GUESS WHO’S COMING TO DINNER? (EVERYONE!---AND WE HAVE NO FOOD!)

The shelter in Rockville is looking for individuals and adults to provide meals. I told them I would pass this info along. Anybody want to sign up for a night?

It is always a challenge to find meals for the residents of our two shelters, the Community Based Shelter and Sophia House, located on Wilkins Avenue in Rockville, during the summer months when so many of our loyal volunteers are vacationing. Our needs run the gamut from a delivery of 25 bag lunches to a complete meal for 30 – 35. If an entire dinner sounds too imposing, how about helping us with just the side dishes or maybe just the main dish? You may stay to serve or simply drop off your dishes. This is an excellent opportunity for students to receive community service credit while gaining an appreciation for just how blessed their own lives have been.

Our numerous openings are listed below. Please call Cindy Hall, Volunteer Coordinator, at home (301/977-8022 or email netcindy@aol.com) to sign up today.

Pls. note:
lunch bags for Monday – Friday should be delivered anytime the day before as they are needed by 7am the day listed)

UU Humor Part 2 (More Rabbit Holes)

Maintaining links is like gardening and... the link to the Unitarian Church of Harrisburg PA is broke -- lost their sense of humor? I decided not to snip it but it's broke the last time I checked. I can't believe a congregation can lose it's sense of humor.

Ok, excuse me for venting, upon further review I see that they changed their humor link. I did not get the memo! I had to hunt around on their web site at The Unitarian Church of Harrisburg PA Good news their old link was broke (the link not their finances), and I found the new link!! The wonderful people of the Unitarian Church of Harrisburg PA outsourced their humor to a place called Stoney's...

I added another to fill in the gap but now I realize there is no gap. In fact the Stoney web site is huge. I often refer to links like this as very large rabbit holes. Huzzah for the Unitarian Church of Harrisburg...
