UU THE VOTE – A SWITCH TO SC LEGISLATIVE ISSUES. In conjunction with the South Carolina UU Justice Alliance (SCUUJA), our congregational UU the Vote efforts are now focusing on local and statewide legislative issues. The first issues selected include the Clementa C. Pinckney Hate Crimes Act. South Carolina is one of only 2 states without hate crimes legislation: a bill has been presented for the past 3 years, only to be sidelined by the state majority leader, Shane Massey.

We will be writing postcards to our local state legislators. Please join us in the FH after service. We look forward to seeing you.

Habitat For Humanity – Saturday, March 29. Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter started to volunteer with Habitat in 1984, and they continued to do so until Jimmy was in his mid-90’s. Together, they help to build, repair or remodel over 4,300 homes in the U.S. and internationally. Here is a great opportunity to help families take a life-changing step-up from homelessness to home ownership. We’re looking for 10 people to join us this Saturday morning.
