Hi, Adeline --

The overall folder looks very good.  I appreciate what effort it has taken 
to get it to this point!
Of course, I have a few suggestions for improvement.

Martha

Are You a Newcomer?
For smoothness, consider "join us for refreshments and conversation."    The 
tea or coffee wording seems awkward.

We Welcome:  The verb forms and syntax don't seem in parallel.  Consider
"We strive to be a congregation that welcomes all persons, and we are 
committed to structuring . . ."
OR
"We strive to be . . ., and we commit to structure . . ."

Are You New UU?
Let's condense and clarify.  "To receive the Weekly Update and the monthly 
newsletter by email, contact . . ."

Children/Parents
". . . welcome and begin . . .    No comma needed.

Faith
Alternate wording suggestion:  "We gather in reverence and gratitude for our 
worship services and strive in these services to create opportunities for . 
. ."
How about "worship service OF music, story . . ."?     (The word "include" 
appears again right away.)

Interested in Becoming?
No comma needed: "with Greeter/Host or with Rev Kat

I think it is "Hearing Assistance Devices"
