Bill Gotchey has been a member of a men philosophical group for a few years. He really enjoys it and he would like to start one beginning in May with the UU guys. The plan would be to meet the first, third and fifth Saturday of each month. The meetings could be at the church or like his other group at a coffee shop. If interested, contact Bill Gotchey at gotchey@comcast.net

Spiritual Photography Project- We are putting together an art show consisting of your personal vision of spirituality.  Imagine an object or symbolic idea of something you consider spiritual.  It could be a traditional symbol or a sunrise or a laughing child or a warm embrace.  It could be a rainbow or wildlife or a simple smile.  It could be a place that puts you in a spiritual frame of mind.  If you don't have a picture, think about what symbolises your personal spirituality and take a picture of it.  We are asking for your submission of photography or art with a short paragraph describing why it is special to you.  If possible, the submission should be an 8x10 or larger framed.  If not possible, submit it anyway.  We'll see what we can do.  The show will be displayed over the summer months.  Please submit to Michael Free by June 10th.


If you have weekly announcements you'd like to submit,  be sure to email them to the Office Manager (office_manager@greeleyuuc.org) by 10am on the Tuesday of the week you'd like them to be in the announcements!
