Monthly Ministry Theme: The Gift of Heritage
Join us for this special service as we welcome Sin Barreras (Without Barriers) to share their extraordinary work with the Latinx community in Central Virginia and to launch a partnership between Sin Barreras and UUCville.
The service will include testimony from members of the local Latinx community, leaders from Sin Barreras, and UUCville members who currently volunteer
with the organization.
And be sure to join us after the service for delicious food and a conversation about immigration issues and opportunities to connect with Sin Barreras’ work.
