Have you noticed the painting project being completed this week at church? How nice to get a bright white refresh to begin the summer season!

The top of our sign was also painted and restored- doesn’t it look great?

The United Church of Christ has joined an initiative to encourage everyone to complete 250 acts of kindness to celebrate the 250th birthday of the United States.

From the article linked below:

“In a time of anger, division, and violence highlighted in the media, publicizing kindness across organizations and industries throughout the United States can tip the scales and ignite a cultural shift. This is an invitation to be part of a national movement that lifts up compassion, connection, and unity during this historic year.”

Will you join us in spreading kindness this year?

The United Church of Christ has partnered with the Values in Action foundation to encourage everyone in the U.S. to join the United States of Kindness
