Has YOUR voice been heard?

Stewardship Sunday is here!!

Have you returned your pledge card... your "piece of the pie?"  If so, thank you!  Pledges are by far the largest piece of our income "pie chart"- in fact, they are the reason we can operate at all! So be sure to return your pledge card to church TODAY- and join us this Sunday for a few Stewardship surprises, and a piece of real pie to celebrate our shared commitment.  Let Your Voice be Heard!

Train for RAIHN*

Four times a year, temporarily homeless families come to stay at First Universalist for a week. We provide for them a safe place to stay and tasty meals. 

If you'd like to join the volunteers who make this happen, consider attending the next training session at Christ Episcopal Church, 141 East Ave., Rochester on Thursday, April 16th, from 6:30-8:30 PM. The session will cover how RAIHN works, why it's needed, who are the families we serve, and what you need to know to volunteer.

Questions? Ask Sarah Singal (261-3800), Marti Eggers (385-4342), or Christine DeGolyer (461-3616) or check www.raihn.org
