Saturday, May 2 | Spring Work Day!
Our annual Spring Work Day is Saturday, May 2, 9am to noon! We'll get the church and grounds ready for warmer weather and do some minor repairs and some spring cleaning. Please join us if you can. There will be tasks for all skills and talents, and the opportunity to mingle with fellow members and friends.
Sunday, May 3 | In-Person Drop-In Discussion: The Humanist Manifesto of 1933
Is it possible to be religious without believing in God? Signers of the Humanist Manifesto of 1933 believed so. The 34 signers included 15 Unitarian ministers and one Universalist. What did they believe? Were they right? What was their legacy? Phil Ebersole will present and facilitate. In-Person Drop-in Discussions meet at 9:15am in the Chalice Room and will continue on the first Sunday of the month. All are welcome!
May 3 and May 7 | Newcomers Circles
Are you interested in learning more about our faith or becoming a member? Our Congregational Life Coordinator, Justin Wilson, and Rev. Eileen will host a discussion session after the service on Sunday, May 3, in her office, and via Zoom on Thursday, May 7 at 6:30pm (link at uuroc.org). This brief discussion is designed for visitors or newcomers who are looking for a general introduction to help decide if First Universalist Church would be a good match for them. We hope to see you there!
Tuesday, May 5 | Fellowship Club
We invite you all to our newest gathering! No need to RSVP. No expectation to show up every time. No pressure to explain if you are late or leave early. You are always welcome. Come as you are.
