Now, I don't especially like the term "church" so I may use something else... like "coven." You can do what you want. But I happen to have already mapped out an example. (It is exactly that, just an example, so take if it's useful, change if you need, and don't stick to anything too closely.) Oh, this mapping also means that you would, for religious reasons, only be allowed to work under capitalism 4 days a week instead of 5.
Given the increases in productivity over the last 100 years, a 4 day work week is a completely reasonable expectation. If we have to annex Monday for the weekend by force of religion, so be it. It is rightfully ours anyway. If enough people try it, this will probably work. If it doesn't work, it just needs more people.
The Practice of Worship:
It is recommended to break down worship in to three sections: the functional, the communal, and the spiritual. It is also recommended to break these across multiple days. A common structure for some Christian churches is to take 10-15 minutes for announcements (Functional), an hour or two for services (Spiritual), followed by (Communal) coffee, tea, and cookies for an unspecified time up to two hours after. When starting or working with limited time a single compressed model like this may work, but it's not optimal.
- The Functional
The purpose of this section is to address the functional needs of the coven. Block out time (less than 90 minute blocks is recommended) to go through reports and updates from those involved in the Dispensary, Library, Works Committee (infrastructure), and Services Committee (providing services internally and, potentially, externally). Talk through any additional announcements, including those from other covens you may be federated with.
It is helpful to include unstructured communal time, such as shared meals, during or after functional meetings. As the federation grows, more time will be needed. It is recommended to break functional meetings, work parties, and such across multiple days. When a federation becomes sufficiently large, it is recommended to take every Monday, on top of Saturday and Sunday, as a third day of community and worship.
The scope of the functional spans 3 realms (which may be more-or-less fluid): the personal or family, the coven and federation, and humanity itself. It is up to each coven and individual to negotiate how to allocate the three days of the weekend once we have liberated Monday from the work week, but it is important to reserve it for one of these three. However, some people must work on weekends. Medical personnel, for example, cannot conform to a standard work week. While the work week should be universally restricted, which specific days are used will be up to the specific coven and their members.
A functional meeting can start with an agenda like the following:
Functional Invocation
Announcements
Report Backs
Dispensary
Inventory Check
What is low
What is empty
What is expiring
What is needed
Funds status
Library
Inventory Check and Items needing return
Library acquisition requests
Funds status and budget check
Works Committee
Upcoming projects
Subcommittee updates (Following the Works Committee agenda)
New committee formations
Funds status
Services Committee
New capabilities announcements
New needs requests
Subcommittee updates (Following the Works Committee agenda)
New committee formations
Funds status
Task Check
Breaking the Circle
This agenda is a suggestion for those who don't know where to start. It can be adapted or ignored as appropriate.
- The Spiritual
Spirituality is necessarily an undefined space. It is deeply personal. Each individual taking time to share their own personal spiritual experiences can help each connect with each other. This experience of connection can itself be a spiritual experience. It may also be useful to read esoteric, mystical, or philosophical texts together as type of "book club" and share thoughts. Others may draw from their own knowledge or traditions. This is something that must be defined together within a group.
- The Communal
The communal aspect of the practice of worship bind the coven and federation together. Within the community we find joy and release, connection and comfort. The coven is where we turn in times of need, and where we share our hopes and dreams.

I am currently working on delivery, especially food delivery for around 8 into 9 hours a day.
The daily income is very small. It is not enough to meet my family daily needs.
And I often felt down, especially at the end of the day when I took a look at my earning of the day on the app.
But all of this dejected feeling has been always gone with the wind when I rode my bycycle.
After cycling, my fighting spirit is always reborn, like a conqueror ready to conquer the enti…

Yesterday, I ordered a new pair of hemp shoes from 8000kicks.
UPS says they had in in Leiria, Portugal 2 hours ago - and plan to deliver it to me BY END OF DAY. That's about 2000km in less than 12 hours.
I'm not sure if that means I have to clear the field outside our house for landing of a freight plane or a helicopter - or if I just should expect a giant crater.

Happy 5th birthday to #Wordle!
According to Wordle’s stats, I’ve played 1601 times. And because I first started playing on 5 January 2022, I missed playing 26 times.

Screenshot of Wordle’s 5 for 5 Challenge badge featuring a green shield with five haphazardly arranged stars on it and the text “5 Years” at its top, the text “Earned Jun. 19, 2026” above, the title “5 for 5 Challenge” below, followed by the following sentence “You earned this badge by successfully completing all 5 Wordle puzzles from June 15 - June 19, 2026, in celebration of 5 years of the game.” Finally, there’s a button below with the label “View all badges in the Game App”

Since falling in love with soccer during Euro 2000, I've never been so physically close to the World Cup (the first match in Toronto is later today). But I've never felt so distant from the competition. Few organizations are as good at finding new ways to disgust as FIFA and the US regime's actions - not just those focused on the World Cup, but those are bad enough - fill me with rage. In the past, I've plugged my nose and enjoyed the matches (I'm not proud). I can't …

Good morning! I replaced the morning walk with a morning ride. 😊 I tried to push a bit harder today for training. Next time should be lighter again. But it felt really good!

This image captures a first-person perspective of a cycling ride on a scenic, paved path through a lush, green landscape. The view is from the cyclist's handlebars, with the road stretching ahead into the distance, flanked by vibrant green meadows and a line of evergreen trees. The path is smooth and well-maintained, inviting a sense of freedom and adventure.

The cyclist's legs are visible at the bottom of the image, and the handlebars and a mounted device (likely a GPS or cycling computer) ar…
