On Saturday morning, December 3, some FUUSM members and friends will be carpooling to the First Unitarian Universalist of Columbus in support of the family friendly, LGBTQ+ Holi-drag Storytime. We plan to form a circle around the church to protect the children, parents, and organizers, because according to right-wing social media, members of the Proud Boys intend to protest this event. They called for “a wild time,” which was the same verbiage used in advance of the Jan. 6 insurrection. To carpool, contact Andrew Clovis at (304) 266-6358, or wardwellsmercy at gmail.com.

A note from FUUSM Board of Trustees: 

Those who are interested in making a holiday gift donation to the FUUSM staff, your donation must be turned in by December 18, the third Sunday in December, in order to allow time for the gifts to be distributed for Christmas. There are several ways to contribute: Write a check to FUUSM, including an obvious notation on the bottom of your check that states, “Staff Gifts,” or, use cash. Either way, place it in an envelope that is also marked “Staff Gifts,” and do one of the following: 1) Place in the offering plate on Sunday; 2) Place in a box/can marked “Staff Gifts” in the back of the sanctuary or downstairs in the social hall; or 3) Drop it off at the FUUSM office, or, if the office isn’t staffed, put it in the mail cubby in the hallway for "Treasurer Ted Goertzel" or for "Steve Meyer, financial assistant." You may also mail a check to FUUSM, 232 Third St., Marietta, OH 45750, but please do not mail cash! For bookkeeping accountability and safety’s sake, checks are preferred. Thank you for your generosity! Attention to these gifting details is much appreciated!  

FUUSM representatives are needed to serve on the Empty Bowls planning committee. If this is your calling, please contact Virginia Mayle at (740) 376-9921.
