resisting. Come ready to share what brings you joy.

ANNOUNCEMENTS
The Youth Group
will meet at 4PM March 7th at Dave Watkins' house (22229 Royalwood
in Houghton 369-0734), to wander with KUUFers through the thorny thickets of
ethics, money and internet explorations. Anyone with internet connections
should bring along their device(s) -- laptop, phone, antenna ears, whatever.
ADULT EDUCATION.
Value Based Financial Practices. The last class in ethical economics will be
held at Dave Watkins' house at 4PM on March 7th. All are welcome -- but do
let Rev. Sydney know you are coming. Bring your laptop and expect to enjoy
the evening with teens, pizza and a large dog named Bear.
Sacred Scripture.
Sunday mornings at 9AM, Rev. Sydney will lead her course in "Sacred
Scripture" -- teachings which illuminate the religions of: Buddhism,
Hinduism, the people of
the Book (Judiasm, Islam and Christianity) and Sikhism.
Every Sunday in March (except the Forum Sunday 14) and the first Sunday of
April.
ONGOING…
COVENANT
GROUP meets on first Sundays at BHK.
Meditation: Every Friday at
noon we gather for meditation instruction and practice at the KUUF
Office (the E.L.
Wright Building
on 41 in Hancock adjacent to Pat's Foods mall). A short reading is
followed by a period of simple silent meditation.
Then we talk a bit, end by 12:50, and return to our
day refreshed. All are welcome!
On Potluck Sundays, if possible,
bring your own eating utensils to avoid using disposable ones. Wash them at
home with your next meal’s dishes. If you choose to use the reusable plastic
dishes provided by the Fellowship, please wash them yourself in the kitchen
to reduce the dish washing chore of the hospitality team.
