I was going to send out another notice that this week’s services will both be indoors, but it makes more sense to plan for all services to be indoors, with news flashes about when we can have an outdoor service. We will always provide patio seating, and extra visibility via a screen showing the speakers and musicians, … Continue reading Services assumed to be indoors while cold weather lasts

As you probably know, the CDC has recently changed its guidance for up-to-date vaccination. They now recommend that everyone 5 years and older receive the bivalent (Omicron) booster, which became available Sept. 2, 2022. 

Starting on Dec. 4th, proof of this latest booster will be required to enter indoor services. You can avoid the line on Dec. 4 by showing proof of your bivalent booster anytime in the upcoming weeks. You can show your vaccination card to the ushers at the door, or email a picture of your card to jeff@uucpa.org. 

Picture a child coming home after a hard day at school. They had a bad argument with a friend and they’re feeling angry and stuck.

The brisk fall weather continues, so we will once again have both services inside the Main Hall. As always, outdoor seating on the patio will also be available for those who prefer it, and the video screen will be set up there.  As far as we heard, last Sunday no one had to sit outside for lack … Continue reading Both services are indoors again this Sunday

I and the Welcoming Congregation Renewal Committee encourage you to mark the Transgender Day of Remembrance with us and Unitarian Universalists all over the world by attending UPLIFT’s service this Friday. See you there, Amy Photo by Ehimetalor Akhere Unuabona on Unsplash

The weather on Sunday is predicted to be as it has been all week: sunny, beautiful, and just a bit too cold for sitting still for an hour. So the 9:30 service, like the 11:00, will be held inside the Main Hall. As always, outdoor seating on the patio will also be available for those who prefer … Continue reading It’s chilly!
