Greetings, members and friends!
This is just a reminder that this Sunday, November 2nd, marks the end of Daylight Saving Time. This means that we'll "fall back," gain an hour, and will need to set clocks back one hour if they don't change automatically.
Hope to see you in person or on Zoom this Sunday!
Dear LFUU Members and Friends,
Our program theme for October is Cultivating Compassion. How do we as a congregation cultivate compassion amongst ourselves? How do we become what we want to see in the world? To be the light?
A new 5-week meditation group will meet Tuesday evenings at Lake Fellowship beginning October 21 (6:30–8:00 p.m.). Each week offers a quiet space to pause, reconnect, and explore a different meditation technique through guided practice, silence, and gentle reflection. Led by Matthew Tift, a Kripalu Yoga teacher with training in mindfulness and meditation, the group welcomes everyone. No experience or beliefs required. The group is free, but please register ahead of time so we know how many to expect.
On Saturday, October 18, people all across the country will gather for No Kings, a day of action to lift up democracy, justice, and worker power. Instead of bowing to authoritarianism, we will come together to tell a different story of America, rooted in freedom and dignity for all.
We will meet at the A-frame at 11:30 a.m. to carpool to the Chaska event that starts at 12:30 p.m. If you would like to attend, please email Laurie Gauer (gauer_mn@yahoo.com).
On Saturday, November 15, Lake Fellowship will host a discussion of Authentic Selves: Celebrating Trans and Nonbinary People and Their Families, last year’s UU Common Read. We will gather from 10:00 to 11:30 am to share reflections, questions, and conversation.
Hi Lake Fellowship members and friends, this Sunday, Oct. 5th, is theSoup Sunday, Yahoo!
You remember how this works, you get something taste (soup or yummy snacks) to eat and you donate $$ to the charity chosen by your “soup” makers.
Also, please sign up to provide “soup” for a future Sunday. You’ll find a signup sheet on the bulletin board (thanks for putting that up, Terry).
It’s time to collect your non perishables and bring them to LF this Sunday, Oct. 5th for Lake Fellowship’s Neighborhood Food Project! You all know how this works, you get some groceries/personal items and bring them to LF (or have a friend deliver them, like the McGlynn’s are bringing our bag) on the first Sunday of the month (Sept- May), Curtis and Patsy will deliver the items to WeCAN’s food shelf and mobile mark on Monday. We have a few “Green/orange Bags” at the A-frame, so feel free to bring your donations and fill up a bag.
Welcome to LFUU's 2025-26 Program Year! My first instinct was to say, “Welcome HOME!” After 35 years as a member, the beginning of our program year feels like a homecoming to me. But if you haven’t been coming to Lake Fellowship of Unitarian Universalists for very long, maybe it doesn’t yet. My second instinct was to say, “Welcome BACK!” But perhaps you’ll be visiting us for the first time . . . I’m excited for you and us!
Hi, Lake Fellowship (LF) members and friends!
I am very excited to announce the continuation of “Soup Sunday” for charity at the A-frame this Sunday (9-7-25)! What is Soup Sunday you ask, well it’s a brainchild of member, Vicki Larson. The idea is to serve soup (or stew) on the first Sunday of every month after the program with members and friends. You will enjoy soup or a light snack and contribute any amount you can to a charity in our community.
Hi all, it’s time to resume Lake Fellowship’s Neighborhood Food Project (NFP), so load up your “green or orange” food bags (if you don’t have one, just put the food in a paper bag)! You all know how this works: you get some groceries/personal items and bring them to LF (or have a friend deliver them) on the first Sunday of the month (Sept- May) and the Muehlbergs will deliver the items to WeCAN’s food shelf and mobile market on Monday. We have a few “Orange Bags” at the A-frame (if you need one), so feel free to bring your donations and fill up a bag.
