Spirit of Guemes
The Spirit of Guemes is an evolving organization, with roots in the Guemes Island Community Church, but now seeking to more broadly nurture the full variety of our Island’s spiritual activities, beliefs, and communities.

The Spirit of Guemes nurtures the full variety of our Island’s spiritual activities, beliefs, and communities. It is a place for us to practice and share the traditions we hold dear; for us to learn from the wisdom of others; and for us to gather and support each other during life’s important moments.
We invite folks who have vision and energy to join us in building The Spirit of Guemes. We’d love to have you share spiritual practices, nurture our communities, or lead us with organizational expertise. Please join our events so that you can benefit from the wisdom shared by your neighbors regarding meaning, purpose, and spirit
The Spirit of Guemes Board meets each month on the second Thursday. We usually meet at the Spirit of Guemes Center at 1:30PM. Occasionally we meet online via Zoom, so let us know if you would like to attend. spiritofguemes@gmail.com
The Spirit of Guemes Grief Circle meets every month on the last Sunday of the month. We meet at Spirit of Guemes Center at 12PM.
We acknowledge that we gather on the traditional territory of the Samish People, who have lived in the Coast Salish region for thousands of years. We understand that their identity and richness of culture are deeply connected with the mountains, valleys, waterways and shorelines that surround us all. We strive to nurture our relationship with indigenous peoples, especially our neighbors, by joining their efforts to work for social justice and stewardship for this land. We honor our relationship with all of our Coast Salish neighbors and our shared responsibilities to their homeland where we all reside today.
