After the service, we really hope you will stay for an informative and interactive program with the Safety Team here at the UU. Join our Safety Task Force this Sunday from 11:30-1:00 to learn about our safety policies, participate in hands-on training with a fire extinguisher and defibrillator, deescalation training and more.
