The Racial Justice Task Force is joining with Black Lives Matter-Btown to raise $3000 to buy local produce, products & goods to donate to the Crestmont community and local Black families in honor of Juneteenth. This date, June 19th, celebrates the date in 1865 that the last enslaved people in the US were emancipated. There are three ways that congregation members can contribute: (1) donate directly to BLM via their Venmo address, BLM-BTOWN, noting that the funds are to be used for the Juneteenth Drive; (2) Drop off any of the supplies listed below at the church (north Portico entrance) between now and June 19; or (3) Bring items from the list below to the People’s Market at Harmony School between 9 am and 1 pm on June 19. We may also need people to help with delivery and distribution. Please direct questions or suggestions to the Racial Justice Task Force chairs, Martha Oakley or Ruth Aydt.

This summer we are making plans to meet up at some wonderful outdoor community events - join us for concerts in Bryan Park and Switchyard Park and other fun Parks & Rec opportunities. Mark your calendar for these events and meet us there!

Explore Unitarian Universalism with us online, July 11 and 18, 2-4 pm. Use this link to register. These small group gatherings are a great opportunity to learn about the UU Principles, our ministers, the history of this church, all the ways to get involved here, and what it means to be a member of the church. Plan to attend both dates, since different material will be discussed in each session. We request completion of these sessions before becoming a member of the church. Everyone ages 14 to 100+ is welcome! Questions? Email connect(at)uubloomington.org or call (812)720-3688.
