We gather,
our different paths entwined,
to deepen our spiritual lives:
nourishing connection,
learning from each other,
caring for each other,
tending to our world.
Join the Buildings, Grounds, and Garden team to improve UUCPA on this Saturday Morning!
Last month, we did a great job cutting back plants along the exit drive,
fixing the slamming door in the main hall (!!), and clearing off the
office roof.
This month there are:

o If dry, there is painting on bench edges in the patio.
o A little more trimming along the exit drive.
o Removing 2 holly oak trees along the creekside, and weeding.
And more! Questions: Contact Robert Neff for questions about the workday.
