need and what they might have to offer. All kinds of things have been asked for: baby clothes, help with finding a tradesperson, advice on sorting out benefits, someone to talk to, help cleaning out a shed etc. The need is spoken with no expectation of it being fulfilled.People in the circle respond if they feel it. Then people go around again and make offers, something they would like to share with no expectation of it being accepted. Again, a wide range of things have been offered: guitar lessons, help with getting funding, carwashing etc, etc. All the requests and connections are beautifully drawn up onto a big sheet of paper. Afterwards, people check in with those who
responded to the gifts/needs/wishes to make arrangements! (Bring your diaries!)
Wednesday July 13th and Tuesday August 16th, beginning at 7pm with a buffet from Veggies.
