Community Gatherings Coming to a Place Near You
One of the gifts and challenges of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Stockton is that our members come from a wide area. It is a gift because we represent so many different communities. Yet, gathering together can be a challenge with so much travel for many. We have members and friends who live in Stockton, Scales Mound, Galena, Elizabeth, Freeport and many other places.
In the next few months, Michele and members of the church will host community coffee/tea gatherings in many of these communities. Below are two already on the schedule. Watch for more over the next few months.
And there is nothing that says you should only go to the one in your community. This may be a fun time to visit other communities and learn more about the members and friends who reside there.

UU FUNRAISER GARAGE SALE JUNE 14/15
Are you doing Spring Cleaning and Organizing? Before giving away those unwanted items, please consider saving them for the UU GARAGE SALE which will be held June 14 and 15 in the Patterson Room. This is our first big fundraiser and it is on the same weekend as the Stockton all-town garage sales.
Items can be brought to the church starting Sunday, June 2. ALL ITEMS MUST BE PRICED by you. We will have price stickers available at the church if you need them. Items donated must be clean and in good condition. We will also have a table for Jewelry and Plants. ITEMS NOT ACCEPTED include TVs, clothes, and oldy-moldy books.
After the sale, you are welcome to take your items back if they did not sell. This needs to be done by Sunday, June 16, as we will be donating the leftovers to My Friend’s Closet on Monday the 17th.
We’d like to know if you wish to reserve a table (or part of a table) for your items, so we have an idea of how many tables to set up. There will be a sign-up sheet in the Patterson Room.
If you have any questions, please contact Sheila Haman at sheila.haman626@gmail.com or Diane Westervelt at gigglingtofu@gmail.com. Thanks, everyone!
