We celebrated the 20 Anniversary of our Charter with the UUA this weekend. It was a wonderful experience! On Saturday, we had a party that was full of laughter, delicious food and drink, and above all an excellent program where members of the fellowship shared their talents and where everybody got involved in interactive games. A big thank you to the emcees, Laura McBride and David Macleod, our computer guru, David Allan, and Nancy White and Chris Bailey who created the slideshow, the Trivia game, and the program. Our Sunday service was also very special. Rev. Lisa Presley from the MidAmerica Region of the UUA gave a moving and motivating sermon. Our choir featured the premiere of our UUFCM Celebration Anthem which we had commissioned Dr. David Wolfson to compose. A big thank you to the choir members, the choir director, Norma Bailey, and the pianist, Beth Macleod. Many thanks to the Coordinating Committee, who worked for a year and a half to organize the weekend: Laura McBride, Gisela Moffit, Debbie Reid, Janis Shinn, Annette Pratt, Jennifer Prout, Amy Voege, and Nancy White. Thanks, too, to the Social Justice team for organizing the Share Your Soles campaign, to the Building and Grounds Team which organized a workday where we spruced up the building, and to all the people who made special foods for the party and who helped with set-up and take-down. |
