Dear Friends,
November is a month in which
we often give more attention to
gratitude and thankfulness.
The season of Thanksgiving is upon us. The Mod-
erator Team and your pastors decided to give you
an opportunity throughout the month to practice
giving thanks. As a preparation for worship (or
other times through the week), you will be invited
to deposit notes of gratitude and thanksgiving to
our Gratitude Wall that will be placed in the Nar-
thex on the way into the Sanctuary. We’ll provide
materials but you can also bring your own notes
from home.
Diana Butler Bass, “the author of the multiple
award-winning Grounded and leading trend spotter
in contemporary Christianity, will have a new book
coming out in April of 2018 and in it, she explores
why gratitude is missing as a modern spiritual
practice, offers practical suggestions for reclaiming
it, and illuminates how the shared practice of grati-
tude can lead to greater connection with God, our
world, and our own souls.
More and more people are finding God beyond the
walls of traditional religious institutions, but these
seekers often miss the church community itself,
including its shared spiritual practices such as grat-
itude. While four out of five Americans have told
pollsters they feel gratitude in their daily lives,
Bass finds that claim to be at odds with the discon-
tent that permeates modern society. There is a
gap, she argues, between our desire to be grateful
and our ability to behave gratefully—a divide that
influences our understanding of morality, worship,
and institutional religion itself.
In Grateful, Bass challenges readers to think about
the impact gratitude has in our spiritual lives, and
encourages them to make gratitude a "difficult and
much-needed spiritual practice for our personal
lives and to make a better world." Maybe our own
communal practice of gratitude and thanksgiving
will do just that – with God’s help - make our lives,
our church and our world better, healthier and
more whole.
Get ready, get set, give thanks!
Reverend Gail

Our Vision
At Danville Congregational Church we welcome you to a progressive spir-itual community that is open and affirming, celebrates differences, and encourages alternate views. We explore the Bible with curiosity and en-thusiasm, taking it seriously but not literally. Taking Christ’s call passion-ately to love our neighbor, we extend our faith into action for the betterment of all. Wherever you are on life’s journey, we offer you a place of peace and hope.

Church Camp
Wow! What a fantastic time we had up at Camp Caz.
Almost 60 of us from DCC were present! Thank you to everyone who pitched in to make this another resound-ing success, especially Amy Furber Dobson for her knowledge of all things Camp Caz and her energy and enthusiasm. It was such a special time of connection with one another, with nature, and with God.
Our Sunday morning service outdoors is always deeply spiritual. I feel that our singing can go out and touch the farthest regions of the world! We spent time with our friends from Sonoma First Congregational and little did we know how their lives would change just a week lat-er, as the fires blazed through their community. Our thoughts and prayers are with them all. We have booked camp for next year – yeah! Mark your calendars for September 28 – 30, 2018. Please let Joyce Klassen know if you want to be involved in the planning for next year.

Author Event
November 30, 2017 at Noon
There will be an entrance fee of $10 which will be re-funded should you purchase a book. We hope that you will put this event on your calendar for Nov 30 at noon and plan to be part of this exciting opportunity. This event is in collaboration with Rakestraw Books.
The following information on the book is taken from
the Amazon website:
‘In layered prose and with thoughtful, accessible schol-
arship, Aslan narrates the history of religion as one long
and remarkably cohesive attempt to understand the
divine by giving it human traits and emotions. Accord-
ing to Aslan, this innate desire to humanize God is
hardwired in our brains, making it a central feature of
nearly every religious tradition. As Aslan writes,
“Whether we are aware of it or not, and regardless of
whether we’re believers or not, what the vast majority
of us think about when we think about God is a divine
version of ourselves.”

