The Sound of the Genuine
This Sunday will be inspired by Howard Thurman's commencement address to Spelman College. Why is it important to follow the work that calls you? We will be opening our hearts to authenticity and action to maintain hope. Being hopeful and focused on the call to build a beloved community during times of fear and hate requires bravery and practice. Let's join the generations in our commitment to nonviolent action and loving the world with our sounds of the genuine.

Hosts Needed for Climate Revival March 1and 2!
Our church is hosting a two-day revival focused on climate justice and policies on March 1 and 2. It is customary to offer housing to UUs traveling to attend.
Might you be able to serve as a host on Friday and/or Saturday night ( February 28th and March 1st )? If so, please let Nicky Ozbek know (nickyozbek@gmail.com ). This is a great way to help a fellow UU and to get involved in ‘good trouble, to quote John Lewis.

4 Sundays in March – a Serial Silent Auction
|
For the first time at UUCC, Each Sunday (March 9-30) will feature an opportunity for you to find your passion and support the church economically. We think balancing our budget is as important as reusing, repurposing, reimaging, You will notice boxes appearing for Book donations and Spring Treasures in the weeks ahead . Not only will you be able to bid on select gifted items on March Sundays, but those items needing new homes, those without bid sheets, will be sold based on what you are willing to pay. So, bring in the books and donated items during February. Let Judy Gallagher (judygallagher@uucc.org) or Nicky Ozbek (nickyozbek@gmail.com) know if you are planning on creating an auction gift or baking food or…..

March 9 Books Finding New Homes- books not purchased will be taken to McKay’s after church. Donate books in the book box!

On January 20, President Trump issued an executive order suspending all refugee resettlement programs including federal monetary support for refugees already here. Bridge needs to raise $23,000 for March alone to cover the cost of rent, utilities, food, and transportation for the most recent refugees. If you can, please donate using the QR Code below. Even a small amount helps.
