No Kings Day

On Saturday, June 14th, there will be a terrific opportunity for our WUU community to step out and voice our commitment to our UU values of justice and love.

Joining hundreds of other cities across the country, a rally will take place 5:00 PM at the WJCC Courthouse to mark NO KINGS DAY – a day to protest the lawlessness of our current administration, a day to insist upon the rule of law, and the importance of human rights.

If you would like to carpool to the courthouse, please meet at WUU by 4:30 PM. We are expecting a larger-than-ever turnout at the Courthouse, so parking may be limited!

To prepare for this event, we will have a poster making session at 11:30 this Sunday, June 8th, after the service. Bring your poster boards (Dollar Store is the best place to buy them!), markers, paints and we will help each other create! (There will be some markers available if you do not have any.)

Questions? Contact Kate McGaw katemcgaw1@gmail.com

Carpool questions? Contact Wendy Mataya wmataya@aol.com

This event is approved by the UUA.
