>>
>> 1.. Wheel of Life/Joys & Sorrows should always be a component, but for
>> some services (such as the Water Ceremony) it can be incorporated into
>> the sharing statements.

>> effectiveness, it needs to be carefully introduced.
>> 4.. The Committee supports the encouragement of donations during the
>> service and also recommends that BRIDGES incorporate a collection as part
>> of the young people's classes. It would be good if they selected a
>> cause/purpose and then collected each week toward that goal.
