You Might Just Get What We Need
November 16, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. Online and in-person Rev. Bret Lortie
Cultivating gratitude from the things already present in our lives, not the sometimes unrealistic fantasies we concoct.
*NEW* We have put together some great raffle baskets to add to the in-person event! Bring cash if you want to buy tickets for the 50/50 or the basket raffles. Prices for both raffles are $1/ticket, 6/$5, or an arms length for $20.
Liz Long, who works in the nursery on Sundays, will be providing childcare in the library during the auction. If your kids are hungry, we encourage you to stop in Deale Hall with them first and fill up a plate to bring into the library!
If you are unable to attend in person, you can still participate in the online auction now through Saturday at 6pm on the website: Falling For UU Auction Catalog
We hope to see many of you on Saturday!

Adopt-an-Angel
Bring holiday joy to a local child in Foster Care!

Let’s share the spirit of the season, one gift at a time!
MELD Donation Collection
We will be holding our annual holiday collection to support Rockford MELD again this year. You are invited to choose an ornament from the tree with an item requested by a family listed on the back of it. You may choose more than one ornament. Once you have purchased the items listed on the ornament, place them in the bin in the narthex designated for MELD donations. Please do not wrap the items that you donate. Contact Lindsay with any questions reuurockford@gmail.com.
Donations will be collected through Sunday, December 14.
