Senior Lunch

Senior Lunch is starting up after a long hiatus due to the Covid Pandemic.

We will meet in Howson Hall on the 2nd Wednesday of the month, from noon to about 1:30.  Attendees will need to bring their own lunch and drinks, as we do not have staffing to prepare food and drinks and clean up afterward.  Lunch will be about 20 minutes, then we will have a program, either in Howson Hall or in the Sanctuary.  Please note that food and drinks are not allowed in the sanctuary.


This coming season most of the programs will be presented by members of the congregation, with the object of getting to know them better.  Q and A can be a part of their presentation.


The first meeting is on Sept. 14th.  It will be a Singalong of favorite Broadway songs, by Charles Palmer, Baritone, and Kathryn Govier, Pianist, in the Sanctuary.  Word sheets will be provided.


The October program will feature our Rev. Erin, and we will learn about the “many hats” she wears, and what she will be doing with the congregation, while we are int he interim transition period.


November will feature Donna Carpenter and Okey  Nwanyanwu


December will feature Katrina Saporsantos and Benjamin Dai. 


You certainly don’t have to be a “Senior” to attend.  If the program interests you, Please Join Us!!!!!!!

REPRODUCTIVE JUSTICE CLEARING HOUSE

A number of church members have been asking about how to get involved in working for reproductive justice.
 
As your church and our social justice team work to determine how the church will respond more broadly, we are creating a clearinghouse of information regarding opportunities to get involved, such as through volunteering and attending marches, rallies, protests and the like.
 
These could be individual opportunities, as well as opportunities for which a group of church members might come together to participate as a team, perhaps carrying the church “Side with Love” banner.
To create the clearinghouse, we need your help!
 
The simple online form that is linked below will allow you to submit such local opportunities about which you may have learned. As noted on the form, please only submit those opportunities which have already been made public by their sponsor(s).
 
Click below to go to the online form:
We will then merge the opportunities into one, online clearinghouse for this information.
You can access the clearinghouseat the link below:
 
For now, the clearing house will be maintained by your church administrative staff and minister, so please allow a couple of days for updates to the online clearinghouse to get made.
We hope this will be of help. If you have any questions, please send an email to info@austinuu.org.
Yours in solidarity and doing justice in our community!
