Church Storage, Organization, and Cleanup
We are taking stock of our many stored items scattered throughout our church building and making efforts to identify, organize, and clear out spaces for new and exciting staff and programming. If you or your committee or group has items stored in the church, please contact conglife@uuroc.org so we may work with you on this housekeeping project. We are striving to keep essentials safely stored and organized, being respectful of our congregation’s contributions, while also donating or discarding accumulated items that no longer serve us. This is also a good time to review your coffee mugs in the lounge, committees’ needs going forward, and mailboxes and materials under the mailbox table in the Volunteer Office!
Tuesday, August 4 | Drop-In Discussion: The Muslim Jesus
Few Christians and humanists realize that Jesus has an honored position in the Koran in many ways equal to and in some ways superior to Mohammed himself. Muslims believe that Jesus was born of a virgin, worked miracles and ascended into Heaven, and that he will return in the End Times. Phil Ebersole will do a presentation and lead a discussion of Jesus in Islam and the commonalities between Christianity and Islam. We meet via Zoom on Tuesdays from 6:30-7:30pm. Look on the First Universalist homepage for details and a link, or click the Zoom meeting link in this blurb title!
