Solar Outdoors
Solar Outdoors is a Southeast Michigan based club with more than 400 members. Founded in 1975, Solar Outdoors remains dedicated to helping its members enjoy nature and outdoor activities. Membership in the club is required for full access to our Meetup site.  Annual dues are $6 for individuals.  Please read further if you are interested in becoming a club member.  Questions about membership can be directed to **[solarmembership@solaroutdoors.org](mailto:solarmembership@solaroutdoors.org)**.     \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* Solar Outdoors members themselves organize workshops and events in which other members can participate. Whether you are a beginner or experienced wilderness enthusiast, you will find workshops, activities, and trips for all skill levels and many different interests including--but certainly not limited to!--backpacking, day hiking, bicycling, cross-country skiing, paddling, orienteering, wildflower and tree identification, whitewater rafting, and geocaching. Solar Outdoors members can also borrow gear from our store of packs, sleeping bags and pads, stoves, and other outdoor equipment for an annual member fee of $35. To learn more about Solar Outdoors and its activities we encourage you to visit our website, [www.solaroutdoors.org](http://www.solaroutdoors.org/). There you will find a calendar of upcoming workshops and events. These sources give more information about who we are, what we do, and how we do it. We also welcome anyone interested in the club to attend our monthly meetings, held at **St. Paul's Presbyterian Church, 27475 Five Mile Road, just west of Inkster Road, in Livonia** on the last Tuesday of every month (except December) at 7 pm. SOLAR is not affiliated with St. Paul's or any other religious institution.  Directions are available here: [http://solaroutdoors.com/solarmeetings.html](http://solaroutdoors.org/About/Meetings.aspx).  The business meeting is followed by a program on a topic of general interest to our members. Solar Outdoors uses Meetup as a tool of convenience for our members to quickly get information about upcoming classes and activities and to sign up and pay for these events online. That's why our Meetup group is restricted to paid members of the club and non-members have very limited access. Once you have checked us out online and, we hope, in person by attending one of our monthly meetings, you can decide if becoming a member is right for you. If so, you can join the club by downloading the membership form ([http://solaroutdoors.com/downloads/S.O.L.A....](http://solaroutdoors.com/downloads/S.O.L.A.R_Membership_Application.pdf)), filling it out, and either submitting it with a check for the dues payment at one of the meetings or mailing both to the address listed on the bottom of the membership form. Once you are a club member you will have access to this Meetup group. Thank you for your interest in Solar Outdoors. We hope to meet you soon.

Southfield Embodied Process Groups: Indoor & Outdoor Options

Southfield, MI

Southfield Embodied Process Groups: Indoor & Outdoor Options
***Hello and welcome to your Wellness Beyond Words!*** When someone joins a process group, they become part of a conscious constellation with others, and the breadth of their life expands.   Group work holds deep potential for you to discover your own and other people’s infinity – and the extraordinary experience of being revealed together. **There may be nothing more needed in our world today.**   I facilitate several different ongoing, committed process groups. (One always meets outdoors, and the other three meet indoors, at the beautiful Evans Creek Lodge on the Rouge River.) The growth, bravery, safety and love that develops in these groups continue to mystify me. **Group members learn to be present with evermore of their most loving, wild, relational and authentic selves.** Together, they reclaim, nourish and strengthen. These experiences reach throughout group members’ lives and even seem to reach through time as well, healing old wounds, and pave the way for future successes. ​ ***What happens in a group?*** Many different things, for sure. But we often first settle into ourselves and the session with various forms of warming up, then check in with each other, which leads us to explore and support the needs and longings that are currently present. This generally involves some degree of revealing, moving, laughing, and learning, while feeling more seen and less alone. We close as a circle and return a couple weeks later to find our flow again. Somehow, over time, a kind of alchemy develops. And lives change.   ***Through group process you will also be able to…*** ​​ * Clarify your boundaries, wants and needs with others * Experience an extraordinary amount of group energy to help lift you beyond your current limits, in the timing that is compassionately attuned to your own growth * Have others there to reflect your strengths and the impact you make in the world * Learn how to tolerate and appreciate a growing capacity for vulnerability with others * Discover defensive patterns that may seem to keep you feeling safe, but are actually pulling you off course from your true longings and needs * Be in a space where differentness is explored as a gateway to intimacy as opposed to separation * Get more in touch with your body and integrate the great knowledge of your head with the rest of you! ***Facilitated by*** Bodymind Counselor, Jeremy Fulwiler, LMSW, ACCEP, CTS, who has an extensive history as a body psychotherapist treating trauma, mood, and more. These groups are not "therapy," however, but an opening to your individual and collective potential. **Group costs** range from $100 (Outdoor Core) to $120/month (Core Energetics Process Groups), which covers two sessions/month. A sliding scale is available where needed. Three-month (six session) initial commitment for new members helps maintain continuity and safety for all. The groups runs indefinitely with a maximum size of 12 members. More info at [www.wellnessbeyondwords.com](www.wellnessbeyondwords.com).

