LYNN HARRISON
We're fortunate to have the Rev. Lynn Harrison performing, hot 
on the heels of her latest CD release, and you'll want to be there. Tell all your friends about this amazingly affordable and intimate musical evening of excellence with Lynn. Have them join you there for a great evening out. Admission is only $6 and includes coffee and treats and the eclectic open mic entertainment portion happening between Lynn's two feature sets. It's going to be an amazing evening.
Splinters from the Board
Our next board meeting is Tuesday, April 11 on Zoom at 7 o'clock.
Spread the word about our monthly potluck lunches, a nice introduction to our congregation now that the tradition has been restarted.

Our first Dream Auction event since before COVID is in the offing.  

We always welcome anyone wishing to attend board meetings as an observer. Ken Woodhouse and Gloria Watson have both recently participated and enjoyed the fun.
Restoring the Potluck Magic
Picture
Remember our next potluck date on Sunday, April 23 as we get this tradition back into full swing. Bring a dish to share ranging from snack to side dish, casserole to dessert and partake in an amazing array of delights after Sunday service prior to our Annual Meeting.​
Bits and Bites
"Life is too short to knit with ugly yarn" was a favourite expression of the late Beverley Longford, a Peterborough Unitarian who passed away recently.  Beverley was a member of Don Heights back in the late 60s and early 70s before moving to Peterborough. 

APRIL 22 IS EARTH DAY
From action on climate change to showing respect for our natural environment, Unitarians fully embody the principle that the web of life connencts us all. What will you be doing to mark Earth Day?
