FEED THE HUNGRY WITH OUR FRIENDS IN FAITH
Our friends at Temple Shalom have invited us to participate in an interfaith effort, along with Good Shepherd Lutheran, Trinity United Methodist, and Muslims4Community, to feed the hungry at a holiday meal on December 23rd at Trinity United (just down Garland from UUFF). There are roles for introverts and extroverts--shopping for groceries, prepping food the day before the meal, then cooking and serving the day of, followed by clean-up.
If you're willing and able to contribute to this joyful and deeply needed service, here's what you need to do:
2. Call a friend at UUFF to come serve with you.
3. Sign up for your slot(s).
4. Send an email to Lora Florick,
brahmaeidae@gmail.com
, to let her know you are from UUFF and you signed up to help.
