The Adult RE Team and Reverend Drew are offering a book discussion group using the UUA Common Read “On Repentance and Repair” for two sessions - Sunday, May 5 and May 12, at noon. See Drew to get your copy of the book.
On April 28, Stacey Pattison and Laura McBride will lead the service in celebration of National Poetry Month. During this interactive service, friends and members of the congregation will read a favorite poem to the congregation. This will be in lieu of a regular sermon message. You are encouraged to contact Laura (Lmcbride010@gmail.com or 989.772.5512) or Stacey (staceyp555@gmail.com or 989.330.1832) with your favorite poem to share with us! It could be silly, poignant, descriptive, or evocative. You may share your own poem or that of another poet. Please consider being a part of this service as we welcome warmer days and sunny skies!
Our paint and pizza party to paint our UUFCM banner to hang in downtown Mt. Pleasant was a great success! We painted, ate pizza, painted some more, and finished our masterpiece in record time! Great thanks to Darlene Ritchie for designing our banner and organizing our work and to the children who painted, Felix, Isla, Mairi, Rose and Savannah, and their parents who pitched in too!
Our stewardship campaign is in full swing! You should have received your stewardship packets by now with explanations and directions about how to make your pledge as well as explain our interesting incentives - incentives to turn in your pledge form early, increase your pledge amount, and/or pledge for the first time! There is also a new volunteer form to let us know ways in which you would like to share your time and talents.
Please be sure to read the materials right away and take action by April 21. If you have questions, contact anyone on the Stewardship Committee – Mary Alsager, Norma Bailey, Cynthia Damer, Drew Frantz, Gisela Moffit, and Amy Voege. |
