Ethical Eating Potluck, Italy @ BUUF
Mar 31 @ 6:00 pm – 7:00 pm

Our monthly potluck will be on Friday, March 31st at BUUF. The dinner will start at 6PM as usual, not 6:30. We are very happy to be able to share the evening with the leaders and participants of the Hebrew Teachings group. If you are not interested in staying for the whole evening, that is fine. Please join us for dinner anyway. Italian Fare is the cuisine for the evening,  please bring your favorite vegetarian or vegan  Italian dish to pass…..this includes entres, salads, dessert, soup or bread! If you are in a rush and don’t have time to cook….come anyway.
If anyone needs a ride contact me at 269-235-0344. Diane Gibbons

Hebrew Wisdom Workshop: March NEW DATE @ BUUF
Mar 31 @ 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm

The eight-session “Wisdom from the Hebrew Scriptures” multigenerational workshop will take place on the third Friday of every month from 6:30-8:00pm. The first session will be conducted on Friday, October 21st inside the BUUF Sanctuary.

 

This will be a fun, relaxed workshop led by our beloved minister, Rev. Jim McConnell, with assistance from Brett Maccani, DRE and former DRE Joanne Krettek. In each session, we will review and discuss a particular story from the Hebrew Scriptures. The first session will focus on David & Goliath, with a theme of “courage.” Courage also happens to be our Sunday services theme this month.

 

Activities and discussions will be appropriate to all age groups. During the breakout group activities, you will have a choice of analyzing the story through discussion, dramatizing a modern-day David & Goliath story or making stone art with the theme of “five things that will give me courage.”
All BUUFers are invited to attend. Please feel free to invite friends and family members to participate as well.

Berrien UU  Fellowship serves lunch at the Benton Harbor Soup Kitchen the first Saturday of every even-numbered month (February, April, June, August, October and December). Berrien UU volunteers prepare the meal, greet guests and help clean up the kitchen. This is a terrific opportunity to serve the greater community, support our Social Justice mission and enjoy the company of fellow BUUFers and guests at the kitchen. Rev. Jim McConnell generously leads the group in planning the meal and dessert and he will gladly find a role for all volunteers, whether they’ve helped dozens of times or this is their first time. Please consider coming to the Soup Kitchen to help, even if it’s only for an hour or two.

The Soup Kitchen is located at 233 Michigan Street in Benton Harbor.
