Got some WBUUC memorabilia? Bring to church!

Dig in your junk drawer, your jewelry box, or wherever your treasure trove is, because the 70th Anniversary Committee would like your memorabilia for our upcoming history display at church. Pins, posters, ephemera, magnets, whatever! (We even have Zumba pants in memory of a beloved cook!) Items can be brought to the table by the history bulletin board in the Social Hall on Sundays or to the front office during the week. Please tag your item so it can be reunited with you later. Thank you!

4x4 Dinner Dates: Oct. 9, 10, 11 OR Nov. 6, 7, 8.

This fall, we're launching 4x4 Dinners: small gatherings that build connection. Four tenured members will host four newer members for an evening of conversation. Keep it simple — just a meal in someone's home. The focus is getting to know each other. Registrations will be collected until Sep. 13. Dinner groups of 8 will be created based on your responses. Hosts and guests will be informed about which groups they are in by Sep. 20.
