NEW This week – We’re seeking one or two people to train to create our worship slide shows using the online program Canva Making the slide show is one of our office administrator’s tasks – and we’d like to have a couple of backups for weeks that Ansley is out of the office.  After a couple of hours of training with Ansley, each slide show should take about 1-1/2 hours to create.  Please contact Ansley Knoch or Rev. Karen if you’re interested or have questions.

Our April theme: What does it mean to be a people of becoming?Our April theme invites us to consider the ever-ongoing process of change in ourselves and our world. 

Check-in question: What’s your vision for what the JRUUC community can become?   Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through. Where people fail is that they wish to elect a state and remain in it. This is a kind of death.– Anais Nin
