Congregational Gatherings

In addition to our large Congregational celebrations, FUSP has several social or interest groups that are open to members that meet monthly or weekly. 

And don't forget the social coffee hour after the service on Sundays!

Men's Breakfast
Male members and friends meet the second Saturday of every month at 9:00am in the Stevens room for breakfast, fellowship and camaraderie. Bagels, coffee and miscellaneous goodies will be provided, along with the usual scintillating discussion. Hope to see you there.
Summer Men's Breakfasts
Stevens Room - July 12
There will be a Men's Breakfast on Saturday, July 12, at 9:00 am in the Stevens Room, hosted by Fred Lange and Bob Sommerich. Behrouz Khashayer is a sometime attendee at FUSP and a long time acquaintance of Fred's. Beh will talk to us about life in Iran uder the Shaw, the revolutiion and life under Ayatollah Khomeini. He will be pleased to answer questions. This should be a nice addition to our June presentation by Barry Siadat.
Women's Alliance
One of the oldest ongoing groups in the organization, the Women's Alliance was founded in December, 1889 under the name of the Women's Church Home Society. It was later renamed Women's Alliance. It meets monthly on the third Saturday, in the Steven's Room from 10:00 AM to Noon.
ANNUAL SUMMER PICNIC
July 19 - 11 AM at the Jones/Alleman home

We will once again have our ANNUAL SUMMER PICNIC on the beautiful front porch of the home of Gayle Jones and Al Alleman. It will be on Saturday, July 19th beginning at 11:00 am. Plan to bring a picnic dish such as salad, dessert, etc. We'll have a short meeting first and then enjoy a delicious lunch together. Please sign up in advance with Joan Sweet. All FUSP women are welcome. We look forward to seeing all of you there.

Our next regular meeting will be in September on our usual third Saturday. Mark your calendars now.

Bring-a-Dish
These are congenial dinner parties at the home of a member. All are welcome, and we especially encourage new members to come. It's a relaxed way to get to know people better. Please call the host(s) to let them know what dish you will bring. There is a small charge for paper goods.
Game Night

One Friday night each month, 7 pm
Game Night is a wonderful opportunity to socialize and get to know one another better. All are welcome, of all ages. Bring a favorite game, a snack or drink to share, and a friend if you'd like. We look forward to playing with you. For information contact Heather Brown.

GAME NIGHT - FIRST FRIDAY OF THE MONTH
Friday, June 6, 2008

Our next monthly game night will be held at 7pm on June 6. We will probably take the summer off. We meet in the RE wing at FUSP, usually in the large room downstairs. Please bring a drink or snack to share and a favorite game or deck of cards or a friend. This is a great way to get to know new people and to know old friends better. All are welcome of all ages. For more information contact Heather Brown at heathbrown@aol.com

FUNd Raisers
Several times each year we gather as a congregation to work to raise additional funds for our Operating Budget. In June, we have a Giant Garage Sale with goods provided by our members. In December, we participate in the Plainfield Neighborhood Churches Fair, selling gifts and other holiday goodies. In February, we hold an auction of services offered by members: meals, tours, home repairs, works of art, singing telegrams, just about anything. Contact Fred Lange.
