“One More Day…How Mindfulness Practice Can Help Us See What We Already Have.”
By Kojun (Nate Hayes)
Sunday 11am EST by Zoom
February 21, 2021
Join Kojun (Nate Hayes) as he talks about mindfulness meditation and how a dedicated practice can help us to be more fully present, more fully aware of our lives right in front of us and how much we already have.
Editor’s Note: Kojun, once again, is offering what might help each of us in the current moment. Who knows, listening to Kojun might even help you conquer the February, pandemic, and wintery mix doldrums of 2021.

NEWS FROM (UUFA PRESIDENT) SUUSAN
Greetings from snowy southeast Ohio! I hope you and yours are staying safe and warm.
Despite the cold outside, the UU Fellowship continues to share the warmth and community of our UU values. One of those values is providing material support for the work we do together by offering our time, talent, and treasure to our collective efforts.
With all this in mind, UUFA has kicked off our Stewardship Campaign for the 2021-2022 church year. Members and some Friends (if we had a mailing address for you) have been sent a pledge form and a letter from the Stewardship Committee. However, I know there are many people who receive this newsletter who like the Fellowship and appreciate what we do, but are not formally affiliated with us.
We continue to welcome one and all to participate in whatever way you feel most comfortable with, and we know that many folks’ finances are tight in these challenging times, but if you have any ability to pitch a few bucks in the Fellowship’s direction, we are most grateful! Closing our doors for COVID has put a pinch on the Fellowship’s finances as well, and WE NEED YOUR HELP!
Please contact me at president@uuathens.org for a paper copy of the pledge form, which is attached as a PDF far below. Donations can also be made by check mailed to UUFA, PO Box 333, Athens, OH 45701, or via Paypal or Tithe.ly
Peace, Suusan suusanw.uu@gmail.com ; 240-305-0860
