Turning the Other Cheek

(and other Biblical misinterpretations)

Rev. Mike Morran

Join us on December 8th at 10:30 am.  After two thousand years, how do people keep getting the Bible so wrong?

We warmly invite you to join us in person, or if you prefer, you can also participate online. We look forward to seeing you there! 

Our service streams to Youtube and Zoom (meeting ID is 466-677-668 and the password is 454623).

Join us for coffee in the Community Room after the service.

Something, Some Day

written by Amanda Gorman and illustrated by Christian Robinson

This picture book is a story of hope and resilience. A little boy can’t help but notice the trash that piles on the streets of his neighborhood. People tell the boy it’s a lost cause, but he proves there’s no mountain of garbage that can’t be climbed, no problem that can’t be solved. What is the little boy’s solution? Come to the book table during coffee hour and find out.

Join us for upcoming fun family events! On December 20th, Solstice Eve, our children will sing a Christmas carol as part of the festivities. On December 22nd, during our Solstice Service, we will put on a production written by our very own Charlotte Braud-Kern, The Wish Tree! You won’t want to miss it.

Do you know any middle schoolers who would be interested in our Youth Program? You can enroll them in Breeze with this form. Unfortunately, we do not have enough volunteers to start in January. Current projected start date for the Youth Program (6th-8th graders) is March 2nd. This will be updated as we recruit more volunteers.

Currently seeking volunteers who are interested in serving in our Youth classrooms! We are looking for folks to facilitate lessons on world religions and to facilitate student-led fun. If you are interested in investing in the future of FUSD by serving in our Youth program, please contact Leslie at msleslie@fusden.org or complete this form in Breeze to get the process started.

Shout Out to this week’s Volunteer Superhero, Coral Cosway! Did you know our Board of Trustees President volunteers in our RE Program? She has served in our elementary classrooms several times this semester and we are incredibly grateful for her support. Thanks for working with our kids AND for all you do here at FUSD, Coral. You are extraordinary!
