SUMMARY:Ali Davidson talks about her book – It’s Between You and Me: For Adult Children and their Senior Parents
DESCRIPTION:No one wants to get old…but we’ve all got to do it. What if there was a way to use the aging process as a catalyst for bringing your family closer together\, to heal old wounds\, and discover new things about each other? What if there were a way to infuse the aging process with cooperation\, empowerment\, and appreciation. \nWorking with seniors and their families for ten years led the author to write this book to help people avoid the struggles she witnessed when we age without a plan. If you have ever thought about your own aging and asked yourself “what will I do when?” Then It’s Between You and Me will help answer those questions. \nThis book will take both the senior and the adult child on a rich and meaningful journey to the conversation that everyone wants to have but few are able to request. This will lead to harmony\, greater respect\, and clear expectations of each other’s desire. \nThis book is a manual taking you through a series of questions that enable you to create a plan for the aging years so that no crisis catches you off guard. It ensures that you remain independent throughout your life because you are in charge and making decisions that others can implement with peace of mind. Filled with information\, stories\, and guidance for creating your plan\, this book is a must for anyone over 50

SUMMARY:FREE Movie & Discussion: “REFUGE”
DESCRIPTION:In partnership with Urban Rural Action and the Better Together Film Festival\, we will be presenting the powerful film\, “Refuge” on April 16th at 7pm \nBetter Together Film Festival is a national initiative bringing together groups of people in local spaces to build community and bridge divides through the power of film.\nREFUGE is an award-winning feature-length documentary that follows a leader in a white nationalist hate group who finds healing from the people he once hated – a Muslim heart doctor and his town of refugees. Chris is a husband and father\, a veteran\, and until recently\, a leader in the KKK. He started hating Muslims when the planes hit the Twin Towers on 9/11\, but is forced to confront his hate when he receives a text from Muslim refugee\, Heval. \nREFUGE is set in the most diverse square mile in America – Clarkston\, Georgia – and follows a Syrian Kurd\, a former Klansman\, and a town of refugees who seek belonging in an increasingly polarized and isolated America. Ultimately\, REFUGE uncovers what is possible when we leave the security of our tribes and what is at stake for our country if we don’t. \nTickets are free but registration is necessary using this link: \nhttps://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__docs.google.com_forms_d_e_1FAIpQLSfMKqFLn0d9afck6AYeUfPrxrgMmg8yZP78A3hrSgJRAVwN3w_viewform&d=DwIFAg&c=euGZstcaTDllvimEN8b7jXrwqOf-v5A_CdpgnVfiiMM&r=9D7rNv05pTGZEGoiItOrzbgsLVgsdPV-NImhc2ZkCG0&m=GittD8z7QO7LwGmG_Q776kyaeOdgZqRWIa0X0PXr76v4568-PxE5FVs43ilBS0dz&s=cwr2QlYUXQlAJAnbXrp-PO-hCehqna0THrGzDg63jOg&e= \nSeating is limited to 40 people. \nWednesday\, April 16th ~ 7 to 9:30 pm\nRVML ~ 1757 Ashland Street\, Ashland\nJoin facilitator Marla Estes and learn how to “depolarize within.”

SUMMARY:Class: Creating Genetic Networks from DNA Matches
DESCRIPTION:You’ve had your DNA tested and received a list of matches\, now what? \nIn order to apply your DNA results to genealogy\, you must first understand how a match is related to you. The first step in doing this is to organize your matches into genetic networks\, which will show you which branch of your family tree they belong to. Jeanne Hoadley will demonstrate step by step how to use the Leeds method and the ancestry dot system to group your matches into genetic networks. An afternoon help session will follow from 1:00 – 3:00 so that you can practice your new skills with mentors standing by to help you if you get stuck. \nCost: $10 members\, $20 non-members. \nRegistration closes at noon on April 16. This class will be recorded and made available to those who registered for 30 days\nRegister at RVGSLibrary.org>Classes and Events>Registration

SUMMARY:Thursday Evening Calm Abiding Meditaion
DESCRIPTION:This meditation is common to many traditions of Buddhism. In this practice\, we rest our attention on a simple meditative support\, such as the breath. Instead of following thoughts and emotions as we usually do\, we release them and maintain our connection to the support. \n“From this practice\, we can experience a stable and calm mind. We learn to maintain and return to a sense of stillness\, no matter what our outer circumstances. The mind is relaxed\, alert and aware. The results of this practice are serenity\, freedom in the face of circumstances\, and ultimately Buddhahood.” \nFrom Meditation for Beginners\, by Bokar Rinpoche. \nTo attend Calm Abiding Meditation via Zoom\, email the office at OFFICE@KSCASHLAND.ORG to join the mailing list. \n

SUMMARY:Maundy Thursday Service at Trinity
DESCRIPTION:This service begins the Great Three Days\, the Church’s Passover feast of liberation from the powers of sin and death. \nTonight we commemorate Jesus’ last supper with his disciples and his new commandment to love as he loves. We celebrate the signs he gave them to confirm this teaching: washing one another’s feet as he washed theirs; blessing and sharing the bread and wine that he told them would be his body and blood. Participation in the foot-washing is optional. If you wish to receive washing of feet\, please remember to wear shoes and socks that are easy to remove. Those who participate will have the opportunity to wash another’s feet after their own have been\, but if you are unable to kneel to perform this service\, or prefer not to\, ministers will be standing by to do it for you. This was also the night in which one of Jesus’ disciples betrayed him\, and so we conclude this service with the solemn stripping of the altar\, and by reserving bread and wine for our communion on Good Friday. We will depart the church in darkness and silence. Some will return throughout the night to keep quiet vigil with the reserved sacrament\, as Jesus waited and watched in the Garden of Gethsemane. You can sign up for an hour or more of the vigil on the sheet in the narthex. 44 N 2nd St\, Ashland\, OR\, 97520 \nThe services of the Holy Week form a single great liturgy. Their meaning and power is cumulative\, bringing participants deep into contemplation of the mystery of Christ’s passion and resurrection. That said\, even if it only possible to attend one of these services\, each highlights a particular aspect of the great Christian drama of redemption. \nFor more information\, see https://www.trinitychurchashland.org or https://www.facebook.com/TrinityAshland.
