Thank you everyone for your support in putting together my Eagle Scout project, the UUCM Native Plant Gardens. This project was successful because of the support I received from the congregation. I am happy with how it turned out and hope you will be to. This is the link to the list of plants that went into the garden. We are hoping to have kids and adults alike be able to identify the plants in the plants garden with this list. The goal is to learn more about the connection between the plants and the pollinators that rely on them.

Thank you,
Erik Williams-Heim

(Archive) We are pleased to share that UUCM reopened to in person worship and RE as of last Sunday. We will be building on our current safety practices by providing N95/KN95 masks for all RE classrooms and worship attendees who do not have their own. Thank you for your continued support and flexibility as we navigate this together as a safe, inclusive, and informed community.

The UUCM Board of Trustees and Rev. Lisa Friedman continue to strongly recommend the COVID-19 vaccine and booster for everyone that is eligible. (Please see the Community Section for financial incentives currently available in Minnesota.) This is the most important action we can all take for the safety of our community, especially our youngest children, and to address the strain on our health care system.

Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or if we can be of support in any way.
