August is Make A Will Month. Fewer than one quarter of American adults have a will. If you are among the majority who have not gotten around to writing or updating your will, this is the event for you. Join us Wednesday, August 12, 2:30 pm in the KUUF Sanctuary for Estate Planning.

This Sunday, as you shop the Farmers’ Market for delicious produce, check out the excess kitchen and Lost and Found items displayed on the breezeway.
If you see a pot or bowl or plate or knife that is yours, please take it home!
If you see an item that you want, take that home too!

What do Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr., Nelson Mandela, Mother Teresa, Howard Thurman, Rosa Parks, John Lewis, Thich Nhat Hanh and other great spiritual activist leaders have in common?  They were “Universe Disturbers” in the best sense.  Living in challenging times, these activists sustained and inspired others by their spiritual practices to work for justice, inclusion, equality and freedom.  This message offers seven simple yet surprisingly effective spiritual practices they used with some self care tips accessible to all who advocate, hope and pray for a better world.

This week we focus on our 3S’s by taste testing fair trade chocolates, taking part in a chocolate meditation, and play nature connected games.

The harvest is upon us! Are you celebrating the season? Do you feel close to the abundant Earth? Want to talk about Pagan and Earth-centered spirituality? Meet, mingle, and make merry at this gathering!

Are you new to KUUF and wonder what Unitarian Universalism is all about? Do you want to know more about this Fellowship? Do you want to know how and when to become a member and what that means for you? If you have questions about KUUF, this is the time and place to ask them!

Join us on Friday, August 21, from 5:00–7:00 p.m. for an evening of outdoor fun and games!

Our guest speaker on August 23 will be our own KUUF Choir Director, Alena Hemingway. She has been a part of KUUF since she was 8 years old. She considers herself a lifelong UU. She feels very fortunate for this place and the people who have shaped her life in such beautiful ways.

She will be speaking on the topic:  Why Do We Write Songs? and will use our new UU on-line hymnal, Sing Out Loud  as a source.  Throughout the service we will introduce you to the new on-line hymnal, and UUAs vision for it. We will be using this source more often starting in September.
