Michael W. Brown. The author draws his insights not only from the world's great religious and philosophical traditions, but from everyday experience—relationships, baseball, even the never-ending quest for the perfect lawn.A fine addition to your own library, this book is also the perfect gift for family and friends who are UUs (even if they don't know it yet) or who wonder what our faith is all about. "Michael writes in the tradition of Unitarian Universalism, speaking to the principles of worth and dignity and to the virtues of Truth and Beauty. He writes from the passions of his heart passed through the firing clarity of his thinking."—From the foreword by the Rev. Dr. David Robbins Softbound, 183 pages. $18.00 (plus $2.00 postage and handling if sent by mail)—contact the church office to order.

You buy and use them at face value. (For example, a $25 scrip card buys you $25 worth of merchandise.) The profit goes to the church operating budget. You can buy scrip for several local supermarket chains (Cub Foods, Kroger, and Schnucks) at coffee hour on most Sundays. You can also place an order for scrip from hundreds of other merchants. The more scrip you buy, the more money we raise! Look for the scrip table at coffee hour, or contact the church office for more information. ![]() Discount BooksBuy your favorite books at a discount and raise funds for the church!Just order books by email or at coffee hour from church member Bob Gordon, proprietor of Acme Books & Comics. If a book can be purchased at major bookstores, chances are Bob can get it for you. Your discount is at least 10% off the list price of the book, and Bob will also donate a percentage to the church. Your books will be available at coffee hour within two weeks of placing your order. Group orders are welcome. For more information or to order books, email Bob. ![]() Fundraising EventsThroughout the year we hold special events that help support our church budget—and provide fun, entertainment and bargains!
