Calling all hymnals home!
Now that there's only one Sunday service, we need to inventory the hymnals and determine whether additional copies need to be purchased. If you have a hymnal at home, please return it to the hymnal shelves as soon as possible.
If you'd like to have a hymnal at home, you can purchase a copy from the UUA Bookstore.
