Please join us on Sunday (14 February 2016) at 11:00 AM for “World Community Begins at Home” — an all-ages worship service presented by the children, youth, and adults of All Souls.

Living into our Sixth Principle — “the goal of world community with peace, liberty and justice for all” — requires building relationships, talking to each other, and really listening.

Drawing from our Third Source is a way to help us accomplish that and also a way of strengthening our own Unitarian Universalist faith.

The Social Hall will be transformed into an Italian bistro and several of our members will provide an Italian feast complete with various pasta dishes, salads, sides and desserts.  The cost is your worthy donation.

Do you have an Italian specialty you’d like to contribute to the menu?  Email Amanda Lawrence or call or text her at 318-402-3314.
