Print and color an ornament for our Bard Hall Paper Tree

12/1/2020

We won't be putting up an actual tree this year, but we will be creating a two-dimensional paper tree for Bard Hall's window! If you'd like to help decorate that tree, print out the PDF, decorate the ornament and/or paper chain strips, cut them out and return to church. You can drop them off at the Holiday Drive Through or drop them in the Main Office mail slot no later than noon on Dec 19, 2020.

"One Way" - a poem by Harry Griswold

11/23/2020

Here's a wonderful new poem from Harry Griswold, one of our members. It is entitle "One Way".

We're UU's, we tolerate,
we try not to impose
just one point of view,
but for this year of
Covid Thanksgiving
we hope you
won't travel
won't gather in groups
won't hug
won't jabber
around the table
with your mouth and
everyone else's open.

It's a great chance
not to have to listen
to your brother-in-law
or weird uncle Leo
who Grandma thinks
may have been
mixed up at birth.
There'll be fewer fights
and a lot less passing
of the sweet potatoes
someone has coughed in,
plus a lot less chance
of handing around
a potentially deadly virus.

So while we UU's try
not to impose any one
point of view
we think this year
there's only one way
to be safe, we hope
you'll stay home
and give up happy things
you'd rather be doing,
give up the people
you'd rather be with
to help increase chances
they'll all be around
for next year's gathering
when we can
stuff the thanks back
into Thanksgiving.
~ Harry Griswold
