Program Council Roundtables
|
Spirit and Witness
This Roundtable strives to support the overall health and well-being of the UUCY community and its members. We consider ministry as an ethic of care for which all members bear some responsibility, not just our ministerial team. Areas of support include the Committee on Ministry, the Worship Committee, the Music Committee, and the Care Committee. Who does your heart break for? This roundtable also manages our initiatives on:
|
Lifespan Learning and Connection
This roundtable emphasizes lifelong learning--children, youth, and adult--and oversees planning and programming that awakens the conscience, develops moral discernment, and results in divine living and right action. The scope of its oversight includes classroom learning, worship and reflection, age-appropriate social service activities, and spiritual development. It has a particular imperative to assure that children and youth are well integrated into the life of our congregation. |
|
Fiscal-Looking for a leader
Visionary growth of revenue and sensitive use of our resource of treasure toward achieving our Mission and Vision is the focus of this Roundtable. It plans for the stewardship of UUCY. Specifically, this is done through our endowment committee, our annual appeal, our fundraising efforts, and our rental program. |
Operations
The underpinnings of operations enable us to more efficiently and effectively focus on achieving our Mission and Vision. Technology, physical plant and grounds maintenance and care, security and safety, and assets inventory are all cared for in this Roundtable. |
