Yesterday was a wonderful day at All Souls. In the words of Mr Monk, ‘Here’s what happened…..’ Sandy was the leader and did her usual lovely job of putting together readings and music to create a service around Walt Kania’s message… Then – the chorus sang and we [...]

In our town, Mansfield, OH., there are kids going to school on Tuesday without pencil, paper, notebook or any of the other supplies you’d expect kids to have when they start a new school year. One school, Hedges School, where some of our members tutor all year, has been supported for years by churches [...]
Last Sunday, the 9th, I introduced the speaker at All Souls. The
message “Reflections on the Experience of a Newcomer”, was by Rev. Gail
Geisenhainer. Her talk was just tremendous, and an amazing example of

Another month!
Sunday the 31st of May, we had a good service, even though John was

at his 'Big Church' in Cleveland gaining experience in that type of
church – which is required for his being accepted in the Ministerial
Fellowshipping Program at the UUA. [...]
When my Father died on December 8, 1972, I learned that we're each here
for a moment and we don't know – can't predict how long that moment will
be. We're each so very dear and unique and wonderful in our own special
ways.
I also learned that night that I can't fix everything, that no matter
how hard I [...]
Today was a most interesting service at All Souls followed by most enjoyable evening at Brian and Jackie Moore's 3rd Annual Memorial Day Cookout…
But first – Today, Che Sahara was initiated into the rolls of those who lead our services. As you remember she delivered a memorable talk earlier this year. [...]
