Gratitude

SENDING A RARE SECOND TIME, BECAUSE COMPUTER/INTERNET GREMLINS FAILED TO SEND IT TO EVERYONE. PLEASE NOTE Mosha Trout has postponed until January 8th, and our UCM/UUFA Auction is Sunday evening December 4th.

Come join our Service this Sunday, November 20th, 11am by Zoom or in person wearing an N95 or KN95 mask.

Please join us this Sunday, November 20 at 11:00 for our service on “Gratitude”. We’ll explore the ways that gratitude improves our lives. As we approach the Thanksgiving holiday we’ll talk about Gratitude and why it’s good for us! We hope to see you Sunday.

MASK NOTES: Our board is still requiring KN95 or N95 masks (NO FABRIC MASKS, and no surgical masks, either) of folks entering the building for Sunday services. We have many folks who truly appreciate us flipping the “usual narrative.” Usually Zoom is for those who are at risk where in-person places are not safe for them. At the fellowship, we’re doing Zoom for anyone who doesn’t want to wear a nk95 or n95 mask thus keeping the fellowship safe for the most vulnerable. We do, however, allow our presenters to unmask when speaking in the front of the fellowship if they wish.
