DUE TO THE STORM, THE MEETING HAS BEEN SWITCHED TO ZOOM. Topic: DC Horror Reading Conspiracy Time: Jan 29, 2026 07:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada) Join Zoom Meeting https://us06web.zoom.us/j/86857350919?pwd=uj141vrNyClVamRt8LyDRPa41CUNka.1 Meeting ID: 868 5735 0919 Passcode: 825563 To kick off 2026, we're reading the master, Stephen King, with one of his later entries, The Outsider. From Amazon: "An unspeakable crime. A confounding investigation. At a time when the King brand has never been stronger, he has delivered one of his most unsettling and compulsively listenable stories. An 11-year-old boy's violated corpse is found in a town park. Eyewitnesses and fingerprints point unmistakably to one of Flint City's most popular citizens. He is Terry Maitland, Little League coach, English teacher, husband, and father of two girls. Detective Ralph Anderson, whose son Maitland once coached, orders a quick and very public arrest. Maitland has an alibi, but Anderson and the district attorney soon add DNA evidence to go with the fingerprints and witnesses. Their case seems ironclad. As the investigation expands and horrifying answers begin to emerge, King's propulsive story kicks into high gear, generating strong tension and almost unbearable suspense. Terry Maitland seems like a nice guy, but is he wearing another face? When the answer comes, it will shock you as only Stephen King can." Please note: This location isn't handicapped-friendly. If that doesn't work for you, please let us know.

Is there hidden value in the difficulties and hardships of life, or are these things just to try to get past as quickly as possible? If so, how can we emerge from the current world crisis we are facing as stronger, more resilient individuals and communities? When we look at the difficult moments of our lives, aren’t those often the times when we grew the most? So many valuable lessons in life and growth opportunities are hard-won, often coming out of these trying moments. So why are we so focused on avoiding these difficulties? From this perspective, how would we as individuals and as a society confront the inevitable struggles we will be faced with? How can we build stronger communities that ensure not only that we don’t have to face struggles alone, but that we as individuals will emerge stronger as well? Come join a different kind of conversation – one that welcomes every perspective in a search for the truths that unite us all – as we discuss the spiritual perspective offered by the Bahá’í Teachings on the opportunity for growth during times of struggle. Join us for a lively discussion as we reflect on the meaning of the struggles of life and explore the true nature of progress. *“The troubles of this world pass and what we have left is what we have made of our souls.”* – Bahá’í Teachings \*\*\* This event is free and open to all regardless of background or belief. Donations will not be accepted.

Capoeira (capo-way-ra) is an Afro-Brazilian martial art that is unlike any other martial art. Capoeira incorporates flowing movements with kicks, dodges, and some acrobatics. It is often mistaken for a dance for those reasons. Since it’s origins in the 17th century, it has evolved from a secret fighting practice into an art emphasizing self-expression and community celebration. It is great for the body and mind! In addition to gaining strength and flexibility in class, students learn about Brazilian culture, history, and language (Portuguese). On November 26, 2014 capoeira was granted a special protected status as "intangible cultural heritage” by UNESCO. No need to have a Capoeira background to join this class, just an open mind to try out a new way to move! Beginners welcome. **Please reserve your spot at www.piesfitnessyoga.com**.

MCKS PRANIC HEALING® Level I In PRANIC HEALING® Level 1, you learn the basics of working with your energy aura, including learning to "scan," or feel the energy, to "sweep," or clean away congested energy, and to "energize," or supplement areas in your aura that have a pranic deficiency. PRANIC HEALING® has been taught to doctors, nurses, massage therapists, acupuncturists, chiropractors, shiatsu practitioners, and many others in the healing field. It has allowed them to heal confidently and consistently in the shortest learning time possible. These professionals find PRANIC HEALING® very effective and easy to apply. Other topics covered in PRANIC HEALING® Level 1: Energetic anatomy: You will learn to work with the network of chakras, meridians and auras to accelerate the healing processes of your body. Preventive healing: You will learn to remove the negative energetic patterns of a disease to prevent it from fully manifesting as a physical ailment.

Are you in chronic pain that never seems to resolve, no matter who you see? Are you in a therapy loop of get better, get worse? Are you only getting your symptoms resolved and not the cause. I get it! I have been there. I have taken continuing education classes in therapies that have given me longer lasting results since they are the whole person approach. These consultations are 30 minutes each with a 15 minute mini session of neurokinetic therapy and Rapid Neurofascial Re-set and 15 minutes of question/answer. These consults are only available on this day and time since this is not something I normally offer. This gives you the option of sampling these therapies before deciding if you want to commit to a new client package. The consults are $60 each plus sales tax, which comes to $64.80. All spots are pre pay by the day before the event, non cancellable, non refundable and non transferrable. This is because people say they are showing up to stuff without showing up. Once the spot in paid for in full, I will schedule you your spot. If you decide to schedule a new client package during your consult, that $60 you paid for your consult will be deducted from the regular price of the new client package. This offer is only available during the consult. You can learn more about me and these therapies by visiting my website. My website also contains my contact information: https://columbusmassage.abmp.com/
