Adult Religious Education — 16 September 2018
Please join us on Sunday (16 September 2018) at 9:15 AM for our adult religious education class.
This fall, we’re excited to introduce Faith Forward — a multi-part adult religious education series that will not only introduce visitors and new members to our faith but will also help those who’ve been here awhile to deepen their faith journeys.
We begin UU History 101 with a look at two of our Unitarian forebears — the 16th Century Spanish heretic Michael Servetus and the early 19th century American preacher and theologian William Ellery Channing.
Child care will be provided — See you then.

Give Away the Plate for September 2019
We have changed the way we do our Give Away the Plate donations each month.
Instead of taking up just one collection per month, we are giving half of our non-pledge income each week to one organization for the entire month.
This month’s Give Away the Plate is going to Northern and Central Louisiana Interfaith to help pay the dues we have pledged as a member organization.
Interfaith has been a highly effective partnership of congregations and other organizations working together to create real change in our community and throughout our state as an affiliate of Together Louisiana and the Industrial Areas Foundation.
