Annual Meeting - Sunday, June 7 |
|
Christina Fulton, Director of Operations & Finance
This year's annual meeting will be historical. We will be meeting via Zoom! By this time, if you are a voting member, you may have already received your warning in the mail. This year we will be voting on four items: 1) Approve the minutes from last year's annual meeting, 2) Approve the slate of nominations, 3) Approve a request from the Property Team to use Meeting House Fund money to do maintenance on the Meeting House, and 4) Approve the 2020/2021 Fiscal Year Budget. We need to have at least 45 members at the meeting to reach a quorum, so please plan to attend on
Sunday, June 7 at 11 a.m.
Having an annual meeting via Zoom is actually a bit complicated, but we have done the research and are confident that we can do this and do it well. Along with the warning, you also received some Annual Meeting Instructions. Please read these over now and become familiar with them. It is important that you have used Zoom on your device prior to the meeting. If you have not used Zoom before, please come to the Virtual Coffee Hour on May 24 or 31 to get some practice.
We look forward to seeing you!

Online Joys & Sorrows Submission Form |
|
While in-person services in the Meeting House are suspended due to the pandemic, we want to provide an alternative way for members and friends to share their Joys & Sorrows with the congregation.
An online Joys & Sorrows submission form is now available at this link:
forms.gle/zmw4z4mzjrPttrX37
. The link will also be in each week's eNews in the lefthand margin.
T
o share your joy or sorrow online, please use this form
to tell us in a sentence or two what is making you sad or happy or hopeful or...whatever. Joys & Sorrows will be read and collated weekly and shared in the service as much as possible. Since online services are available publicly on the First UU Society YouTube channel, we will not read full names or personal details during the service.
Thank you for your help as we experiment with this new online tool.
Rev. Tricia Hart, with the Membership Team, Care Network, and staff
