While Christians are living into Advent and Jews into Channukah, we recognize that almost all global traditions in North America find meaning around this season of winter solstice. We will explore our lives in “the dark wood” and the coming light. Jerry will lead us in a centering exercise. A contribution of $10 for the lunch main dish and a facility love offering is appreciated. Please bring a side item, drink, or dessert to share.

Please note that with holiday scheduling conflicts, we are meeting the third Saturday of December and not the second per usual.

All men are invited to bring with them a light, lamp, lighter, or candle that is important to them to talk about in a circle.  Perhaps this is a wedding candle, Dad’s shop light, Grandfather’s Zippo lighter, Mom’s candle sticks….  Please RSVP to Paul Koch through pk24601@yahoo.com for more information and what you might bring for our potluck meal.

Please also be aware of these future events in the New Year.

Illuman Men in Ohio invite you to a retreat that Paul Koch is leading, March 17-19. Paul can provide transportation. (More information will be coming soon)

Men’s Rites of Passage, Osprey Wilds Environmental Center, Sandstone, Minnesota, June 21-26 (includes travel days; Paul, Jack and Dan are helping to lead and will take a van for all participating.  To register, go to www.illumanofmn.org