Our worship style is traditional in form with modern, contemporary elements mixed in. Communion is celebrated on the first Sunday of each month and other special occasions.

There is guest parking in front of our main sanctuary doors and our building is ADA-accessible. Click here for directions.

Dress ranges from very casual to semi-formal. Come as you feel comfortable! Sandals, jeans, ties, suits, and dresses are all welcome.

Every Fifth Sunday is a "Family Sunday" in which the whole family can worship together and children participate in special ways to learn about worship.

There are special services throughout the year including:

Ash Wednesday
Maundy Thursday
Good Friday
Easter Sunday
Christmas Eve, December 24, 2017

4:00pm - Family Service with all the Kids
10:00pm - Candlelight Lessons & Carols Service
During the Summer, several worship services are held outside in our pavilion, with special outdoor and/or fun activities to follow.

Dates TBD for Summer

WHEN YOU ARRIVE:

You can expect to be greeted with a warm smile, open heart, and the buzz of friendly chatter. You are welcome to grab a cup of coffee and a treat as you enter worship. After service, please join us for an extended time of hospitality with coffee, pastries, and other goodies. We would love to get to know you. Also, we invite you to turn in a Connection Card and pick up a free gift on your way out.

Children are invited to begin worship with their families. After the Gloria Patri, they are welcomed up for "A Time for Young Followers of Jesus" after which they will be dismissed to Sunday School. After the Hymn/Song after the Sermon, the children will be brought back into worship service. As a first-time guest, you are asked to come with them to fill out all the appropriate forms and meet the teachers.

The children will begin together with singing, then break up into two groups. Pre-K and Kindergarten kids meet in the Nursery, and Grade 1-5 meet their Kids Club Room.

Middle School and High School youth remain in worship service with the exception of "youth volunteer assistants".

Our nursery is staffed by volunteers or you may watch your own children if you choose. There is also a cry room at the rear of the sanctuary, where you can still participate and hear the worship service.

**THIS IS NOT AN ACTIVE MEETUP GROUP UNTIL DECEMBER 2025- This meetup group merged with the** **Bloomfield 65 yrs & Better Event and Movie Lovers! Meetup group.** **\* For information on all events after please visit the** **Bloomfield 65 yrs & Better Event and Movie Lovers! Meetup group to view upcoming events and submit your RSVP for the events you would like to attend.** **No events will be posted for the Marriage in Our Future, a Unique Group for Baby Boomers as of 11/19/22.** Thank you for your interest in our special group of 65 year old and better dynamic professionals who desire a fulfilling, exciting, committed relationship. \*\*\*PLEASE CAREFULLY READ THE DESCRIPTION OF THIS GROUP BEFORE JOINING.\*\*\* Our members have a unique, positive perspective on marriage and committed relationships. The members of this innovative group welcome the opportunity to connect face-to-face with fun loving, very active 65 year old and better professionals who currently reside in Michigan and have a current MI driver license or ID card. If you feel being in a committed relationship is important and you understand the health benefits, social advantage and emotional wellness experienced in a rewarding, loving relationship you will certainly enjoy our group and our discussions. If you desire a sincere life partner who will love and support you through the highs and lows of life, love, family, career and life goals we welcome you to become a valued member. Our members have already devoted a bit of time and energy that's necessary to learn how to be a loving, supportive and exciting partner. Being an active member in our discussions will further enhance your ability to generate and sustain the best relationship.  Our members have come to a point in their lives where they are no longer bitter sad or angry about past relationships. This is a safe, very enjoyable way to meet men and women at our discussions who share the same values, interests and relationship perspective. All of us in the group realize we can't meet that special someone if we sit at home or just post our profile throughout the internet. Our single members have heard of the perils of online dating with the profile photos that are 10 years old. It's increasingly difficult for busy 65 yrs. and better professionals to meet sincere, emotionally healthy people who share their desire for a fulfilling, fun and exciting relationship that has the potential to lead to marriage. Our members will actively support each other in our relationship goals as we thoroughly enjoy relationship discussions and also fun events/activities. Our group organizers will assist in making introductions at our discussions and events to make everyone feel welcome. If you have a friend, relative, neighbor or colleague who would be interested in our group *please* let them know about us!! On the advice of a very experienced relationship therapist we ask that divorced individuals have been divorced for a minimum of one year and widowed individuals have been widowed for 1 to 2 years. We look forward to meeting you soon at one of our events! You're welcome to attend one event to see what we're all about before joining. \*\*\*Members are automatically removed from the group after one year of zero event attendance.
