Upcoming events at UUCSB & beyond

Share the Plate! April 2026

Each month, UUCSB chooses an organization to split weekly donations made by congregants during the course of Sunday services. As many of you attend virtually, we are providing an online venue for these donations.

This month, we ask for donations to be split between UUCSB's general fund and MUUSAN. From their website: https://www.muusan.org/what-is-muusan.html

The Maine Unitarian Universalist State Advocacy Network (MUUSAN) is a statewide advocacy and public policy network anchored in our Unitarian Universalist faith and animated by its principles. This legislative ministry links Maine's 26 Unitarian Universalist congregations to promote just, humane laws and policies in keeping with our UUA Seven Principles.  We welcome as partners and collaborators all those who share our values.

UU congregations and individuals are creating Advocacy Networks, including MUUSAN, because they realize that, vital as they are, worship services, good works, and study groups are not enough. In a denomination that is characterized by social activism, we are called to bring our values to bear in the public arena: in the State Legislature, the news media, the development of policy, and the pursuit of justice.

Saco/Biddeford Kit Making for the Unhoused

The immediate needs are for camping equipment.  And the need is right now.  Biddeford issued an eviction to folks camped out near town, and so they are being moved and losing all of their belongings and thus seeking encampment elsewhere.  For the next month the pressing needs are:

tents,

sleeping matts

sleeping bags

tarps

cooking stoves and gas

flashlights and batteries
