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
Please join us on Sunday (13 August 2023) for our adult religious education class at 9:00 AM.
Our adult religious education class is now a dual-platform class — meeting in person in the church social hall and also on Zoom.
Since it’s our first time for us to meet together after a 3 week break, we will check in and take some time to talk about possibilities for the group going forward.
Please join us for our end of summer swim party for all ages on Sunday (13 August 2023) from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM.
This swim party will happen at the home of Kathy Osuch and Mike Roberts.
Join us on Sunday afternoon — and please note the different time for this year’s swim party.
Instead of doing this right after church as we have done in the past, we are starting at 3:00 PM in hopes of avoiding the very hottest part of these unusually hot summer days.
This will give you a chance to grab lunch at the potluck and still have time to go home and grab your swimsuit.
We will have snacks and drinks at the pool. Bring your kids — kids, bring your parents — and join us for an afternoon of multi-generational fun.
Address and directions to Kathy and Mike’s will be furnished at church on the day of the event and also through the All Souls Caring Connection Facebook Group.
All Souls is hosting an Alternatives to Violence Project (AVP) Basic Workshop with facilitators Kathy Osuch, Susan Yellott, and Bob Jordan.
Here are the dates / times for this workshop:
This is an experiential workshop designed to change the way we deal with conflict and will be three full days of moving through the pillars of AVP:
This workshop is free and open to the public although donations to the church will be graciously accepted.

During the summer, our children and youth participate in various fun artistic and creative activities.
On this Sunday (6 August 2023), our children and youth will create cards of support for Community Unitarian Universalist Church of Plano TX with Ash McLain and Noah Wagstatff.
Two weeks ago this Sunday, the church building of Community Unitarian Universalist Church was firebombed in the very early hours of the morning.
No one was there at the time so no one was physically hurt. First responders arrived quickly thanks to the church alarm system as well as a motorist passing by who called in the fire. There was damage to the front doors and entryway and the congregation held services that same Sunday morning.
They are taking care of their own presently and have said that they appreciate the cards, letters, and expressions of support that have come in from Unitarian Universalists and others all over the country.
Come check out this artistic activity after the worship service.

During the summer, our children and youth participate in various fun artistic and creative activities.
On this Sunday (30 July 2023), our children and youth will collect natural items on a brief walk outdoors, then use them to make creative bleach print t-shirts with Ash McLain.
Children and youth who missed this last week will have another chance to make their own nature print t-shirt.
Kids should bring a black or dark colored t-shirt for best effect. We will have a few extra shirts on hand but bringing their own shirt insures that they will get the size and style they want.
Come check out this artistic activity after the worship service.
