We have been exploring our purpose and mission during this interim ministry period with Rev. Karen’s grace and guidance. Before we closed our doors last March, a group of us met to share our hopes and dreams for the children’s religious education program as we look towards calling a new minister. We had many insights and ideas! Now, as we consider the future of the program post-pandemic, we need your input more than ever.
Rev. Karen, Rev. Eileen, and I want to hear what is on your heart and mind, as we consider different models of family faith formation centered around the questions:
“What is the role of a faith community in your life and your child(ren)’s lives?”
“How can we create together a truly multi-generational faith community which is mutually supportive and thriving?”
We are aware of how overstretched you are. We know that time is precious, and we want to respect yours. We hope that you feel motivated by love for this congregation and the religious education program at UCE rather than by onerous obligation. We are hopeful that, together, we can discover our collective passions, values, and investments as well as the obstacles that get in the way of living into them.
Mark your calendar for ONE of the following virtual gatherings:
- January 9 – 10-11:30a
- January 16 – 1-2:30p
- January 17 – 2-3:30p
A link to register will be in next week’s newsletter. Zoom info will be sent out to those who register.
We look forward to seeing you there!
In Faith,
Kathy
