Attached is the latest information and a brochure (sorry, currently only in Latvian) for the LELBA retreat (Draudžu Dienas) that will be held from September 2-6 at the West Coast Latvian Educational Center (Kursa), in Shelton. Our own pastor Daira Cilnis is organizing and leading this event, so we hope to get lots of our congregation members to participate for at least one or two days – there will also be lectures and discussions in English. We will also be kicking off the celebration of our congregation’s founding 60 years ago with a salmon barbeque and picnic on Sunday, September 5th.

Šo pasākumu vada mūsu paša mācītāja – Daira Cilne. Ceram, ka kupls skaits mūsu draudzes locekļi varēs piedalīties vizmaz daļu no šī laika. Vismaz mēģināsim svetdien, 5. septembrī aizbraukt, jo sāksim mūsu draudzes 60 gadu dibināšanas jubilējas svinības ar kopēju pikniku un laša barbeque.

With sadness we inform you of the passing of our congregation member Aldonis Ābers on May 21 in Latvia. No memorial serivce is scheduled in Seattle, but will be held instead in Latvia in July. The family wishes that donations in Aldonis’ memory be made to the Seattle Latvian Ev. Luth. Church.
Ar džiļām skumjām ziņojam, ka š.g. 21. maijā, Laidas pagastā, miris mūsu draudzes loceklis Aldonis Ābers. Piemiņas dievkalpojums Seattlē nenotiks, bet ir paredzēts Latvijā jūlijā. Piemiņai, ģimene lūdz, lai ziedotu Seattles Latviešu Ev. Lut. draudzei.

As part of our mission to make the Seattle Latvian Church accessible to as many people as possible, we are experimenting with technologies like streaming audio. If you click on the title / link below, you should hear Rev. Cilnis’ January 10, 2010 sermon. On most desktop computers, the audio will be played by the site’s own audio player. However, on some computers and mobile devices, the link will download the file and/or open it in the device’s default audio player.

January 10, 2010 sermon (in Latvian)

To skip ahead or replay a section, simply click on the desired section of the timeline (the blue line that appears under the title once it is playing). Clicking the “download” button in the player will, in most cases, play the audio file through the default media player on your computer (e.g. Windows Media Player, RealPlayer, QuickTime, etc.) or mobile device. If you wish to save the audio file to a Windows PC, you can right-click on it with your mouse and select “Save Target As…” Other computer types will have alternate methods for saving download files. The native file format for the audio is MP3.

If you get a moment, we would love to read your feedback and comments about this experiment. If you have any other requests or suggestions, please be sure to note those, too!
