Committee on Ministry
The purpose of the Committee on Ministry (CoM) is to strengthen the quality
of ministry within the congregation. It serves both as a support group for
our professional minister, Rev. Cynthia Cain, and as a communication channel
between the congregation and the minister. Anyone with ideas, suggestions,
or concerns about either of these goals is encouraged to contact Rev. Cain
or a member of the committee. Current committee members are Dick Loeffler, Jennifer Crossen, Judy McDonald, Isaac
Joyner, & Elaine McDonald.
Worship Associates
The Worship Associates assist the Minister with our worship services,
and help plan and lead worship services on those Sundays when our minister
is not in the pulpit. This group will be especially active for the
next few months while our minister is on her Sabbatical.
Property Council
The Property Council is responsible for the maintenance and upkeep
of our buildings and grounds.
It recommends related purchases the our Board of Directors.
Pastoral Care Team
The Pastoral Care Team contacts church members to give temporary help to
active church people who are in a crisis situation, such as illness, accident,
or death in the family. Team volunteers help out by providing
food, or a ride, or help with housework, etc. The committee tries to call on any one volunteer
only once or twice a year.
Worship Aesthetics
The Worship Aesthetics committee takes care of the decor for the chalice
table each Sunday, Operating on a rotating schedule so each person usually
does one Sunday a month. Sometimes our designs try to reflect the theme
of the service, and sometimes we just try to make a beautiful arrangement;
always we strive to make the chalice table a focal point for meditation
and reflection. UUCL is fortunate to have a group of decorators instead
of having to rely on just one person every week (as many churches must
do), because each decorator brings a completely different vision and set
of skills -- to the table, so to speak! "Guest Decorators" are
always welcome to volunteer.
Finance Committee
The Finance Committee makes budget and financial policy recommendations
to the Board of Directors.
Uniview Assembly Crew
The Uniview Assembly Crews could use a few more people to help stuff,
staple and label the newsletter. All it takes is about an hour (or so)
of your time once a month after the 11:00 service. It's easy and you get
to meet and work with some great people.
Hospitality Committee
The Hospitality Committee welcomes the congregation at the Coffee Hour
immediately after the services. We prepare coffee, tea and other drinks
as well as a snack to munch on while visiting others, welcoming visitors
or stopping by the information tables set up in the Fellowship Hall.
Some committee members arrive early enough on Sunday to
prepare these refreshments and others stay to clean up. Our project is
self-supporting. Donations from folks who enjoy the treats are how we
sustain this program.
Fundraising Committee
This committee coordinates and helps plan the
fundraising activities of the
church.
Technical Committee
The Technical Committee cares for all aspects of the computer systems
in the church office, as well as the website. We meet as needed. The Technical Committee welcomes both
people with technical computer backgrounds, as well as non-technical church
members who can help us evaluate what functions are needed, usability,
etc.
