From The Executive Operations Director

It is exciting to be a part of all of the activity and forward momentum at UCE. New leaders are emerging, long time members are stepping into significant roles, pledge drive, ministerial search and capital campaign are setting the stage for an even brighter future.

Members and pledging friends will be receiving a letter shortly with information about how you can make your pledge for the 2019-2020 fiscal year. There is so much to be grateful for at UCE, so many programs, a new settled minister on the horizon, community events, social justice work, not to mention meaningful worship which enriches our lives and reminds us to go out in the world and keep striving to make it a better place.  All of this happens through the hard work of staff and volunteers. Our building provides a safe and comfortable place for us to do this good work. All of this requires generosity on the part of members and friends of UCE.

Julie Milner is this year’s Pledge Drive Chair. This year’s pledge effort will be an abbreviated process with a letter and information followed by testimonials and reminders of why everyone should support UCE and raise their pledge. At the end of the drive on March 31 there will be a celebration. The theme is “Engagement”

Watch your mail for your letter and join us each Sunday to be reminded of why financial support is so important to keep the Worship, Music, Religious Education, Great Staff, Social Justice Work, Care of our Building, and the many events and meetings that support why we are in this community.

Thank you for your part in keeping us strong and thriving.
