Hello, and Happy Earth Day to all,

Thank you to all who were able to make this past Tuesday evening's
Committee of Chairs meeting or sent in committee updates to be shared.
Meeting recordings are available at the links below for anyone who was
unable to attend (or who'd like to watch or listen again). Feel free to
share these links with members of your committee or any other UCM
members/friends. An agenda of the meeting can be found here

The Zoom Chat from the meeting is also pasted below.

Sue Stukey wanted to share one correction to what she shared on behalf of
the Stewardship Committee. The total # of pledges made in last year's drive
was 176 not 191.

And, this is the resource I mentioned at the end of the meeting which
provides helpful guidance for us as a congregation on how to discern our
way forward into a "multi-platform" future:

Thank you!
