OSPREY POINT
UUMH Women's Group Social
Monday, September 15th at 5:00 PM
Open to all women connected to the Meeting House. We meet at Osprey Point on certain Monday evenings at 5 PM for an hour or so (before the bugs!). Bring your lawn chair,
dinner/snack/whatever, and join new and old friends. It is a beautiful, peaceful place that we usually have to ourselves. Bring your cameras and/or your binoculars.
Sue B. will send out a reminder email a few days ahead. By the way…Osprey Point will not be found on any map or through any Google search. That’s because we named it! – for obvious reasons, as you will see.
Hope to see you there, at one of our favorite spots with some of our favorite people!

The club meets on the third Monday of each month, with summers off. In October, each participant chooses a book for the group. Location TBA.
Over the coming months, plan to lead the discussion for that book. Over the years, the group has read various fiction, nonfiction, and memoirs. This exceptional opportunity to get together and enjoy great conversation is a favorite time for the group. All are welcome!

"Tree of Hope" Community Initiative
We invite you to visit the "Tree of Hope" on the side lawn of the UU Meeting House, Main Street, Chatham. It is a place to seek comfort and share messages of loving kindness. Chatham resident Vangie Collins and several volunteers initiated the idea for this dedicated community space. The community can leave tokens and expressions of hope including kindness rocks, ornaments, or heartfelt thoughts and prayers. The newly decorated tree was introduced with messages of hope. Thank you to all who participated.

Small Group Gatherings
Join one of our small groups to build connections and to support and encourage each other in spiritual growth. Groups of 8 – 10 persons meet once or several times a month, morning, afternoon, or evening to encourage sharing and discussion of various topics. Discussion topics have included: right and wrong, humor, racism, fear, friendship, and spirituality. Anyone interested in joining a group may speak with the minister.
