Dear UUs in America,

The Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Cookeville is a forty member <<<according to the UUA web site>>> congregation located in rural Tennessee. We were recently gifted a luxury resort vacation by a long time supporter and former member who moved to Arkansas. She has helped in the past to fund our modest, less than $28,000 per year, budget. This generous gift is very much appreciated. We currently meet in a rented store front and long for a church of our own. This is a great opportunity for some lucky individual to enjoy a luxurious vacation at a resort for a bargain price, and a chance to help fellow UU’s.

Inspired by an online raffle fundraiser at another UU congregation we developed a, no cost to us, raffle for this January 27-February 3, 2023 vacation in San Antonio.  All receipts will directly support our congregation.

Our treasurer, Sandra Jordan, and secretary, Carol Fleetwood, volunteered to ask UU congregations throughout America to consider spreading the word and buying raffle tickets for this fundraiser.

Thank you for reading this email.

If you would spread the word within your congregation we will be very grateful for that generosity.

Raffle tickets can be purchased via a link on our web site or by clicking on the link below:
