Unitarian Universalists Helping Blue Star Moms Help Troops
Blue Star Mothers of the Canyons have been chosen by Unitarian Universalists as the recipient of the Third Sunday Special Collection for the month of January, on the 18th. The Blue Star Mothers will use the gift to assist with postage for their "Hearts And Hugs From Home" boxes to be mailed to the troops in Iraq and Afghanistan and other places for Valentines Day.
Since the tough times of World War II members of the Blue Star Mothers have volunteered to work in hospitals, train stations, packed care packages for soldiers and have been a working part of homeland security during times of war.
The organization not only serves as a support group for military mothers, they also support active duty and veteran service personnel and their families, our wounded warriors and their families, as well as the families of our fallen heroes. In addition, their mission is to promote patriotism, assist Veterans organizations, and serve in an educational, social, patriotic, and service capacity in order to help our country remain strong. They are a non-profit, non-denominational, non-partisan organization.
Unitarian Universalists (UU's) draw upon the teachings of many of the world's faiths to help individuals build their own theology. They hold services each Sunday at 10:30 AM at the SCV Senior Center, 22900 Market St., in Newhall, 661-254-7866.
