Committee Chairs 2010-11 through 2017-18

Committees

2017-2018 assignments

September 1, 2017

The bylaws of the UUCC state, “…All Standing Committee Chairs shall be Members of the Congregation. No one shall serve for more than three consecutive years as chair of the same committee.” We will ask current chairs who have been in their position less than 3 years if they wish to continue. For those who are completing their 3^rd year, we ask for their input on possible chairs for the upcoming year.

NOTES & COMMENTS

As we’ve worked through assignments, we’ve realized that each committee is unique, and that sometimes there is a need for support and guidance for a committee. Sometimes there is a need for help in finding members, or assistance with clarifying the mission of that committee, or helping with agenda items. Some of those comments have been added.

Carita Barr, Member

Carita Barr, Member: Growing up in a Lutheran state-taxed church, I never was very religious. But 40 years ago, I heard about Unitarian Universalism through friends. I found a home here where this diverse religious community really works to better our world. Respect and honor for the “other” is the main ingredient in our cooperative efforts as a movement.

Dan Cook

Best Church:
Unitarian Universalist Fellowship

“A church where skepticism is welcome and adherence to dogma is suspect? A church where all religions are invited but none are beyond introspection? A church that regularly presents nationally touring singer-songwriters? A church where half the congregation might have been at Hunter-Gatherer the night before? Now that’s a church we can support.”

Linda and Richard McLeod, Members

We were looking for a church where we felt accepted both intellectually and spiritually, a place where all people and religions were regarded equally without condemnation. Our search began at UUCC six years ago and we never had to look any further. We found our place here with a community of like-minded people and it became our second home, our second family.
