Library Report – Pomona & Zoe
- Zoe reports on the library garden:
Thanks for all the great ideas! Working from suggestions received last month, I’ve finished decorating the atrium. It was a pleasure to do it!
Thursday
Worship Report (Sofia)
Here is the upcoming schedule for Thursday services through December of 2022. Note the color-coded blocks. Please double check the schedule for accuracy and availability. (The regular rotation is Zyzzy-Zoe-Sofia). I have included the pagan holidays led by Zoe, Raven and Prosper in the rotation following requests as indicated in earlier minutes. Hyacinth has volunteered to lead a service for November 17
October 27th (Samhain/Final Harvest)*Raven
November 17th Hyacinth
December 15th (Yule)*Raven
We need to update the Google calendar with services from Nov 10 forward; the last service noted on it is Nov 3rd. We may need to think about who needs login info for the Google account that has edit permissions for that calendar, or share edit permissions for that calendar with more than one other account as backup.

Saturday service – TED
- Saturday usually about 4 people at least, and always valuable conversations. Much appreciation to TED for leading Saturday services!
New Business
- Trolls and Griefers, policy and procedures: All members of LG now have the ability to do estate-wide bans, not merely parcel bans. We’d like to have a workshop so all the LG will know how to wield that power. Zoe could adapt something from Dublin security training that she underwent years ago and create a notecard for that workshop, and we can all have fun practicing freezing and ejecting one another.
- Proposal from Zyzzy to delete 3 of 4 users in fuucsl.org google workplace
- This would reduce our monthly cost from $12 to $3
- Login info would be shared with LG
Next meeting: October 27 at Pomona’s teahouse
After that, we won’t have a November meeting but will meet on December 1. (Remember we have one meeting in early December, instead of the two in November and December, to avoid holiday conflicts.)
The meeting was adjourned at 6:10 pm SLT.
Parking Lot : (revisit or delete)
- (Table until end of summer?)(Sofia) Should we as a congregation endorse the 8th principle? Sofia will take it as a topic in her series on the principles.
- 8th principle: wait for sermon to discuss this
