How to Get Involved

COMMITTEES provide an organizational framework and help BUU run smoother.  They create opportunities for members to provide service to our community. 

The Spiritual Nourishment Committee: provides programming that inspires and sustains us. Our major work is to produce Sunday Services. We also encourage and support the development experiences that touch us in meaningful ways like “Tea for the Soul”.  Contact Diane Farone

The Hospitality Committee:. Includes “Kitchen Wizards” for the Sunday Social Hour. Contact Kathy Cretan or Susan Amons.  Caring Clusters organized by Neighborhoods to provide support to members in need; Monthly Book Club Contact Ginie Lopez. Forums: Contact David Doyle;  and occasional Pot Lucks.

Each month BUU donates 50% of the Sunday Plate to one of those organizations. Some of the organizations we support provide services and shelter for migrant immigrants.  Contact Jan Lathrop
