Welcome to Convocation week! The 2025 SRF World Convocation starts today with an evening class at 7 at the Westin Bonaventure Hotel in Los Angeles. Classes also will be livestreamed. Encinitas Temple will be showing these events, for those who would like to watch with a group.

Our Sunday evening meditation is canceled, as is the Friday evening meditation. However, the Thursday 6-hour meditation from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. will be as usual.

Information about the Encinitas Hermitage and Meditation Gardens schedule following Convocation is posted on our bulletin board.

We are pleased to announce that our Center will have a Tuesday-evening meditation from 7 to 9 beginning July 1.

Our annual Fourth of July picnic lunch will be Sunday, July 6, following the service. Veggie burgers and veggie hot dogs will be provided.  The rest of the meal is potluck, so if you are able to bring a side dish, salad, or dessert, or volunteer to help with this event, please sign up.  Look for a sign-up table after the service today.

For anyone who would like to sing some traditional patriotic songs with the choir at our Fourth of July picnic, please plan to stay after the service next Sunday, June 29, for a brief rehearsal.

SRF’s online How-to-Live Summer Program for children and teens ages 7 to 17, will be held July 16 through 20. Registration is open on the SRF website. A flier is posted on the bulletin board.

These weekly announcements also can be found on the back bulletin board.

Our topic today is How Even-mindedness Leads to God-Awareness.
