All Souls Unitarian Universalist Church of Shreveport, Louisiana
A home for Unitarian Universalism and liberal religion in Shreveport, Bossier City, and Northwest Louisiana since 1950
Due to our media sale fundraiser and potluck lunch today, we are not having our 9:15 AM adult religious education class today.
Sleep in a little longer today and then come at 10:00 AM to shop the media sale before the service.
Please pass the word along to any regulars who may not always check their email.
Please join us on Saturday (13 October 2018) from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM for our monthly building and grounds work day.
Most of the work of maintaining our spiritual home is done by the members and friends of All Souls.
We have tasks for all ages and abilities — indoors and out.
One of the best ways to build community with your All Souls friends is to work side by side sprucing up our church home.
Come for the whole time or just for a little while — or if you can’t stay, consider dropping off some snacks for the crew.
We appreciate any and all efforts to help — hope to see you Saturday!
Our “Give Away the Plate” recipient for October 2018 is the Noel United Methodist Church Food Pantry.
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 recipient is Noel United Methodist Church Food Pantry. Here is a description from their website:
What: Noel has the largest food pantry in Northwest Louisiana giving out over 10,000 bags of food every year to people in need in Caddo Parish. The Food Pantry is operated by Director Susan Foster and over 100 volunteers from Noel and various churches of all denominations, including our own JoDel Adkins.
Other services offered include “Start-up” Kits for those who have experienced a recent house fire.When: Monday-Thursday from 10:00 AM-2:00 PM.
Where: The Food Pantry is located at Noel United Methodist Church, 520 Herndon Street, Shreveport LA 71101.
Info: Contact Director Susan Foster at 318-424-0434 or sfoster@noelumc.org.

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.
