The UUCG Auction - it's Almost Here |
|
Our auction is a in two weeks away and there is still time to submit your auction items. For example here are some of the things that have been donated:
Indigo Girls Party, Jewelry, Vinyl records to CD conversion, Tutoring, Nanny Services, Aurora Arts Package, and yes, a pick-up truck of manurer!
If you would like to donate a silent auction item (a gently used item or perhaps a holiday present that was not your size or decor and no receipt in sight) you can drop it off starting Sunday, February 14th. Please use donation form and return to UUCG in the basket in the back of the sanctuary or you can e-mail it back to Kelly.
There is also a flyer with information about the night of the auction and also a list of volunteer opportunities.
Thanks so much and we look forward to seeing you on Saturday, February 20th.

As many of you know, a member of our own congregation, Nathalie Bigord, left the very day we held our second offering for Haiti on January 17th. Over the past week, she has stayed in touch via telephone, text, and Facebook. Some of you have very likely heard these updates, but we’ve put them together here for you so that it is all available in one place. Please note that, with the exception of the portion in quotations at the bottom, the vast majority of the following updates are taken from emails and Facebook updates. I have edited for grammar and, thus, there have been some changes from the direct statements made by the original speakers or writers. If you have any questions, please contact me or Debra Greenwood.
Yours in Trust, Compassion, and Inquiry,
Hannah
