Discover the joy of knitting and the warmth of community by joining our Weekly Knitting Group. All are invited, whether you’re a seasoned knitter or a complete novice. Bring your own knitting projects and let your creativity flow in the company of kindred spirits.

It’s not just about crafting but forging connections, sharing stories, and supporting one another. Knitting has a way of bringing comfort, both through the soothing rhythm of stitches and the bonds we build along the way.

Come join us in Walker Hall (upstairs) and be a part of this wonderful group, where your skills and passion are celebrated, and where every stitch is an opportunity to knit our community closer together.

Blood Drive
2024-07-02 10:00 - 15:00 | WI
Today, we will roll up our sleeves and help save lives. We will proudly partner with the American Red Cross to hold what we expect to be the first of many blood drives. The Red Cross has over 135 years of experience providing humanitarian aid including more than 75 years of supplying blood to those in need.

Each pint of blood we collect can help save up to three lives and will touch the lives of so many more. What a great way to pay it forward and make an impact on people in our community and across the country. We are very excited about the drive and I hope you are too.

There are many ways you can help, but most importantly we hope you come out to donate. It’s not every day that we do something that has such an impact. Let’s blow this out of the water! Thank you for making First UU Church of Wausau what it is. We look forward to seeing you at the blood drive.
