I’m posting a message and 3 pictures sent to the UUCortland-L email list by John Ogden:

John Kirk, Dan Duggan, and Rick Bunting perform as the Susquehanna String Band October 16, 2009.

Hi Everyone,

Here are some photos of events that have taken place at or for the church recently.  So in addition to what goes on Sundays, we participate in and organize other activities.  These are signs of our vitality.  They are also signs of the broad participation from our congregation, one way we all contribute to the on-going health of our community.

The first is, of course, the Susquehanna String Band that performed last Friday evening.

The second is the group that assembled at our church today at 12:30 to promote health care reform, Health Care For America Now (HCAN): http://healthcareforamericanow.org/.  The group then walked to Rep. Michael Arcuri’s office across the street.

Finally, today was the second fundraising event of the season, the plant sale at the College. This was instigated by Julia Schult who provided the plants.  Others helped repot them and sell them. The photo shows Julia and Jeannine Thibault. (Details on other helpers will follow.)

Thanks, John
