The Building & Grounds team works to maintain and
improve the inside and
outside of our fellowship. We replace and
upgrade wherever is needed. We
encourage those interested and able to attend our
once-a-month work party -
usually on the last Saturday of each month, from 9
until noon. We do not
hold a formal meeting but discuss jobs to be done and
match those with the
talents available at the beginning of each work
party.

The
Sunday Programs
Committee helps provide programs for UUFLG services.

speakers for the Sunday services when our minister is
not in the pulpit.
Members of the committee act as Worship Associates
assisting the minister or
guest speaker during Sunday services. The Worship
Associates also assure the
sanctuary is prepared for services, and is responsible
for the decoration of
the chancel and sanctuary. Contact the office (admin@uuflg.org/408-358-1212)
for information.
This group is
open to
all women of the Fellowship and provides opportunities
for friendship and
community building. We talk about what is going on in

chosen by our discussion leader. We meet on the 2nd
Thursday of the month at
9:45 a.m. to noon in the West Room of the Fellowship
Building.
