Why RRUUC?

As with many members, the Bazaar was my first volunteer experience at RRUUC when I joined the congregation in 2014. That first year I helped out in Women’s Clothing and was immediately hooked by the energy around the Bazaar. It is amazing to be one of hundreds of volunteers who work together to transform the building into a vast marketplace. The excitement is infectious and it is a wonderful way to meet other members. In 2015 my two daughters and husband joined me in volunteering and now as our fourth Bazaar approaches it is truly a family affair!
