| | Spring Stewardship Drive – Come for a "Meet the Moment" Meal | | |
We are all caretakers of this special community. Please attend a delicious church dinner on Wednesday, 3/25, 5:30-pm, or lunch on Sunday, 3/29,12:30-2pm. These gatherings are designed to get to know others and hear what has brought us to WBUUC – whether recently or years ago. Out of shared conversations curated by our Stewardship Committee you’ll discover common threads within our “wide theological tent” and be reminded of your important role as a steward of the church. “Meet the Moment” Community-Building Meals will offer guided table peer-to-peer conversations. This is the time of year when we especially need to show up. Hope to see you there!
Let us know when you plan to attend! An RSVP is greatly appreciated (though not required) as it helps our cook teams prepare: RSVP for a "Meet the Moment" Meal
