Stone Soup Sunday — 10:30 a.m. Sunday, November 23, 2025

When it feels as though we are living in a time of scarcity, how can we act from a place of abundance? Come hear the familiar story, as told by members of the Magic Valley Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, introducing three strangers who coax an entire village into realizing the power of sharing and giving in the interactive service. This story also motivates us to be aware of opportunities to notice grace and practice random acts of kindness.

Join us for our Stone Soup Service, canned food drive, and potluck lunch following the service. Please bring a non-perishable food item to donate to the Idaho Food Bank. Monetary donations will also gladly be accepted.

Service by Don Morishita

Our Principles in Action: Write for Rights, 2025 — 10:30 a.m. Sunday, November 9, 2025

Justice begins when people of conscience refuse to stay silent. Join us for a Unitarian Universalist service of reflection and action as we take part in Amnesty International’s Write for Rights campaign. Together we’ll explore how writing letters has freed prisoners, protected activists, and upheld the inherent worth and dignity of all people. Come prepared to write, reflect, and reaffirm our Fifth Principle: the right of conscience and the use of the democratic process to make justice real.

Presented by Perri Gardner and Jonathan Thompson
