Dear Texas UUs and our justice-seeking friends,
I loved seeing your
MLK Day photos! Scroll down for those!
BUT FIRST... I ask "will we see you?" because:
1) Our
"TXUUJM: 10 Year & Growing!" event is THIS SATURDAY!
2) We've waited a long time to be together again, and ...
3) We need to know ASAP
how much food to order and what kind! (We have severe food allergies in my family, so I know how important food info can be. I also simply don't want anyone to be hungry while our
awesome speakers are inspiring us on Saturday!)
Click NOW to register!* (bit.ly/txuujm10)
The event will include:
- expert speakers to get us
inspired and informed for the 88th Texas Legislature and the broader justice work of 2023 and beyond;
- food and fellowship;
- in-person and virtual options;
- childcare + programs for youth and kids;
- photographer and videographer to document and interview those who want to tell
stories of TXUUJM's history or your own passion for justice;
- singing songs to
warm up for singing in the capitol rotunda in March;
- time for messages of
appreciation to Rev. Chuck Freeman ... and more!
I had someone tell me during the MLK March yesterday that some folks perceive TXUUJM as a large organization and therefore one person's attendance or participation might not make a big difference. Not so at all! We are a grassroots organization made up of one person, and one UU congregation, at a time.
We need each other. Each person who shows up matters deeply. Yes, that means you.
SCHOLARSHIPS available and generously provided by First UU Austin and Houston, with our thanks. Please don't hesitate to click the scholarship button if you need. Your
TXUUJM community is so excited to see you Saturday, in person or online!
Bending Texas Toward Justice TOGETHER,
Rev. Erin Walter
