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
Join us Sunday (2 October 2011) at 11:00 AM worship service for our annual Blessing of the Animals.
This is the one time each year when our members and friends are invited to bring their animal companions into the sanctuary for a service in celebration of our shared home in the interdependent web of all life. This is also a time to honor the memory of the pets who have gone on before us.

The Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) holds its 50th General Assembly this week in Charlotte NC.
General Assembly (GA) is the way that our faith does business – bringing together the distinctive character of our individual congregations through an open and democratic process.
UU World will provide extensive daily coverage of the UUA’s annual convention and business assembly 22-26 June 2011 as well as meetings of the UUA Board of Trustees on 21, 22, and 27 June 2011.
Visit the UUA GA Blog for the latest reports and daily news summaries, or subscribe to our General Assembly feed.
Live video of business plenaries and major events will be available on UUA’s General Assembly 2011 page and on a dedicated channel at Livestream.
Starting on Thursday, 23 June 2011, UU World will also publish a comprehensive guide to our GA coverage, which will be updated daily. Highlights of UU World’s coverage will be publicized on their Facebook and Twitter pages.
The church office has phone and internet service (including email) again.
The phone company was able to repair the phone line damage caused by the road construction crew on Ellerbe Road.

The following information is forwarded from Susan Caldwell (All Souls Director of Religious Education):
If you need to reach someone on the church staff today, you may call me at 318-465-3427. We are also checking the voice mail at the church, so if you left a message, we promise to return your call as soon as possible. A volunteer is in the office today until 2:00 p.m.
We apologize for any inconvenience, and we are trying to get our service restored as soon as possible. As has happened twice already since the road construction began, it is more than likely that the road crews have cut the phone lines again.
