Volunteers Needed for Pridefest
Saturday, August 26, 2017
As a sponsor of Pride Fest, the Cedar Valley Unitarian Universalists will again have an informational booth on August 26 in support of LGBT rights. As a Welcoming Congregation, we feel it is imperative that our LGBT brothers and sisters know that there are religious denominations that support them. Our presence at Pride Fest depends on volunteers to greet visitors to the booth, give out home-made cookies, provide rainbow face-painting, and answer questions about our congregation. If you are able to help staff the booth for a two-hour shift, or want to contribute cookies, please contact Sally Browne at 319-342-2753 or at sallyb758@gmail.com.  Or, sign up for a shift on the sign-up sheet available on the big bulletin board in the downstairs meeting hall at the CVUU.
Touchstone
Something NEW!
Our congregation has joined the Touchstone Project. This is a UU project to bring new reading and activities to UUs in church and at your home. Each month we will have a beautiful and inspiring Journal for you to enjoy at home . . . with daily readings, discussions for kids, and more!
