Unfortunately, the past year has seen an upswing in violence targeting UU and other progressive religious communities. Although we hope, of course, to stay safe here in Plattsburgh, we also believe in the value of being prepared.
***
To be better prepared, we hope a sizable number of you will sign up for one of the following two activities that will teach us how best to respond in the case of an active threat.
***
If you are able to attend one or both of these events, please let Rev. Nicoline know (minister@uuplattsburgh.org) b efore registering, so that we can plan to ensure various areas of fellowship life send delegates.
