Well, even if deanh hasn't logged on all this time, this is the most activity we've ever had since this group started! Maybe we should invent some imaginary people who join this group and have some conversations going, eh?

deanh hasn't logged in to chess.com since December. Kinda like some churchgoers who... you know, just stop coming.

Perhaps the fate of this group is emblematic of Unitarian Universalism in general: more people might be a part of it, if only they knew about it... and if only we did a better job of letting the world know we're here.

I had no idea my note got cut off. Anyway, that was a wonderful way to start a relationship. I got to know the core of the church (a small church to begin with) and by the time regular services started in September, I was ready to become a member.

I attended a UU in a wealthy suburb near me, Shaker Hts. when my kids were young, but not being wealthy I didn't join.

I see we have a new member. Hello, deanh! We're pretty quiet here so I hope you'll add some chat and merriment. For starters, why don't all of us tell how we came to be UU's?
