Stewardship Committee Set to Plan Pledge Drive, Time and Talent Auction: Members Needed!
The Stewardship Committee is our committee tasked with seeing to the short and long-term financial well-being of our congregation. We're gearing up to plan this year's annual pledge drive, which takes place in March, as well as our annual Time and Talent Auction---a very fun way to raise funds using our own gifts and resources--which currently has no date set. You don't need to be a financial whiz to be on this committee, just someone with a commitment to our congregation. If you would like to know more, please contact either Naomi Davis, Karen Elliott, or David Dodd.
A meeting is set for Wednesday, January 18 at 8 p.m.---location TBA, and we'll meet on the third Wednesday of each month if that works for most committee members.

Got Opinions?
If you are a UU then chances are you do, and the Worship Committee wants to hear them! Our services are planned with the needs of this community in mind. If there is a service you particularly liked, a subject you want to see addressed, or even some constructive criticism you're itching to give; then stop by the back UU table one Sunday and take advantage of the worship suggestion box to pass your thoughts along to the folks in charge of planning UUP services.
