TED Talk tUUesday canceled for the foreseeable future. I regret to announce that I am no longer able to lead Ted Talk tUUesdays. If someone else steps forward, I will be glad to share information on how I ran it - techie stuff, selecting the talks, advertising, etc. Should no one else step forward, we bid a sad farewell to a beloved OUUF tradition.

LIBRARY NOTES: January can often be a time when people are looking for new motivations and directions in their lives, and our own OUUF library can be a great source for fresh awakenings. The library has a large collection of inspirational books for members and friends to explore. Examples include The Peace Book, by Louise Diamond; Care of the Soul, by Thomas Moore; Rules for Aging: a Wry and Witty Guide to Life, by Roger Rosenblatt, and that old standby—Walden, by Henry David Thoreau. All books check out on the honor system. Just put them in the return basket on the library shelf when you are finished with them. Contact:
Geri Napier, OUUF Librarian, [email protected]
PENINSULA COMMUNITY DRUM CIRCLE. Tuesday, January 22, 2019 from 6:30 - 8:30 PM. FREE community drum circle gathering open to people of all ages and ability levels. If you are new to drumming, come give it a try. If you are an experienced
drummer with great rhythm, we need you! Lots of drums & other percussion are available to use.It's FUN. It's grounding & decreases stress. JOIN US!
COMMUNITY READ: Again, this year OUUF is participating in the Interfaith Communities’ book read. This year the book is The Twelve Steps to a Compassionate Life by Karen Armstrong. As a scholar of world religions, Armstrong extends an invitation to explore the particular place of compassion in religious and ethical teachings. The OUUF group will be led by Bob Nuffer and will meet in the Fellowship Hall on Sundays from 2-3:30pm beginning on January 06, 2019 and running for 13 weeks. The book is available at Port Book and News with part of the purchase going to The Boys and Girls Club.
MANNA: On February 10, OUUF invites cooks to make their favorite chocolate treats and donate them for sale during the social time after service. The money will be donated to MANNA or another local charity.
DAYTIME MEN’S GROUP: The Men’s Breakfast Group has morphed into the Men’s Lunch Bunch. We will reconvene in February starting February 6, 2019 at 11:30am to 1pm. We will meet the first and third Wednesday of each month.
