Bring a dish to share (something green or Irish would be great but this is not required).

Stay for the meeting and fellowship.  If you haven’t read the Buildings and Grounds Erosion Engineering Report before the meeting, you may want to do so.  You can find the report on the All Souls website here (requires Adobe Acrobat or other PDF reader software).

17 February 2013 Worship Service

Please join us on Sunday (17 February 2013) at 11:00 AM for “If We Agree in Love … ” where we will celebrate 30 Days of Love and the wisdom found in our third source.

Using the words of Hosea Ballou as our guide, we celebrate the last day of the Unitarian Universalist Association’s 30 Days of Love campaign by exploring the ways our Universalist heritage has led us to an appreciation of the wisdom of many faiths that teaches us to stand for love in the world.

Join us immediately following the service for a Visioning Potluck where we will share food and conversation about the future of our church.

Visioning Potluck (17 February 2013)

Please join us this Sunday (17 February 2013) after the 11:00 AM worship service for a Visioning Potluck.

  • Sit in groups of 8 -10.
  • Eat food that you and others have brought to share.
  • Talk about our church and what you would like to see us be and do as a congregation in the coming years.

Children and youth will be welcome to join us for lunch, and for the conversation as their interests lead them.  They are our future after all.  Child care will also be available.
