Pure Imagination
 
In these tumultuous times there are few things that can offer hope like imagination.

To dream together, to create a world that recognizes the sacredness of life, cares for the most marginalized and oppressed, and celebrates the joy and beauty of the world, this is the task of the religious community. Let us imagine what might be possible together.

TGIF Hosts Needed

Hosts are needed for our Summertime TGIF's.

Our "Thank Goodness It's Friday" POTLUCK social gatherings are a popular way of deepening our UU Community. All are welcome to come, even if they cannot always bring a dish to share. The hosts put out a basket for donations to help defray costs.
  
Hosting involves opening your home, back yard (or the Fellowship) from 5-7 PM, on Friday evening;  providing wine, soda and water, plates, cups and napkins. The guests bring the rest.

Please call Jan Taylor at 332-4489, to host (or co-host) one of our Community's well-loved TGIF's.
