We have one more meal on Tuesday, March 3. Checks made payable to UCC with “homeless meals” in the memo are gratefully appreciated. Thanks to all who have found contributing in some way to these meals a meaningful outreach.
SPRING FELLOWSHIP DINNERS – It’s time to sign up in fellowship hall for the Spring Fellowship Dinners, which will take place in March and April. Attending the dinners is a good way to become better acquainted with other UCC members and to meet people you may not know. It’s always a lot of fun to get together and not too much work for anyone as the host furnishes the entree, and all the guests bring a dish. We welcome both members and non-members. If you are willing to host, please indicate the number of people you can accommodate for dinner, including yourself. Sign up today on the PIC Board in fellowship hall for a great time! Sign-ups will end the last Sunday in February, February 26th.
PARISH INFORMATION CENTER – PIC BOARD for short. The UCC PIC board is located in fellowship hall. It is a tri-fold six foot tall bulletin board covered in burgundy fabric. The PIC board displays registration sheets for upcoming events at UCC, information about upcoming events at UCC and in the community, and thank you notes and newsletters from community partners, members, and letters from members that have moved away, etc… There is also a wellness corner that features news articles about current health and wellness topics. And a members corner with articles written by UCC members and staff, or about UCC members.
