Police Accountability Explained       

So what is the fuss about police accountability? Is it really a problem here in Rochester? Don't we already have a civilian review board?  Find answers to these questions at the Black Lives Matter/Youth Lives Matter Task Force presentation done in conjunction with Roc/ACTS this  Sunday, July 9 , 11:15am (following the church service) in the Youth Room. There is a new, serious proposal to address these concerns. For more information, email John Keevert.

Summer Books Sales Begin

Once again, we will be selling books in the Susan B. Anthony Lounge before and after Sunday service.  Please bring in books to add to our selection.  No text books, magazines, home improvement or technical books, no children's books or coffee table books.  Needed are fiction, history, biographies, mysteries and light reading for the summer.

Church Lighting

We have recently installed four new lights to illuminate the Winton Road side of our church building at night. Thank you, Richard Fitts, for providing the lights and the professional installation. This is a very generous gift for which we are all grateful.

Open to Life's Gifts - Golf in the UU Open

There's nothing quite like the beauty of a golf course and the joy of hitting a ball long and straight. Well, there might be other things in life that might compare, but if you are among those who really enjoy the fun of being on a golf course with some great companions, stop by the table in the Lobby this Sunday and sign up for the UU Open. We'll be playing Parkview Fairways for 9 holes in a scramble format and then gathering for some fun awards and dinner together. For just $45 if you walk or $50 if you ride a cart, you can enjoy all of this on Sunday, July 16, starting at 1:00pm. If you have any questions, or need to sign up via email, don't hesitate to connect with this year's coordinator, Larry Eldridge.

Food Cupboard Suggestion

See a "buy one get one free" sign? Consider giving the free one to the food cupboard. Lower summer church attendance means those who do come need to try harder. For questions or more information, email  Alison Wilder .
