June 20 – Dads Dancing in the Time of Covid

The past fifteen months have presented many challenges.  Three UUFA fathers/grandfathers reflect on the new dance steps they have learned in parenting/grandparenting long distance or in being a new grandparent.

John Olive, Lee Reed, and David Sweat will share their stories.

This month’s theme is “Celebration” as we reach the end of 2020-2021’s theme, “Let It Be a Dance.” During the interim period prior to calling a settled minister, UUFA has been dancing together, leading and following, giving and taking, learning and growing. In July watch for the debut of our next theme, “Building a New Way.”

Worship

Since its inception in September 2005, the UUFA Cause of the Month (CotM) program has been primarily helping groups in need in the Athens area, thus increasing the visibility and appreciation of our Fellowship in the community. In addition, several UU-affiliated programs have also been CotM.

Living Our Values

Kathy Larson is UUFA's Spotlight Volunteer for June. She has been active the last few months weeding, watering, transplanting and planting new perennial plants. She says she has enjoyed every minute and found it especially peaceful and calming during this past year. Thank you, Kathy, for your time and devotion to helping us GROW!
