Opportunity to support northern Colorado LGBTQIA community: For the very first time, the newly formed PFLAG of Greeley is going to be marching with Noco Pride in the July 4th parade in Greeley. I would like to invite members of Greeley UUC walk with us, especially in light of the recent Orlando tragedy. There is still work to be done to ensure equality for so many of our community. Please consider participating. Julie Miller will be providing more information as it becomes available. If you would like to participate, please contact her by email at deeplightcounseling@gmail.com. Thank you! LFS Backpack Drive- For those of you who aren’t aware, the Lutheran Family Services Refugee & Asylee Program office is a ½ block from our UU church and has been using classroom space at the church for job readiness classes on Tuesdays and Wednesday afternoons. The UU church of Greeley has also participated in a winter attire drive last winter and helped Sarah Gostenik provide baby carriers to refugees in Greece this last March. Now, gearing up for the upcoming school year, LFS is hosting a backpack drive for refugee and foster care students in our area. If you’d like to participate, please see the flyer on the bulletin board in the foyer for details and you can drop off at the LFS office (1502 9th Ave) by July 22nd, or contact Sarah at sarah.gostenik@lfsrm.org. You may also contact Sarah if you have an interest in volunteering with LFS or learning more about refugee issues. Thank you for supporting our refugees from Somalia, Burma, Cuba and Eritrea and making them feel welcome in Greeley as they work towards self-sufficiency!
