The Giving Tree
Revs. Tim Temerson and Leia Durland-Jones
We worship in multigenerational community as we celebrate
our annual Giving Tree! Come and let yourself
be nourished by story, song, and sharing.
The choir is singing special holiday selections and
the UUCville House Band, with special musical guests,
will get us all feeling the holiday spirit!
Give yourself the gift of being present with your church friends and family as we prepare for winter celebrations as well as for times of quiet, rest, and renewal.
Donations of gift cards in any amount will be gratefully received during the service and gifted to the Family Support Team at Greer Elementary School. Gift cards help families whose budgets are stretched thin, especially during the holiday season. Gift cards will also be gifted to families in our own congregation whose budgets are tight.
All are welcome in the sanctuary, social hall, or online for the full hour.
Child care is available during worship for children 5 & under in Lower Hall Room 1.
