“Poetry Sunday”

For those of you not familiar with this UUGSB tradition, we encourage everyone to bring a favorite poem (or two) to share. In the past our poems have included childhood favorites, love poems, haiku, and more. Have you written your own poem? We’d love to hear it! Too shy to read your favorite poem? No problem! We will have volunteer readers at the ready. Child participation is warmly encouraged.

“Nurturing, the UU Way”

Presented by UUGSB’s Sunday Service Committee. Mother’s Day is a day in which we acknowledge with gratitude the people who have nurtured us. Who do you nurture? Who nurtures you? Today we will explore the ways in which our denomination, congregation, and members nurture our society in an effort to create a world in which the inherent worth and dignity of every person is honored.

“Equal Opportunity in Housing”
