Going deep isn’t always easy or comfortable,
but the depths are where we find
meaning, growth, and transformation.
It isn’t dangerous, but it’s best done in groups.

Music by Kathy Shimberg & Peter Blue
Worship Associate Julian Pecenco

Forward

For All UUSO Youth going into
7-12th Grade this Fall

There will be a Pizza Party Friday, Sept. 6 from 6-8pm, hosted by Rev. Craig and DRE Susan!

Let’s get together to regroup after a summer of adventures. We want to know what would make this next church year the very best for you and we have some exciting ideas to share!

Come to the Olympia Brown House at 16 Ford Ave. Interested friends are also welcome. Please RSVP so we know how much pizza to order. Text or call me at 607-643-1927. You can also send me an email at dre@uuso.org. Please share this message with any 6-12th graders or UUSO adult youth advisers who might want to come.

Hope to see you soon!
Susan Ryder
UUSO Director of Religious Education
