This Sunday, we came together for a cozy holiday service at which various members shared holiday messages. As a centerpiece of the service, we were asked to reflect on the question, "What Gifts do you Bring?" and what that question meant to us. Those present wrote their thoughts on gift tags and had a chance to share them from the mic and hang their tags on our holiday tree. Many and varied gifts emerged, such as: Caring and Support, Peace, the Wisdom of past mistakes and experience, Engagement and Joy, Patience, Listening, Dedication, Hope, Connection, and the simple and vital Enjoyment of each other's company. We hope that we are able to share gifts like this with our Fellowship and our community during the winter Holidays and throughout the year!

UUFJC News and Events this week:
Our Members and Friends Directory has been updated. Paper copies are available at the Fellowship near the phones, and paper and electronic copies are available on request from the Administrator ([email protected]). The directory is a voluntary resource to make your contact information available to other members and friends; remember that you can contact the Administrator to update or add (or remove) your directory information at any time.
We need someone to step forward and coordinate our Salvation Army meals. The coordinator will have a lot of help learning the ropes and providing the food. If we don't have a coordinator by the end of this year, we will probably have to give up this longtime community service of our Fellowship. If you are willing to step forward, please contact Roberta Dunkel. (Note, we are not serving at the Salvation Army this month due to the holidays.)
This Thursday, December 27th, our building is reserved by a community group starting at 6:30 pm. Please allow privacy.
The Soul Matters Small Group is scheduled to meet next Sunday, December 30th from 2-4 pm. To participate in the group, please contact Jim Davis.
