Sunday Service November 26 2023

“Seeds of Community “

 

 

 

Please join us for Sunday service as we spend time thinking about our community and how we nourish it through our involvement.  We welcome service leader, Nellie Werger.

Special Fund to Assist Evan, Susan, Lauren and William Young – The Young Family has suffered a terrible accident.  Their youngest, William is injured and in need of special support once he comes home from hospital. There is a Go Fund Me account set up for assistance.  If you would like to contribute, we can take a special collection at UUFA –  please put your donation in a sealed envelope and Barb Harrison will see that it gets to the Youngs. If you prefer a non-tech method just leave it with Barb or send along to the fellowship and we will see that it gets to them.  The total need is $80,000.  Here is the link to the Go Fund Me account
