Notes from the Director
Youth Group:
Our Youth Group meets tonight, Wednesday, August 19th, at 6:30-8pm. Members of the UUFM UU the Vote committee have planned a presentation for tonight’s meeting. We will discuss ways other than voting that our youth may get involved this election season. We also will plan for our regular check-in, with the potential of a short game at the end if we have a little time left.
Dear Friends,
As I continue to keep you all in my hearts and thoughts, please know that I am just an email or a phone call away. While I am no longer holding virtual “office hours”, you can reach me on my personal phone at 507-995-7929. Currently, I am available for daytime meetings on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I also do have availability most other weekday evenings. I will continue to do my best to serve as a resource to our community, through connecting you to one another and of course, directly. Being a light in the lives of others is as important as ever, and I hope you will stay connected.
Please consider joining our private Facebook group: UUFM Children’s Faith Development
(https://www.facebook.com/groups/1404655806251029/). This group is intended for families and congregants who are involved in Children’s Faith Development. My approval of new members’ access to the information there is what makes the group a safe space for sharing. I will be sharing our weekly stories as Facebook videos on my personal page publicly and sharing them in the group, as well as short prayers and meditations.
Link to the stories:
Our virtual Stories for All Ages are now available on the UUFM YouTube Channel. At least one new story will be available by Sunday, each week.

Virtual Children’s Chapel
Our next Children’s Chapel will be Sunday, August 30th. Keep an eye on next week’s update for additional details.
Virtual Scavenger Hunt
This week marks week 7 of our 7 Principles virtual scavenger hunt and stories. The scavenger hunt has been non-traditional and left room for creativity. The prompts have been intended for families to do in their own time. If you missed the emails with the prompts, the prompts continue to be accessible on the events tab of the UUFM CFD Facebook group.
