Every Sunday, we share half of our undesignated plate offerings with an organization that works toward our UU values. In April, half of the undesignated funds in the plate will go to Faith Linking in Action. FLIA, is a group of Bangor-area congregations working together to “go upstream” to address the reasons people are falling into and getting stuck in poverty. Participants include most major faith traditions in our region.

FLIA is actively involved with multiple local organizations, including the Greater Bangor Area Housing Coalition, Dignity First, Food AND Medicine, Right from the Start, and the Maine Association for the Education of Young Children. They also help organize the annual Interfaith Martin Luther King Service.

In February, we were able to share $371 with the UUSB Food Programs.

You can give to the collection plate through the UUSB website and Vanco or by mailing a check to the church office.
