Recently our Board of Trustees shared the proposed budget for next year. As an opportunity to go deeper into the conversation around our budget, our values, and the role that each of us plays in the Fellowship, you are invited to a dessert gathering with fellow congregants. During the week of March 18, many members of UUFCM are opening their homes to small groups to connect with one another and to envision the best possible future for our Fellowship. What's great about this place? What could be even better? How can we work together to achieve our goals? On Sunday you can sign up for a dessert gathering on a specific date and time. Please see the Stewardship Team with any questions: Drew Frantz, Cynthia Damer, Gisela Moffitt, Amy Voege, Mary Alsager and Norma Bailey. |
As part of our efforts to change our habits, our Tool Kit for January focused on reducing plastics in our daily lives. We launched a new project: collecting totes or bags made out of cloth, netting, or durable plastics to use in grocery and other stores. The response was great!
We collected 31 such bags and donated most of them to Clothing, INC which will give them to their clients and encourage them to use them instead of single-use plastic bags. A big "Thank You" to everyone who donated bags or took some for their own use. We'll keep the collection box in the social hall for another month, so bring what you can and take what you need! It’s that time again! We are scheduled to provide dinners for the homeless shelter guests at St. John’s church on Tuesday, March 19, and Wednesday, March 20. If you are interested in helping, or in getting more information, please contact Joyce Henricks ([email protected]).
In March, we celebrate the birthdays of Charles Emerick, Leslie Hildebrandt, Beth Macleod, Victoria Sladek, Daniel Davis, and Kevin Daum. For the year to come, we wish them much joy, good health for body and mind, and new (ad)ventures. May it be so.
