  1. This Blog to Be Terminated
    Due to non-use, this blog will not be updated after today.  The domain and hosting plan that have supported it will not be renewed, which will make this page unreachable after April 25 or so.  I (Dick Frantzreb) will set up a Dropbox folder for a record on hymns used, and I will share it with anyone who is interested.  (added 3/5/25)
     
  2. Next Sermon on the Mount Discussion
    From Message to The Mother Church for 1901 by Mary Baker Eddy:  "To my sense the Sermon on the Mount, read each Sunday without comment and obeyed throughout the week, would be enough for Christian practice."  Following on this thought, everyone is invited to assemble in our Reading Room on the first Monday of the month at 1:00 p.m. for a reading of the Sermon on the Mount.  The next session  is scheduled for April 7).  (updated 2/21/25)

    Every week for many years, we have had an ad in the Press-Tribune's "Community Worship Services" section, along with similar sections in the Rocklin Placer Herald and the Loomis News.  For most of that time, the content of the ad has changed very little.  For the month of March, our ad will highlight our Reading Room.  (updated 3/5/25)
