Media Resource Center
December 2021
Thank you!
To my dear friends in the Upper New York Conference,

After 26 years with the North Central and the Upper New York Conference, I will be retiring from my position at the Resource Center and Archives Assistant effective January 1, 2022. I have thoroughly enjoyed working for the United Methodist Church and have literally, hundreds of people I now call my friends. It has been a very satisfying experience for me personally and I’ve always felt “at home” since the first day I began part-time in November of 1995.

It has been an extreme honor to serve in this ministry for so many years and a job that I’ve never gotten tired of, or bored with over the years. I’ve met so many wonderful people during my many years with the Church and hope to be able to still be in contact with many of you after my time here is through.

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for all your years of patience, understanding, and friendship.
UNY Media Resource Center needs your support
The time has come for me to say goodbye. After 26 years with the North Central and the Upper New York Conference, I will be retiring as of December 31, 2021. The ongoing plan for the Resource Center is to have a volunteer committee oversee the purchasing of new resources, but we need your help. 

Since the Upper New York Conference Media Resource Center does not have a budget for 2022 to purchase new resources, we are asking churches who have benefited from this ministry to support it with a financial contribution.
 
The committee for the Media Resource Center is asking if you could donate at least $100 toward purchasing new resources next year. If your church can contribute more than this, we would be grateful for your additional generosity. Your help is vital to keep this mission active and current. Click here for a letter from the committee.
 
You can make your check payable to the “Upper New York Conference,” and note it is for the “Media Resource Center” on the memo line. A gift by the end of the year would help us purchase Lenten resources for next year. Checks should be sent to The UNY Conference, 7481 Henry Clay Blvd, Liverpool, NY 13088.
