REMINDER: The Shared Pulpit Seminar
This event has been POSTPONED
Do you have something to say? Maybe it's time to say it during a Sunday morning service.
The idea of public speaking can be intimidating, but it can also be quite a feeling of accomplishment to communicate your ideas in a way that can get your point across, sharing it with your religious community.
Rev. Tiffany will be hosting a "Shared Pulpit Seminar" to give you the tips and tools you need to put together a 15 minute message. Attending this seminar does NOT obligate you to do any speaking, but it might be a great opportunity to think about the possibilities. We can only accommodate 12 people in this seminar so sign up soon.
When
Saturday May 14 from noon until 4pm, in-person.
Email minister@hvuuc.org to sign up.

Beware of Text and Email Scams
Just a heads up to be wary of any communications via text or email asking for you to buy something or send money!
A congregant was contacted by someone via text claiming to be Rev. Tiffany asking them to buy gift certificates. This has also happened by email.
Rev. Tiffany’s correct email is minister@hvuuc.org. Neither she nor anyone from HVUUC office would contact you in this way with a request to send money or purchase anything. If you are concerned of any request, please confirm with her or the church office (office@hvuuc.org).

Sierra Club Meeting
Musical Activism Sunday Service and Announcements
Music is the universal language that crosses cultural boundaries; which goes to show that music would be a key element in political, environmental, and social justice events. When language, custom, or opinion has built a wall between us, a few notes with an intention behind them can breach even the strongest defenses. This Musical Activism service will touch on a few key songs that have changed us as people and the world as a result.
WETS-FM Spring 2022 Fund Drive
If you usually donate to WETS-FM or plan on donating this year, consider allowing your donation to help the church as well. We can continue to be an underwriter for programming which allows us to get our message out in the community. WETS gets 100% of the money, you still get the tax benefits, and our church gets our name out in the community. You can help two great organizations!
