If you have any clocks that don’t reset themselves for Daylight Savings Time, don’t forget to reset them before you go to sleep tonight.
Daylight Savings Times officially goes into effect at 2:00 AM on Sunday, 11 March 2012 (but we won’t alert the authorities if you reset your clocks early).
You don’t want to miss tomorrow’s service featuring Loren Demerath in the pulpit and music from the All Souls Choir!
The regular monthly Building and Grounds work day will be Saturday, 17 March 2012, instead of the regular second Saturday date of the month.

This Sunday (26 February 2012) at 11:00 AM, Rev. Barbara Jarrell will be in the pulpit and the All Souls Choir will sing.
Stay after the service for the Congregational Meeting. Child care will be provided for worship and the meeting.

This Sunday (5 February 2012) immediately after our worship service, please join us for this fundraiser presented by our children.
The 2nd – 5th Grade Class has been learning about the tradition of service in many of the world’s religions and our own Unitarian Universalist tradition. They have decided to raise money for one cause close to home and one cause helping people in the wider world.
They will donate half their proceeds to Heifer International and the other half to the Erosion Abatement Project here at All Souls.
The sale will continue for the next two Sundays — culminating with the intergenerational worship service on 19 February 2012.
This is a Winter Retreat with Singer/Songwriter Peter Mayer. It’s happening from Friday, 10 February 2012 to Sunday, 12 February 2012.
