This Sunday will also include a Children’s Program focusing on the Sixth Principle: Working for a peaceful, fair and free world. Children will also participate in the service rituals, such as ringing the bell to begin and lighting and extinguishing the Chalice. Mary Hotvedt was one of the original organizers of the 2013 festival and is co-chair for the 2017 festival. This year’s Festival runs from September 29-October 1, and the theme is "Word Travels Fast." Mary will talk about why there is a literary festival in Silver City; and how they choose the authors and select activities. She will also touch on the role of inclusiveness in the festival organization, both in terms of the presentations, how the festival is put together and what makes the SWFWW unique among literary festivals. There will be coffee and conversation after the service and visitors are always welcome.
