 Welcome to the Wayne For Change Pride Festival! Join us at the Lakeland Unitarian Fellowship for a day filled with love, acceptance, and celebration. This in-person event is your chance to come together with the community and show your support for equality and diversity. Get ready for live music, delicious food, fun activities, and more! Let's come together to spread positivity and make a difference. Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to stand up for what you believe in. See you there!  

Join us to celebrate the Winter Solstice (Yule)  with ritual, music and refreshments.  

We are celebrating our 60th year with an OPEN HOUSE ! 

We will be dedicating our PEACE POLE  and  offering tours of our historic building, as well as collecting donations  for

•  Maui relief (monetary)
• Wayne Interfaith Food Pantry (food or monetary)
• Strengthen Our Sisters women’s shelter (clothes, household goods and monetary)

In addition, we are inviting the community to join us in starting two new endeavors!

• Lakeland Organic Gardening Group (LOGG) will offer members of the community the opportunity to take advantage of our established, fenced-in,  organic garden, by adopting a plot for a nominal fee. (All proceeds will go to Wayne Interfaith Network Food Pantry.) There they can grow their own organic produce for personal use with a raised bed and irrigation system.. 
• Navigators USA is a national, secular, non-gender based, alternative scouting organization that was created to include everyone, and to help each person develop their fullest potential without discrimination. LUUF would like to sponsor and help start a new chapter that will be able to use our building as a base. We need at least two interested leaders and five interested children to launch a new chapter. The children and leaders will have the freedom to run the Chapter according to what they think will work best based on their interests and ages.  There will be no special fees. Dues will be determined by the leaders to cover expenses. Uniforms will be determined by the scouts and scout leaders  Navigatorsusa.org 

 We will have exhibits with information about the above groups, as well as NJ Peace Action, UU Faith Action NJ, Unitarian Universalism, the history of LUUF, and the history of our building. 

Refreshments will be served.

We hope to see you there.
