Welcome to Sunday Worship!

Ready for a friendly task? Sign up to be a Greeter at the Emerson Room doors on Sunday morning. It's a happy job! Look for the sign-up sheet on the Church Life bulletin board in the Lobby. I'll send you a reminder the week before you're on duty. Joan Jacobs
Ushers: Elaine Cusker, Ria and Hinni Martens and Bob Wack will join Dennis Bihl again this year as ushers on Sunday mornings. We'll be putting the inserts into the Order of Service, handing them out to you as you enter the Chapel, sharing the microphone at "Joys and Sorrows" and passing the plate at the collection. As if that wasn't enough to keep us busy, we also count and record attendance and contributions. We are often assisted by unsuspecting volunteers who we corral as they walk in the door! Dennis Bihl
The Art Wall Please share your creative endeavors with the U.U. congregation by displaying them on or in front of the Art Wall. Simply sign up on the sheet next to the Art Wall. If you have any questions or would like some assistance in displaying your masterpieces, please contact Gloria Masters.

ADULT CHOIR UUCA choir rehearsal continues at 7:15 pm on Thursdays from September through June. We meet in the choir room (last room on the right in the RE wing) and in the chapel for Sunday rehearsals beginning at 9:15 am.
Being an equal opportunity choir, we welcome all interested parties, and invite newcomers to try us out! Our current members are supportive and friendly. Please feel free to come to the first meeting in the choir room and we'll set you up.
Let's share music! We’ll be performing a wide variety of musical styles, not only in our anthems, but while continuing to introduce many selections to the congregation from the hymnal supplement called Singing the Journey. - Marie Zak, Music Director
Here's a very important way that you can contribute to our beloved community -- Sign up to Help with Sunday Coffee. Commitment during the church year (September to June) is 9:45 - 10:30 and 11:30 - 12:30. You won't miss the service or having time to chat during coffee hour. You will be assisiting one coffee committee member who will over see things. The coffee committee members are Margot Shoemaker, Marie Evans, Wendy Lettieri, Bob Park, Peg O'Shaughnessy, and Angela Knisley.
Welcoming Circle: Do you want to help out, but never seem to be able to get to church early enough to be a greeter or coffee hour host? Your Membership Committee is looking for a few friendly people to help meet & greet newcomers after the service. Please see Joann Shafer to volunteer.
Welcoming People with Disabilities Learn about promoting equality and access for UU's with disabilities. Visit the website – www.equualaccess.org.
Transportation: There are several people we know of, and this list will probably grow, that need rides to church on Sundays and perhaps to other church activities. We would like to form a list of people who are able to pick up someone occasionally.
If our list of drivers is big enough, no one will have to worry about finding an alternate when they are not available. Jean Hutchinson is willing to take names of drivers and riders and to keep the list up dated. Please call her if you can help!!
Our Sunday church services are 10:30am.
You can see the topics & other activities listed in our monthly calendar. Childcare is provided on Sundays as well as religious education for youth.
