Supporting Our Neighbors:
A Weekly Gift of Gratitude
Each week, our church community continues to show incredible generosity through donations to the Community of Gratitude Food Bank. This vital outreach effort is made possible thanks to the kindness of our members—and the dedication of Linda and Phil.
Every Sunday, Linda and Phil collect the food items you've thoughtfully placed in the donation cart, located just inside the front door of the church. On Tuesday, they deliver these contributions to the food bank, ensuring that families in need receive support in a timely and compassionate way.
Your donations—whether it's a few cans from your pantry or a full grocery bag—make a meaningful difference. Thank you for being part of this ongoing mission of care and compassion.
Let’s keep the cart full and the spirit of giving alive.
Cuts to SNAP are deeply affecting food banks, a little bit extra would be a great idea just now.

Little Lake Weir Pavilion 2
When you enter the facility you'll see a pay station that is not operated this time of year. Drive on to the sign that says "Little Lake Weir" and turn right to Pavilion # 2. (If there's any question about fees, I will handle it with the park manager.) We will provide some meat and roasted corn on the grill. If
everybody can bring a side dish, that would be great and your drink of choice. There are plenty of picnic tables and a shelter but if you like, bring a lawn chair. The restrooms are available right beside
our pavilion.
After we visit for a while and have a nice meal, if anyone would like to go on a hike, India and I are very familiar with the trails. Bring some hiking boots and some trek poles if you wish. here is a kayak launch in the same area.
Please use the sign-up sheet behind the AV station.

Words on the Wind: Celebrating Native American Wisdom and the Natural World
Throughout history, Native Americans have relied on oral traditions—stories and songs—to preserve and pass down their ancient wisdom from one generation to the next. Words on the Wind, a series created by Morning Light Films, seeks to document some of this irreplaceable knowledge through short documentary films.
The current project, and the focus of this Forum, honors the ancient Haudenosaunee Thanksgiving Address. Unrelated to the modern holiday of Thanksgiving, this Address is a traditional prayer of 18 verses that expresses gratitude for the natural world.
The first installment of Words on the Wind has aired for more than ten years on PBS stations nationwide.
Lou Angora has written, produced, and directed a wide range of television and radio commercials, corporate video presentations, broadcast programs, and even live satellite video events. His early interest in journalism helped shape his documentary‑style approach to video and film production, as well as scriptwriting.
His client list includes Eastman Kodak Company, Xerox Corporation, Unity Health System, Monroe County Health Department, the U.S. Department of Energy, National Laboratories, University of Rochester Medical Center, Rochester City School District, and many others.
Lou and his wife Ellen regularly attend Tri‑UU services.
All are invited to join a potluck dinner following the program. Visit TriUU.org for directions.

"Love Letters"
Bernard Moran and Jeffifer McMahon will present a dramatic reading of A.R. Gurney's Pulitzer Nominated play "Love Letters", The two actors will read a lifetime of correspondence between lifelong friends, revealing their complex relationship. Bernard Moran has been an actor for many years, not only on the stage but TV, radio and film. He's very happy to be performing A.R. Gurney's Pulitzer-nominated play, "Love Letters" for the third time at our church. It is a marvelous two-character play that runs the gamut of emotions from comedy to tragedy. It features a man and a woman who grew up together and spent their lives proclaiming their love through letters. Recently Mr. Moran has appeared in improvisational plays in The Villages. He also appears with the Old Time Radio Group. Jennifer McMahon hails from Buffalo, NY where she earned a PhD in Elizabethan Poetry and Drama from the University at Buffalo, where she subsequently taught. Jenifer has been the president of The Villages Shakespeare Club for three years. Fortunate to retire early, Jennifer lives in the village of Osceola Hills with her husband Joe, and their two Rhodesian Ridgebacks, Frank and Midas.
