This Week In and Around the Meeting House

March 4 - 10, 2019

The Activities Room renovation project is nearly complete. We had a great start to the project with the replacement of the floor last year, thank you to all who were involved in making the beautiful new floor happen! There were a few infrastructure projects that's that were completed, electrical/lighting, and the back door being replaced, before we could focus on the painting.

The next big step was to paint everything, walls, trim, and ceiling. But what colors?! In true UU style, starting back in November we had a committee who chose a committee, who presented their proposed colors to a committee. After the colors were voted on and chosen, the wall color was tested in varying areas and strengths, and voted on again! Bob Leman worked his magic and painted everything, great to have his energy back at the Meeting House!

Thanks to all involved in freshening up our Activities Room!

This Week's Sermon:

"Love & Fear"
Daniel Lawlor

A meditation on how we as Unitarian Universalists have an opportunity to embody Love in community. As both skeptics and optimists, our tradition calls us to balance both as we try to build communities of love- which can be easier said than done! Not too long ago, a focus on love changed the life of a congregation in an old neighborhood in San Francisco... and what it might mean for all of us UUs?

Music with Mollie Glazer

Religious Exploration with Leyah Jensen & Sherlly Morocoima
This Sunday in RE, we are all about discovering the beautiful and unexpected that can be brought forth when we get out of our own headspace. So join in some wild fun! As we begin our Justice "vision board" with colorful art made in Zen. You've never painted like THIS before!