8 The Good News
Youth OWL Class
Our Whole Lives (OWL) grades 6 – 8 group continues
to meet twice a month from 6:00-8:00 P.M. on Thurs-
days and we will continue this schedule for the balance
of the school year. The entire youth group continues to
meet on Sundays from 6:00 – 8:00. Our students’
commitment to both our youth classes is strong as
demonstrated by the strong attendance.
There will be multiple opportunities this year for church
members to participate in various youth fundraising
events, including another contribution project with
SAVERS in Dublin and dining out to benefit youth. Stay
tuned for further information in upcoming newsletters
and emails regarding all these activities. This year’s
profits will be applied towards the June Youth Confer-
ence in Hawaii.
A Massage from Lynda
To my dear friends at DCC, We have been through a lot together these past 12 years: laughter and tears, joy and pain, the thrills of adventure and the peace of reflection. I’ve come to know you as friends, dear as family. It is a season of change for all of us. We are facing many challenges, together and individually, and it is an appro-priate time for all of us, me and the congregation, to fo-cus on our health and well-being. I will miss our day-to-day interactions, but I will continue in my role as your biggest cheerleader. I wish you all the best, from the bottom of my heart. Love and peace, Lynda

Responding to the North Bay Fires Thank you to everyone who donated October 15 during worship. We collected $1,500 for the First Congrega-tional Church of Sonoma as they help their members rebuild after the devastating wildfires.

If you are interested in serving as DCC’s volunteer coordinator for the fire recovery, please contact Rev. Gail, Rev. Eric, or Kristina Kelchner. _____________________________________________________________

Women of DCC
Would you like to get out once a month to walk,
talk and connect with more of the brilliant women of
our congregation/community?? Come join us.
We’ve got two dates to get us started and see how this
goes. Initially we’ll make them pretty easy walks and
then see what the group would like to do. We’ll meet in
the back for the DCC carpark on Saturday Nov 11 and
Saturday Dec 16 and carpool to some walking are-
as. Let’s meet at 8.30 am and plan to be back no later
than 11am – still time to hit the Farmers Market or get
on with your Saturday activities :)
Please email [email protected] to say if you
are interested in being on the group list and include

Faith Journeys
Recommended Read for Fall 2017
Scattering Seeds: Cultivating Church Vitality, by
Stephen Chapin Garner with Jerry Thornell
The Moderator Team and Faith Journeys Commission encourage all members and friends of DCC to join us this fall in exploring Scattering Seeds: Cultivating Church Vitality. Copies of the book are available in Koinonia Hall to read and share. Pastor Eric and Pastor Gail will be referring to ideas from the book
during their sermon series this fall.
In Scattering Seeds: Cultivating Church Vitality, Stephen Chapin Garner and Jerry Thornell share the story of their home congregation, the United Church of Christ in Norwell, MA. This average congregation has approached congregational life in a not-so-average way. Each congregant is seen as a minister, bringing the good news of Christ to the community; the church has moved away from boards and committees, instead utilizing the people to form ministry teams; and they have revitalized the way they approach and practice worship and education. Garner and Thornell don’t claim to have the secret to church growth and vitality, but in sharing the story of their simple church in New England, they give hope and innovative ideas to congregations in regions all over the country.

10 The Good News
Mother Teresa Text
The text below, found on the wall of Mother Teresa’s
home, was recited during worship on Sunday, October 22
2017. Many of you asked for a copy of the text.
People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulteri-or motives. Be kind anyway.
If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jeal-ous. Be happy anyway.
The good you do today may be forgot-ten tomorrow. Do good anyway.
Give the best you have, and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway.
In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.
Keeping in Touch
There are several ways you can stay up to date on
what's happening at DCC and be in contact with other
members and friends:
There is a weekly email (usually sent on Thursday) with information about what's happening in the life of the church. If you are not receiving it and would like to, please let the office know.
The Sunday bulletin also contains lots of great infor-mation.
The newsletter comes out monthly, both electronically and in print. Are you receiving the print copy, but would rather receive it in your email (saving paper and post-age)? Or are you not receiving either? Please let the office know.
If you are in a circle, you should be receiving the weekly prayer requests from your caring coordinator. If you are not in a circle but would like to be, please contact Kim Michaud.
Are you in our electronic directory? Is your information up to date? Not sure? Be sure to check it out! For mo-bile phones, go to your app store and download the Instant Church Directory app. On your computer, go to www.instantchurchdirectory.com and click on "church member sign-in." Then follow the directions to create a login (you must use the email address you have posted in the DCC directory). Voila, you now have in-stant access to contact information for all of your church friends wherever you are!
Please remember, our church directory and any per-sonal contact information the church has collected about our members and friends may only be used for fostering the fellowship and ministry of the church and not for commercial use or gain.
