NOTE: The review page, while striving to be a *mostly* accurate representation of what is going to appear in each week’s Compass, does on occasion, have a few flaws. One being, the times for certain Google Calendar events can be listed incorrectly. This is a known issue, and is currently being looked into. The calendar dates / times are corrected when moved over to Compass.

Thanks for your understanding.

Everyday Microjoys

In-Person + Online: 10:30am MST
Zoom: 833 5655 9128

Led by: Amy McKlindon
Worship Associate: Carrie Lifshitz

“Joy is not meant to be a crumb,” our UU Patron Saint Mary Oliver tells us. In times when our joys may feel smaller or harder to find, let’s explore together opportunities to identify and give in to the microjoys present in the everyday.

For audio only, phone 346-248-7799 and enter the meeting ID: 833 5655 9128

Close the Gap – Almost There!

Help Us Close the Gap in Our Giving!

To support our values and fulfill our commitments, we need your help to reach our budget goal. We’re operating on a zero-balance budget and making necessary sacrifices, but we can’t do it alone.

At our annual meeting on June 9, we approved a budget of $610,000. We are currently just $1,200 short of this goal.

We need 4 more pledging units to contribute $300/year or $25/month. Or we need 8 more pledging units to contribute $150/year or $12.50/month to Close the Gap and reach our 2024/2025 budget goal.

How to Help:

• Email: closethegap@phoenixuu.org
• Include your name and the additional amount you wish to pledge.
• If you have auto payments through your bank, please adjust them after notifying us.
• If you haven’t made a pledge yet, please email us, and we’ll get you set up.
• Every contribution counts and helps our UUCP community thrive.

Thank you for your generosity and support!
