Zoom access to the Salt & Light service has changed.
What is staying the same:
Anyone seeking to attend the service on Zoom will be able to participate in prayers (via chat) and communion.
Salt and Light sermons will still be recorded and posted to YouTube each week. Sunday sermons can be viewed on the Salt & Light YouTube Playlist.
What is changing:
There will no longer be slides guiding participants through prayers, readings and songs, but a PDF of the bulletin will be shared via Zoom chat. If you’d like a PDF emailed to you before Sunday for printing at home, email alisfingers@gmail.com.
Zoom chat, breakout rooms and group discussions will no longer be facilitated by staff or volunteers.
There will only be one camera giving the wider view of the Sanctuary.
What do you think about these changes? Whether or not you regularly attend services on Zoom, please fill out this Zoom Feedback Survey. CMLT will review the feedback and may integrate it into how we host services on Zoom in the future.

Thank you for your feedback! It is an expression of deep care for this community to share your experiences and thoughts, and we appreciate it.

SACRED PRESENCE & ACCOMPANIMENT
(spa)
SPA team members accompany and facilitate responses to the needs, opportunities and transitions of community members, the people in their lives and our community as a whole. We invite leadership in the creation and integration of rituals - prayer circles, community blessings, rites of passage - to accompany and mark transitions and life passages of all ages.
