All New Multigenerational Service Format
Our Thanksgiving service this Sunday will be multigenerational- engaging for people of all ages. It will be highly participatory. Multiple mediums will be used to revel together in the theme of gratitude. Our hope is that each household will come away with ideas and resources for practicing gratitude in daily life. If you have kids, you are encouraged to print out this activity booklet, to be enjoyed during or outside of worship: Thanksgiving Service Activity Pages.
UUCM Kids Sleep Outside for IOCP
Six kids and two adults are sleeping outside in shelters, tents or cars this Saturday to raise money and awareness for IOCP (Interfaith Outreach and Community Partners), serving under-resourced people in our area. Contact Jennifer if you would like to sponsor an individual child – donations will be doubled through November 19! – or the group as a whole, with a donation. And watch for a message from the Sleep Out participants in worship this Sunday.
Parent Circle each Wednesday, 8:15-9:15pm
Several fantastic parents have been tuning in when they can, Wednesday evenings, for Parent Circle. We listen to and encourage each other. We laugh and rant and learn. Join in whenever it works for you- we’d love to see ya! We use the RE Family Chapel Zoom link printed in every Friday Update. Contact Jennifer with any questions (dre@uucmtka.org).
