Unity Group Potluck – Blythefield CRC Attention : Pot Luck date has been changed to May 26. Get out your favorite recipe.

   The Inn Ministry Please consider buying a few items during your weekly grocery trip to donate to The Inn Ministry and bring them to service. There is a box as you enter to the left.  Shelf-stable milk and pull top cans are good for those “on the street”. Someone donated mac & cheeses in a cup.  Those went really fast! Cash donations go to buying bus passes for those who need transportation to work, as well as for the unhoused to get out of inclement weather for a while.   The generosity of this UU fellowship has been remarkable!   The food is gratefully received.

Thanks to those who have already volunteered!
