UUs Serve is still in need of a few volunteers to help serve on April 27. This will also be a wonderful opportunity to see the new space The Shalom Project has moved into and to continue our shared ministry of nourishment and welcome.

If you have the time and capacity, please sign up to serve the Flourish meals on 3/17 and 4/27. The guests at Flourish truly appreciate the meals we prepare and the care we bring.

Contact Mignon for more information.

Thank you to the Sunday volunteers who joined one of the groups that makes our services run more smoothly!

It’s a new year, and we need a few more volunteers. With more people, no one has to serve too often, and it’s a wonderful way to make new connections. We’ll train you!

Check out the list below and contact our group leaders to try something new in the new year!

  • Greeters: Welcome members and visitors to the morning services as they enter the Fellowship. Email Susan at greeters@uufws.org.
  • Kitchen Crew: Make coffee and help with setup/cleanup during coffee hour. Email Pat at kitchencrew@uufws.org.
  • Nursery Assistants: Provide a safe, nurturing environment for infants and toddlers. Email pam@uufws.org.
  • Offering Counters: During 2nd service. CLICK HERE to learn more and sign up.
  • Service Slide Creators: Some experience with Google Slides, Power Point or Canva is required. Email Jack at slides@uufws.org.
  • Tech Team: Multiple roles for audio and video broadcast skills. Email Jack at techteam@uufws.org.
  • Ushers: Hand out bulletins, find seats, pass offering baskets, and more! Email Nancy and Candy at ushers@uufws.org.
  • Watchful Shepherds: Monitor building access and watch for anything that could disrupt services. Email Skip at watchfulshepherds@uufws.org.

For over three years, Mary Rouse and Bob Habermann have been monitoring the recycling at our facility for compliance with local requirements so that items can be recycled. (Most weeks there are items in the bins that are not recyclable locally or are food-contaminated!) They would love to train others so that the recycling can be placed outside more frequently. Training would take about 15 minutes. Please contact Mary for more information.

The kitchen crew is seriously understaffed. We need at least two people to make coffee on Sundays mornings and serve refreshments for our 10:00 am Coffee Hour. On the job training will be provided. If you can commit to an occasional Sunday and are willing to learn we’d love to have you on our team.

Please contact Patricia Bartholomew at kitchencrew@uufws.org or text her. Better yet, pop in the kitchen between 9:15-11:00 am, look around and ask lots of questions.

Do you have a favorite nearby business or two (or more!)? 

The Auction is hoping to receive many gift cards/certificates, items, discounts, etc., from local businesses as we have in the past. The best way to make that happen is person-to-person contact. If you can help, even a little bit, please contact Mary Rouse. She has signed UUFWS letters which highlight our social justice work in the community, from which you can both draw for your visit, and then leave with the business, plus official receipts should you receive something during your visit. 

She will be tracking where the Ambassadors want to go, so no business will be solicited twice. All you have to do is contact Mary and let her know which businesses you would like to visit, and she will pass on the letters and receipts. And there is a list being generated which includes all the previous generous businesses, which might inspire your consideration. We can start this endeavor in about a week, and hopefully conclude by mid-September.
