All Souls Responds to Situation in Haiti
All Souls Community Church of West Michigan will respond to the
situation in Haiti. All Souls has organized a special collection for All
Souls to generously support relief efforts in Haiti through the work of
the UU Service Committee. In addition, on Valentines Day, bring a clean
teddy bear to the service, where the children of All Souls will collect
them, and will help
Blare Gooch, a Grand Rapids 7th grader, donate the teddy bears to
spread comfort and love to children in Haiti.
The Unitarian Universalist Association and the UU Service Committee have
launched a
joint earthquake relief fund to help the survivors. Working closely with
local grass roots partners, this fund will focus on responding to
survivors less likely to have access to aid, such as child domestic
workers, women single heads of household and people with AIDS.

For more
information and to contribute to this joint earthquake relief fund, go

In Memoriam

The Reverend Suzanne Meyer has long been a friend of All Souls Community
Church, filling our pulpit as our very first Mid-Winter Lecturer in
February 2006. During her time with us, friendships developed and ties
were established. Suzanne was a colleague of Rev. Dr. Brent Smith at All
Souls in Tulsa, and served UU Congregations in Atlanta, St. Louis and
Cheyenne. She was one of Unitarian Universalism's finest preachers and
writers.
Regretfully, Suzanne died on the afternoon of Jan 23.
The Cheyenne, Wyoming, UU congregation (http://www.uucheyenne.org/)
has set up the Suzanne Meyer Compassionate Assistance Fund at Well Fargo
Bank. Anyone wishing to make a contribution of any amount to this fund
may send a check or money order made out to The Suzanne Meyer
Compassionate Assistance Fund (indicating Donation Fund in the memo
section of the check) to:
Wells Fargo Bank
1701 Capitol Avenue
Cheyenne, Wyoming 82001
Contributions made to this account are a gift and are therefore are NOT
tax deductible.
I hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.
IN MEMORIAM A. H. H by Alfred
lord Tennyson
