UUFA: delfin bautista “Celebrating Tribal Connections” in our time of crisis

 

SUNDAY, APRIL 5th, 11am

CELEBRATING TRIBAL CONNECTIONS
by delfin bautista, via ZOOM online, and INTERACTIVE
At this time of social distancing, what does it mean to be community and fellowship with each other? What does solidarity look like in times of quarantine? delfín will explore indigenous, native, and latinx perspectives to community care inviting us to connect with traditions of resilience and thriving—not from dynamics of appropriation but of celebration of different ways of being and living community.
         Please join us to hear delfin bautista, who was an early part of the Unitarian Universalist Association’s experience with online worship when they worked as the program coordinator for the Unitarian Universalist Association’s Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Ministries program based in the UUA’s Washington, D.C. office. Please download the Zoom app to your computer, laptop, tablet, or smartphone sometime this week in advance of next Sunday. If you need help, call Wenda  740-818-1845.  We want everyone possible to join us next Sunday for an interactive online worship.

NEW WAY TO PAY YOUR PLEDGES (THANK YOU).

by Patrick Gordon

Most of you by now should have received information about Tithe.ly, our new online option for making and receiving  donations and  pledge contributions to the UUFA.

Tithe.ly is a well established product in use by over 13,000 congregations globally. Using this new method of contribution allows you for the first time to utilize credit and

debit cards. Best of all it integrates with our current Elvanto software.

There are three  ways to use Tithe.ly

                On the internet go to https://tithe.ly/give_new/www/#/tithely/give. Here you can set up an account that you can use to give

                You can text the word ‘give’ to (844) 669-5173 which is a dedicated phone number for the UUFA alone

                There is also a free Tithe.ly App available for both Android and Apple that you can download and use

So even though we cannot be together and pass the basket on Sunday we can continue to support the Fellowship as possible in a way that is easy to use.

As always remember  you can always send your checks to PO Box 333, Athens, OH 45701.
