Tuesday, January 2 | Drop-In Discussion:
Life-Changing Anecdotes from my Peace Corps Experience
After sharing two anecdotes from her Peace Corps experience that changed her worldview, Connie Valk will lead a discussion about how travel to other cultures may have influenced our worldviews. And we can discuss whether there are ways to connect with other cultures that don’t require world travel? Drop-in Discussions meet via Zoom on Tuesday nights 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!

Sunday, January 7 | In-Church Drop-In Discussion: Living in a Science Fictional World

The 2024 Service Auction Approaches!
The clock is ticking, and the 2024 Service Auction is coming! The big fundraising event is Sunday, February 4, 2024 after the church service, but NOW is the time to plan! Think about what you might like to donate to the auction—perhaps a dinner, service, or unique item. (Please remember that the auction is not the place for garage sale or Goodwill items). Donation forms (both hard copy and online) are available now, and there are lots of volunteer opportunities. Contact finance@uuroc.org for more information, or click on the button below!
