Sunday, June 4 | Save the Date: First Universalist Annual Business Meeting!
This year we will be conducting the meeting in a hybrid format, in-person and Zoom to include everyone. Our church’s bylaws require us to meet each year to approve our budget and appoint our leaders. In addition, this year we will be deciding on two major issues: the focus of our church’s Social Justice Initiative, “Housing for All”, and the allocation of funds from a recent bequest for a new Membership Initiative. Full participation of our membership is important! More info will be coming your way about the specific start time. —Steve Munson, Board President
