The Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion team invites you in exploring “Mountains Beyond Mountains” written by the award-winning literary journalist Tracy Kidder about the life and work of Dr. Paul Farmer. This is a not-to-be-missed story, especially for us today.
Join the conversation 7:15 PM, Monday, April 14th when we’ll share our reading experiences and responses. Contact Elona Meyer using the Breeze form below for more details and the Zoom link.
Community Services Consortium provides a variety of services for those in need. Our April Sunday Outreach Offerings will be dedicated to CSC’s Weatherization Program which reduces carbon emissions, methane leaks, and heating costs. Basic energy efficiency upgrades such as insulation, weatherstripping, and heating system safety checks are provided at no cost to low income households in Linn, Benton, and Lincoln counties.

Come join the Greeter Team and welcome people to the UUFC by saying “mucho gusto” with enthusiasm and zest!
It is our pleasure to meet you and help you navigate your way into the building and into our hearts. We encourage you to sign up for the announcement mailing list and to become more fully connected.
Speak to anyone at the Greeters’ desk for more information.
Come to the LEGATO potluck and lend your voices to table talk about justice in our society. You might share song titles the choir and band could include in its repetoire. The potluck is Wednesday April 9 at 5:45 PM. Come early if you can help set up tables.
Bring a dish to share (please identify all ingredients).
This is a Connect Up Event with the purpose of building community within the UUFC congregation.
Please join the Partner Church Team on Sunday, April 13 at 12:15 PM in the Social Hall, north end. We will focus on the June 8th service with Rev. Mwibutsa Ndagijimana, the September Pilgrimage to Transylvania, and on articulating a vision for the future.
At the UUFC, we nurture our spirits and put our faith into action through social justice work in our communities and the wider world. Partner Church Team members are proud of our many decades of social action, yet so much remains to be done. In the hope of making our efforts simple, transparent and accessible, we are moving our team meetings back to the Fellowship Hall.
For more information, contact PCT lead Heather E. using this link.
Have you submitted a photo of yourself to the Breeze directory? The Membership Team will set up a photo booth after the April 6 service in the Sanctuary and take photos of anyone who wants one for their Breeze profile.
Having a photo attached to your Breeze profile helps others in the Fellowship learn who you are and connect your name to your face.

In honor of Hanuman Jayanti, our Community Kirtan on Friday, April 11 will feature local kirtan artists Rainbow and Dhara Rose with a program celebrating the Hindu deity Hanuman, who represents courage, strength and self-discipline. The session will also include breath work and a guided meditation if time permits. We hope you’ll join us at 7-8:30 PM in the Sanctuary.
The Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion team invites you to join us in phoning, emailing, and/or writing our Representatives and Senators to enlist their support for Rumeysa Ozturk (and others!), an immigrant who was detained with complete disregard for her rights. It will be a glaring omission in our fight for justice if we allow those wrongfully detained to “disappear” from our consciousness! Our representatives need to hear from us. Need more information? Have questions? Contact Elona Meyer using this link.
You can find the contact info for your members of Congress here: https://www.congress.gov/members/find-your-member.
This Sunday, April 6, please join in celebrating – with cake after service – members and friends with birthdays in April, May, & June. This is also an opportunity to let us know if you have a April – June birthday.
The Committee on Ministry invites all to our next “Transitions Talk” on April 6. We’ll touch base on as many questions as come up, such as “How are you taking care of yourself in these challenging times? How are you feeling about this ministerial transition? What do you need to know or understand better? How do we say goodbye – both minister and congregation members – as well as we can? What will help us stay strong and vital in our ministries during the transition time?
11:45 AM, in the Sanctuary.
