October 6: “Celebrating National Hispanic Heritage Month”
Speaker: Rev. Judy Tomlinson
September 15 is Independence Day for many Central American countries, followed by Mexican Independence Day on Sept. 16 and Sept. 18 in Chile . We are in the midst of a month of celebrations. Let us cast our loving attention on this large and diverse group of our neighbors in appreciation for the vibrancy they bring to American culture. Let us also acknowledge the 29th anniversary of moving UUCA from our original location on W. Santa Ana St.

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
