This Week's ServiceSunday, December 14, @ Northwest UU
"Hope is a Sewer Rat" Pastor Eli Kranz We've sanctified hope and made it unreachable. But what if hope is something we can hold, something we can mold, and something that can take us forward? How do we have hope when it's all hopeless? Upcoming Worship ServicesSunday, December 21, 10:30 am
Joint @ NWUU "Hannukah Pageant!" Rev. Julie Brock & Eva Leventer Sunday, December 21, 6:00pm @ NWUU "Candlelight Service" Alex Meyers & Diana Kohler Plate Collection/Donations50% Shared Plate Collection
Freedom House Detroit is our 50% shared plate collection recipient for November. Freedom House is an internationally known refuge for people seeking asylum in the United States. They provide housing, legal aid, mental and physical health services, and placement for outside housing and jobs to transition clients to live independently. Probably their best well-known former residents now run the award winning Baobab Restaurant at Grand Boulevard and Woodward. Freedom House currently houses over 200 residents, many of whom are children. In speaking of refugees, Hannah Arendt said, “For those affected, ‘powerlessness has become the major experience of their lives’. Everyone, she argued, should be allowed to belong somewhere.” The rules for the Share the Plate Sunday are as follows: Any funds received during the offertory that have no designation will be split 50/50 between our guest recipient and the church. Please mark in the memo area of your check, on the envelope, or via the online link as to how you want your donation to be allocated. Share the Plate donations do not count toward your pledge.
