Join our New Welcoming Team & Adult Programs Committee Initiative!
Do you believe in the transformative power of Unitarian Universalism and the importance of creating a warm, inclusive space for everyone who walks through our doors? We’re excited to announce a collaborative effort between the Welcoming Team and Adult Programs Committee to offer a six-part hybrid (in-person & Zoom) class and discussion group focused on nurturing a welcoming and engaging environment at our Fellowship.
This engaging program, designed by the UUA, will delve into:
- Current trends and best practices: Learn from experts and one another about effective strategies for welcoming new faces to our community.
- Transformative experiences: Explore how Unitarian Universalism can impact lives and how we can foster a sense of belonging for all.
- Building a welcoming culture: Develop practical tools and approaches to create an inclusive environment where everyone feels valued.
UU Institute course: Tending Congregational Life: Guiding the Membership Journey.
Here’s what makes this program special:
- Hybrid format: Participate in-person at the Fellowship or virtually via Zoom – the choice is yours!
- Interactive sessions: Meeting together, we will combine large group discussions with smaller breakout sessions for focused interaction and idea sharing.
- Diverse group: This program welcomes a vibrant community of participants from all areas of the Fellowship, including longtime members, newcomers, families, young adults, and individuals with a range of interests and experiences.
We’re seeking passionate individuals who are:
- Eager to learn and share their perspectives on building a welcoming community.
- Interested in participating in the entire six-part program.
- Enthusiastic about contributing to the planning, preparation, and facilitation (optional).
**The more interest we have, the more impactful this program can be! **
