UPCOMING WORSHIP SERVICES
We will meet both in person and remotely via Zoom at 11am. See details below. Join us!
December 8: “The Recovery Road Story”
Speaker: Robin Rush
Robin Rush, the founder of Recovery Road, will share her experiences, strengths, and hopes in starting a non-profit in Anaheim to help people with food insecurities, provide recovery resources, and train Orange County residents in the use of the life-saving opioid reversal drug Naloxone. For the last ten years, she managed the Anaheim Alana Club. During the pandemic, she started a nonprofit called Recovery Road. Since DHCS offered free naloxone (NARCAN) in 2018, Robin has had free Naloxone (NARCAN) at each location. She now teaches and educates for Orange County Health Care Agency about the use of Naloxone so that we can spread awareness about the easy and free use of this amazing drug to save lives.

Dear Fellow UU Anaheim Congregants
The UUCA Board of Trustees has decided that wearing masks at our in-person services and meetings is now voluntary. The reduction in Covid-19 infections has allowed this change, but those who wish to continue wearing masks are free to do so. We also recommend that attendees receive vaccinations for COVID-19, and if you are sick, please stay home. We will also again host our communal potlucks after Sunday worship services. Please contribute a dish if you can, and use the hand sanitizer for everyone's safety. We look forward to seeing you all here, either in person or virtually, however you are most comfortable. We will inform you by email and on our web site if conditions change again.
Warm regards, Your UUCA Board of Trustees
