GPUC MOVIE NIGHT:
"DEFYING THE NAZIS: THE SHARPS' WAR" FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 3 AT 6PM Please join us on Friday, February 3, 2023 for our first movie night in the New Year: "Defying the Nazis: The Sharps' War." This is the never-before-told story of Waitstill and Martha Sharp, an American minister and his wife from Wellesley, Massachusetts. Waitstill was a UU minister. He and Martha left their children behind in the care of their parish and boldly committed to a life-threatening mission in Europe. Over two dangerous years they helped save scores of imperiled dissidents and refugees fleeing the Nazi occupation across Europe. Doors in the annex will open at 6:00 P.M. for fellowship, wine, soda, and snacks provided by the Fellowship Committee. Donations will be gladly accepted. The film will start at 7:00 P.M. sharp, followed by discussion of the film, lead by Dr. Riegel and Julie Artis. Note - sign up is required. If you need help signing up, call the church office. Members and friends welcomed! |

Second Sunday Food Sharing takes place the Second Sunday of each month. Our donations are taken to Crossroads East on Moross, just east of I-94. This location is close to our church home and has a food pantry, clothing closet, provides job assistance, and counseling. We will be collecting non-perishables such as cereal, noodles, rice, canned fruits, veggies, soups, and sauces. If you prefer to donate monetarily, your money is used to buy items such as eggs, milk, meat, produce, and bread. Our donations are greatly appreciated and really help keep the shelves, fridge, and freezer stocked. Please consider putting a couple extra cans or boxes of food in your cart next time you're out shopping. Toiletries, such as deodorant and toothpaste are also helpful. Thank you!
