The Beacon – Our Fellowship Newsletter

“Forgive and forget” is a commonly used phrase in today’s society. While most people use it as a way to encourage others to let go of menial transgressions, it can quickly turn into poor advice for those who have been hurt by betrayal, abuse, and other deep relationship-wounding events. Join us as Kali Cook defines what forgiveness truly is and how to achieve inner peace despite the deep wounds of betrayal.

Bring your lunch! Bring your friends! Let’s watch the VonTrapps fight fascism together! Lyrics will be provided, and it is choir Sunday, but no need for choir rehearsal this time! We will take a quick pause at noon for those that must leave to make their exit, and for those of us staying to grab our lunches before coming back together to finish the movie! And hey, does anyone have a popcorn machine we could borrow?

Coming out services at UUFF have become favorites. We hear from our members and friends about some of the biggest moments in their lives. And through their stories, we explore our own lives and how we have shown to others who we are. Whether a straight ally or queer, this meaningful service isn’t to be missed. Coming out stories will be shared by Maddy Bentley, Benjamin Hilliard, and Ginger Doss. Ginger will also share their music with us along, with Oliver Edge!

How exciting to be kicking off our season of giving with UUFF’s second annual Fall Festival! Rev. Renée will lead us – from the pulpit AND at the keys – in an abbreviated service about the UU Core Value of Generosity! We will then move to our green space to enjoy a BBQ picnic lunch (main dishes provided by UUFF, with members and friends bringing side dishes and desserts – see flyer just below for details on what to bring), spinning by Sooj, various activities, games, raffles, and most importantly – precious time together! It’s going to be a lot of fun!
