A call for questions ...

A call for questions ... and comments, thoughts, concerns and listeners who would just like to be kept in the loop about all the happenings at Sylvania UCC during the transition period. Much is going on right now in the life of the church and perhaps you've wondered what the status is of the various committees' work.

Our moderators, Sue Crescitelli and Russ Miller, are providing us with the opportunity to learn more about where we are on the journey, what progress has been made and what to look for in the months to come at a church-wide forum to be held Sunday, June 3, following the 10:00 am service. 

In Russ' words:

June 3 Congregational Forum -- Given the various processes and projects under way at this time in our church, congregational leadership felt that an open forum for the congregation would be timely and helpful to update the congregation on these various matters, and to seek input on those various matters. Accordingly, an open congregational forum has been scheduled for Sunday, June 3, 2012, following the 10:00 a.m. service.

At that time, representatives of Search Committee, Transition Team, Visioning Team, and Open and Affirming Study Group will be present to provide a brief update on the status of their efforts. Following each update, the forum will be opened for questions or comments on each respective area. The purpose of this forum is to provide and obtain information. This is an opportunity to include the congregation in the on-going conversation about issues of current concern to the membership. As matters requiring congregational approval are finalized, other opportunities to discuss final recommendations will be provided, and formal meetings will be scheduled to formally consider these matters.

Your attendance and participation on June 3 is encouraged.

Thanks to Sue and Russ for organizing this forum and providing us with the opportunity to share our thoughts. Hope to see you there!
