Pack your basket, and your blanket, (and your masks!), and join us for our annual SoREUUnite event – following the service on Sunday, September 26th from 1- 3pm.
We’ll spread out on the lawn, each family with their own self-catered picnic, and have the opportunity to reconnect through some activities from our new RE Teaching staff, a brief tour of the ongoing Playscape project, lawn games, hula hooping, and perhaps a little (safe) & socially-distanced sing-along. Contact DLRE, Amy Day, for more details.

 During these times of constant transition, sometimes the path ahead seems obscure.
What possibilities might we find ahead?
What obstacles might we encounter?
We come to contemplate these questions again and again throughout our lifetimes, arriving at different answers each time.
This interactive service will offer us an encounter with the question:
What are the possibilities within limits in your life currently?

No one speaks to “Embracing Possibility” quite like the great Sufi mystical poet, Rumi.
Four days short of the 814th anniversary of his birth (commonly thought to be Sept. 30, 1207) Rev. Farriday will explore Rumi’s wisdom and his lyrical yet profound calls to realize and express our spiritual essence.

 The Board of Trustees of the Humboldt Unitarian Universalist Fellowship in Bayside strongly supports the renaming of “Patrick’s Point State Park” to Suemeeg State Park. We support the effort to “identify and redress discriminatory names of features attached to state parks and transportation systems.” “Patrick’s Point honors Patrick Beegan, who was accused of murdering various Native Americans in the 1800’s.” “Suemeeg” is the the preferred phonetic spelling as recommended by the Yurok Tribe. You can express a personal opinion on this issue via email at: planning@parks.ca.gov

- Recurring Scams: During this age of super reliance on technology and the virtual world at large, it is no surprise the “hacker community” is in full force. Please be aware that there have recently been several different UUA/HUUF affiliated scams in circulation. These emails appear to be coming from either Bryan Jessup, Peter Farriday or Berti Welty, but there may be others. The emails are always asking for financial help or to purchase gift cards.

DELETE the email as soon as possible and report it to your email provider (i.e.: Gmail, Yahoo, Suddenlink etc.) Note: Any official email from HUUF will come from an “@huuf.org” address so look closely at who sent it, the scams are coming from fake Gmail accounts.
