VALENTINE JAZZ SOIRÉE

Cheryll Mellenthin, Project Coordinator

We are people of love. Love shines a light on the life we share with others. Love compels us to treat each other with kindness and compassion. Love brings people from diverse backgrounds together, and it creates a sense of belonging. Love is accompanied by an equality-consciousness that fosters doing good work in our world. Love is the foundation of friendships; it brings us together as a community and elevates each individual act of love into a movement, a cause, the joyful ability to coalesce around the magic we can make together.

Love in the more recent times also means that when we plan for gatherings to celebrate all in our community, we do so with the intent that all are safely welcomed. It is in this spirit that we again offer our virtual Valentine Jazz Soirée! We’re offering locally sourced meal and dessert kits from Isthmus Eats to make at home. To accompany your delicious meal is a concert by the Michael BB Trio featuring a guest saxophonist, filmed in the beautiful Landmark Auditorium. Valentine Jazz Soirée is the kickoff to our 2023-

2024 Stewardship Campaign and it’s the perfect opportunity to share this evening of love with others! And once again, Rev. Kelly C. and Sam will host a Truffle-Making Demo live from the Atrium Kitchen! A must-watch how-to for the whole family.

Registration and Meal Kit Details are available on our website: fusmadison.org/valentine/. To get the Isthmus Eats Meal Kit of your choice, please place your order by Saturday, February 4. Our final order date is Wednesday, February 8. If you need help placing your order, please contact me, cheryllm@fusmadison.org. As we all know, making our intentions known is an important way to show we care. Your Meal Kits can be picked up Saturday, February 11, between 11 am and 3 pm, at the Atrium entrance. Music and Truffle-Making links will be in Red Floors and on our Valentine Jazz Soirée poster in the Commons. Questions, please email cheryllm@ fusmadison.org.
