February Drumming Circle

The Drumming Circle evenings are always great fun.
This was only half of the group in attendance - you can
imagine the meditative sounds when a room of 15-20
people begin the rhythm of drumming. We are so grateful
and blessed to have Marilyn leading our circle, and thank
you to Yvette for the pictures.

On Sunday, January 11, 2009, Common Ground Corona had its first Covenant Fellowship Ceremony. We shared the experience with Common Ground in Tustin, and what a beautiful experience it was. Each Covenant person randomly selected a sacred word representing what they are called to be in Spiritual Community as well as in the world at large.

Rev. Danell: Compassion


Russ: GENTLENESS

Renee: SINCERITY

Bill: GRACE

Jean: FAITH

Briana: BEAUTY

Susan: ENTHUSIASM

Greg: OPENNESS

Molly: AWE

Much gratitude to Revs. Judy and Glenda and the Covenant Fellowship group in Tustin for making this such a memorable event and welcoming all of us with open arms. A very special thank you to Rev. Susan for assisting Common Ground Corona with placing our jewels on Indra's Net.
