This Sunday, October 30th!
UBC's FALL GATHERING
There is still time to sign up!
To make the October 30th Fall Gathering a reality, we need volunteers for
set-up, hay-ride drivers, chili cook-off vote managing,
food table, activities, and clean-up crew.
We need 15 cars for the Trunk or Treat, who will need to arrive by 3:30pm since the parking lot will be blocked off for activities.

This season’s Soccer Academy at UBC was a huge success. We had 43 families, totaling 64 children on our campus! We are so very thankful for the volunteers that made this event happen. A special thank you to Adam Ellis for organizing the coaches and Aaron Biggers for organizing set-up as well as the other 30+ volunteers!
Every person that volunteered was an integral part of the success of this event.

Volunteer as a Reading Friend!
Our ongoing partnership with Highland Elementary
is a unique and special relationship!
We are looking for volunteers willing to share time as a Reading Friend.
For 30-45 minutes each week, you can invest in the life of an elementary-aged student by reading with them. Organized through Volunteers in Public Schools (VIPS), this established program has made a difference in the lives of students all over the city-parish... simply by spending intentional time sitting with a child to encourage and read together.
Can you be a Reading Friend?
Contact the church office and we'll help you get started!
