On Sunday, November 15, we kicked off our congregation's annual celebration of the tradition of Guest at Your Table, a Unitarian Universalist Service Committee (UUSC) program. We shared a short video of the Stories of Hope from this year’s campaign at the worship service as our Story for All Ages. We ask that you donate either electronically on our website to the Social Justice Fund or by sending a check made out to UUFCM, with UUSC in the memo line, to our treasurer Terrie Robbie, P. O. Box 41, Mt. Pleasant, MI 48858-0041. Please donate by November 30.
On Sunday, November 15, we will kick off our congregation's annual celebration of the tradition of Guest at Your Table, a Unitarian Universalist Service Committee (UUSC) program. While we will not be able to do our traditional program and collection at our annual harvest feast, we will share a short video of the Stories of Hope from this year’s campaign at the worship service as our Story for All Ages. We will then ask for your donations either through donating electronically on our website to the Social Justice Fund or by sending a check made out to UUFCM, with UUSC in the memo line, to our treasurer Terrie Robbie, P. O. Box 41, Mt. Pleasant, MI 48858-0041. Please donate by November 30.
The UUSC, an associate member of the Unitarian Universalist Association, is a nonsectarian organization that advances human rights and social justice in the United States and around the world. Through a combination of advocacy, education, and partnerships with grassroots organizations, UUSC promotes the rights of workers, advances environmental justice, defends civil liberties, and preserves the rights of people in times of humanitarian crisis. Its vision and mission are guided by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the seven Unitarian Universalist principles that affirm the worth, dignity, and human rights of every person. By helping to make UUSC's work possible, we are all helping to support the interdependent web of life of which we are all a part and promote the inherent worth and dignity of every person. If you were unable to make your donation to the Unitarian Universalist Service Committee’s Guest at Your Table Program at the Harvest Feast – don’t despair! - we will be accepting donations this coming Sunday, December 1. Donation envelopes and Stories of Hope can be found in the foyer outside the sanctuary as well as the UUSC box in which to drop your donation envelope.
Thanks to all of you who so generously donated to the UU Service Committee (UUSC) at our UUSC Guest at Your Table program at the Harvest Feast on November 19. We were able to send $905.36 to UUSC to support their efforts to bring hope to so many in need.
A big thank you to all who so generously donated to the Unitarian Universalist Service Committee (UUSC) at our Guest at Your Table celebration on November 20 at the Harvest Feast. A total of $1099 was sent to the UUSC from our fellowship to help with their social justice efforts around the world. Once again, a big thank you to our youth who also participated in the worship service or with the music at the dinner – Josh Daniels, Chiron Finn, Izzy Rollins, Tolby Busch, Roman Damer-Daigle, and Reid Sladek.
