5th Sunday Day of Service: Supply Drive for 13 Salmon Shower Project

Each church year there are 4-5 months that have a fifth Sunday. As part of our lay-led ministry, we will be using these Sundays to offer an alternative to traditional worship. In lieu of holding a service, either in-person or on Zoom, we will be organizing a group service project we can do together instead.

Our project for March 2026 is a supply drive for the 13 Salmon Shower Project. We will gather at 10:30 on Sunday, March 29th at the Center for Positive Aging for snacks, song, & fellowship. Project Coordinator, Larry Burt will collect your supply drive contributions. See the details below for more information about needed items. 

The 13 Salmon Shower Project

Based at First Unitarian downtown, the 13 Salmon Shower Project is open on Wednesday and Thursdays from 11 to 4 and offers unhoused individuals  a free and secure space to shower, rest, enjoy a warm drink and snack, get clean clothing, and experience refuge from conditions on the street. Based on compassion and an ethic of mutual care, the project seeks to build relationships between the church and our unhoused neighbors.

They are seeking the following items:

• Men's clothes, especially jeans/pants/sweats (30 - 36)
• Hoodies, sweatshirts, coats, and rain gear
• Boxer briefs - NEW (M, L)
• Women's underwear - NEW (S, M)
• New Socks

There will be NO regular Worship service this Sunday. We are gathering in-person for fellowship and to gather our supply drive contributions. There will not be an opportunity to join via Zoom.
