The Greatest of These is a Sense of Humor

11/11/2013

 
Yesterday we had as our guest Father George Kramer, giving us his thoughts on the accession of Pope Francis and the hopeful developments he represents for the Catholic church.  All of us have our reasons to attend Unitarian Services instead of Catholic Mass on Sunday mornings, but seeing the enthusiasm and laughter Father George brought to the room was an inspiring moment of common ground!

News and Events:

Starting yesterday and continuing through next Sunday, UUFJC is holding a book fair!  Come browse the tables in the Family Room and Library for great books on a variety of subjects, from children's books to social justice to religious resources.  (If you made a special order, it's being kept separately in the office).  Talk to Kath Connor for more information.

We also have new collection plates that were given to us by Don Love.  They came from Rwanda and Don bought them in an auction to benefit the Missouri Association for Social Welfare.  Thank you, Don, they're beautiful!

We need an Adult Forum Leader for December 29th.  Contact Laura Gilkey if you can help.

Submissions for the December Newsletter and Print Calendar are due by the end of services next Sunday, November 17th.  You can e-mail items to me or put them in the Administrator/Newsletter mailbox in the office at the Fellowship.

Monday Zumba is cancelled.  Our teacher, Johnny Mitchell-Reed, is moving from the Jefferson City area.  We're sorry to lose him, but we wish him the best!

This Monday evening, November 11th at 6:30, the Worship Service Committee meets at UUFJC.  Everyone is welcome to attend and offer ideas for upcoming services.

Tuesday, November 12th at 4 pm, the Department of Peacebuilding meets at Missouri River Regional Library.  Contact Betty Cooper.

Later on Tuesday, at 5:30 pm, Room 38 Restaurant and Lounge in Columbia hosts "Cocktails for a Cause" to benefit planned parenthood.  $10 for tickets or at the door.  Contact Sue Gibson.

Also Tuesday evening in Columbia, Mid-Missouri Peaceworks holds a Confronting Climate Change Town Hall.  For information, call 573-875-0539.

Wednesday, November 13th at 6 pm, the UUFJC Board meets at the Fellowship.  All are welcome to attend.
