Blessing of the Animals
A service for all ages and all species! All pets who are friendly with other pets are welcome on leash or in a carrier. For those pets overwhelmed by such events, their person can bring a picture. We will take a moment to remember pets who are no longer with us if you would like to bring a picture of them as well. For our younger generations, if you have a special stuffed toy animal who needs a blessing, please bring them as well.

Christmas Caroling in Spring Lakes Park. UUF choir members will be
caroling in the Spring Lakes Park clubhouse in Scotts Valley from 2:00
to 3:00 p.m. on Sunday, December 13. Two members of the UUF choir,
Helen Oxley and Dave Andrew, are residents of Spring Lakes Park, and
they are also members there of a park choral group. The caroling event
will be a sing-along, and everyone is invited. Please join us.
The park is located at 225 Mt. Hermon Rd. in Scotts Valley. To find it
from Highway #17, exit on Mt. Hermon Rd. Continue past Scotts Valley
Drive, a major intersection, and turn left at the next stoplight. There
is no street sign at the stoplight, but "Spring Lakes Park" appears
on a stone wall at the park entrance. Continue straight into the park
and find the clubhouse by the flagpole.
