This year’s Raffle items are a $200 Amazon gift card, $100 worth of lottery tickets, a basket of gift cards to local merchants, LEGO sets, and a beautiful patchwork quilt designed and made by the UUCR Quilters. This year’s quilt is “Geode.”
Come at 9 to enjoy fresh-baked scones from the Snack Bar while they last, or come at lunchtime to enjoy homemade chili, either with meat or vegan, and many other treats. All of the Snack Bar offerings are nut-free.
The Kris Kringle Fair is the church’s biggest fellowship event and fundraiser of the year. When the fair comes around each fall, everyone at UUCR organizes, donates, bakes, cooks, sings, plays music, greets, staffs tables, or shops—working side by side to make this daylong fair a much-anticipated and enjoyed event for the church, for Reading, and for surrounding communities.
UUCR is led by the Reverend Dr. Laura Solomon. Church services and Religious Education classes are held in person on Sunday mornings at 10 am. Services are also broadcast on YouTube. All are welcome.
