JOYS & CONCERNS
Please keep Ralph Phipps in your thoughts. Partial Note from Ralph: “My Multiple Myeloma has finally
attacked. I am at the University of Arkansas having it treated and am going through Chemotherapy for 3
or 4 weeks…It is too early to tell. I really believe I am definitely in the right place. Catching it early is also
a big plus. Emails are nice, but I may not answer them. I miss you all. I won't be going to SUUSI this
year.” ~ Love, Ralph
We send well wishes to Dick Toye who will undergo chemotherapy this summer.
We are keeping Ralph and Dick in our thoughts, and wish them renewed good health.
Congratulations to Jennifer Motl & Rolando Del Castillo on the birth of their baby boy, Matthew Rolando
Del Castillo, who arrived last month. He weighed 7 pounds, 8.5 ounces and was 20.5 inches long.

THE ANNUAL UUFF PICNIC will be held SATURDAY, JUNE 11, beginning at 4:00 p.m. at Patrick and Paula
Neustatter’s home. Jake Walther and his company, Southern Exposure Pyrotechnics will again put on
amazing fireworks display. Please consider making a generous donation to Jake’s tip jar, passed
around at the picnic, to help offset the cost of the fireworks. Cash and check are accepted and are most
appreciated! See the June newsletter for complete details.
AUCTION SUCCESS! The At Your Service Auction on May 14 brought in over $14,000 for the Fellowship.
Thanks to all of our auction volunteers, including our generous donors and bidders! The list of donors
and winning bidders will be available at the Fellowship soon, or contact Maryann Brown.
SUMMER RE PROGRAMMING BEGINS JUNE 5, 2011: There will be one multi-generational class at 10:
00 a.m. ONLY. There are no middle or high school classes during the summer, and no classes during
the 11:30 a.m. service. Middle and high school students are welcome to attend services with their
parents.
SUMMER OFFICE SCHEDULE: Our office administrator, Kira Bush, will be handling business from home.
Her last regular office hours will be May 31-June 2. She will be unavailable from July 24-30, and there
will be no announcements that week. Rev. Walter Braman will maintain office hours through June 9.
During the summer, he will be available for emergencies only. He and Kira will resume regular weekly
office hours on August 30.
THE MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE will be developing a Growth Plan in anticipation of the move to our new
home. This committee needs individuals who would like to share ideas on how to be ready for the move
and growth. Meetings will be kept to a minimum. If you have a vision on how to be ready for new friends
and members, please contact Nancy Krause.
THE MOOD SUPPORT GROUP is taking a hiatus across the summer. It seems that most of us feel better
in the longer sunlit days. However, Susan Ohle says that she is happy to be a contact person for anyone
who wants to set up something during the summer.
MARY WASHINGTON HOSPICE will once again offer the program, Remembering our Fathers: A Time for
Adult Sons and Daughters to Mark the Role their Fathers have Played in their Lives. You are welcome,
regardless of how long it has been since your father died. Last year several members of our fellowship
attended and found it meaningful. Hope they return! The program will be SATURDAY, JUNE 18TH, from
2:00-5:00 pm at Mary Washington Hospice. For additional information or to register please contact
Gloria Lloyd. ~The Pastoral Care Team
OUR SPECIAL THANKS to the UUFF members and friends who volunteered to work Bingo on MAY 20:
