It is our goal as the Board of Trustees to maintain connections with you. To that end, we are beginning a new program entitled, “Reflections with the Board.”  We will host these sessions via zoom once a month at 10am before the service.  The purpose of these sessions is twofold:  One, we will often have information that we would like to share and two, these sessions are a time for us to listen to you.  We want to hear how you are, as well as your ideas, suggestions, and concerns.  

Our first session will be held on November 8th at 10am.  For this session, the Board will be inviting Dale Griffin, Carol Nielsen, and Connections Staff, Nia Tavoularis and Sue Loellbach to speak about the important work of Connections for the Homeless.  Please join us to hear about UCE’s history with Connections for the Homeless, the work that Connections is doing in our community, the Endowment grant that was recently given to the organization, and ways that our congregation can be more involved with this organization. 

Just for our first month, November, we will hold two sessions.  Our second session will be held on November 22 at 10am.  For this session, the Board would like to spend some time talking with you about Widening the Circle of Concern.   The Board has had our first discussion where we focused on the Governance chapter.  What questions and comments do you have about this chapter?  What have you been learning as you have been reading?  Please join us for this discussion. 

We hope you will join us in November and the following months! We look forward to hearing from you.  Please let us know what information you would like to receive from the Board at future sessions.  As always, if you have any appreciations or concerns, please contact us at BOT@ucevanston.org.
