Hurry
From Marston:
THE PRICE GOES UP $100 PER PERSON AFTER JAN 31. FOR THE WORLD CONGRESS IN PUEBLA, MEXICO. IF YOU WANT THE LOWEST FEES, PLEASE REGISTER ON OR BEFORE JAN 31. (Last one in is a rotten tortilla.)
Don’t forget we have our annual meeting this Sunday Jan 26 after latihan/lunch at the Seattle Subud house. Please bring a potluck dish to contribute for a healthy, delicious lunch. Or bring pizza. (Gluten free pizza.) Following lunch we will have our annual meeting. Find out what’s going on in Subud. The current Dewan has been in office for one year. What do you like about Subud Greater Seattle in that time? What could use work? Are we done with Forgiveness Days, or are we just getting started? Come share your thoughts, help us build a better Subud community and hear about plans for the coming year from your Dewan.

I have sad news. Longtime Subud member Rochanah Weissinger passed away unexpectedly last night. She died in her home possibly of a heart attack. She will be greatly missed by her family and the many friends she has made over the years.
Rochanah was a member in Marin, LA and most recently Chico. She served as a Helper, California Chairman and Zone 7 Representative for WSA. She was a strong advocate for others and she was a steadfast friend of the Cuban members. She will be deeply missed.
May God gently guide her passage.
This from the January Subud E-Blast:
On Saturday, December 28, Subud Washington DC had a selamatan to pray for the assembly of the new Subud house. About 40 brothers and sisters attended, from Subud Central MD, Northern VA, Fairfax, New York, and Washington DC. John Tjia, chairperson of Subud NY was present to represent Subud NY. There was a simultaneous latihan for men and women; East Coast Regional Helpers who could not attend did latihan long distance. Afterwards, a potluck dinner was served.
The remaining tasks that need to be completed before occupancy are: geothermal/HVAC, electricity, water connection, grading, sidewalks, deck, landscaping, and furnishing. $50,000 of the $200,000 still needed has been raised in the last few weeks. For those wishing to assist, send a check to Subud Washington DC c/o Barbara Thomas, 5957 Second St., Deale, MD 20751.
The minutes of our January 5th meeting are now available for you to read including our financial report, plans for our 2014 budget and an update on our Spring Street Center.
Enjoy them here.

From Halimah Bellows:
Here is a copy from my press kit about my career quest cards – now an app. I would most appreciate it if you would be so kind as to download it on your iphone, ipad, itunes, kindle and/or android devices (and it is also available on Amazon) and if you feel inclined write a review.I would love to hear from you – about the app but also how you all are doing as well. Re the app- . As far as I can tell, it is the only career search app of its kind. And the more downloads, the higher up in goes on the search pages. Thanks so much. The urls are below but you can search for it under Career Quest on all platforms and it should come up. Again thank you all so much. Take care. I love you. Halimah

From local helper Jim O’Halloran:
We will have some testing after general Latihan next Sunday around forgiveness, starting with the verbiage from last week: “Almighty God we pray that you will grant us what we each need to be able to forgive one another and ourselves and to heal old hurts. That we may each of us find a way to create goodwill and harmony within our group.”
I would like to test What would Almighty God have me know about myself to be more effective at forgiving myself and others;
How would Almighty God have me go about forgiving myself and others?
What stands in my way of forgiving? (maybe if appropriate do a Latihan to change what is received)
Does anyone else have questions they would like to test? Halimah, I think you have some-could you reply?
