Tuesday, July 7 | Drop-In Discussion: Iran - How Did We Get Here?
The US war with Iran has dominated headlines this year, has had far-reaching impacts around the globe, and is unlikely to be fully resolved in short order. How did we get here? We'll present a quick overview on the history of Iran, including some key moments since 1900. Together we'll then discuss current challenges and barriers and what we might foresee in the coming years, both realistically and idealistically. Justin Wilson will host and facilitate the discussion. 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!

Sunday, July 12 | LGBTQIA+ Social Action Circle Meeting
The LGBTQIA+ social justice circle is having its meeting once again! Both queer and ally individuals alike are invited to attend our meeting, as we plan on collaborating to make our congregation and Rochester even more fabulous! Talk to Willow, or a committee member if you want to help! Feel free to grab a snack from the coffee hour and head upstairs to the Gratitude Room (#22) after service! We hope to see you there!
Summer Adventure Program begins!
Starting in July, we begin our Summer Adventure Program (SAP) for children and families of all ages. Children will get to experience spiritual enrichment in the season of growth through a hybrid blend of weekly activities that can be done in-person during children's worship or at home. For 8 weeks, our ‘SAPlings’ will grow while practicing our Unitarian Universalist values aligned with this year’s theme: Hope. Check out the bulletin board in the second-floor hallway for copies of each week’s activities. Pick up a copy for any week or the whole summer, if your family is traveling or otherwise will not be in attendance at Sunday worship. Activities include spiritual quotes from our hymnals and additional resources or enrichment options in the community. Children will even receive their own miniature chalice to decorate! See Justin (Congregational Life Coordinator, conglife@uuroc.org) for more details.
