Ministry Team

​

Ministry Team Mission Statement: Our mission is to support ministry of the church, ministry to the church, and ministry in the church.

OF the church: Ensuring that CUUB is following its mission and aligned with its values.

TO the church: Supporting the Minister's work by functioning as a sounding board and through feedback.

IN the church: Recognizing conflict and connection and promoting right relationships.
 

Draft Congregational Covenant: The Ministry Team has taken your words from recent workshops and woven them into a draft covenant that we hope captures our values and expresses how we want to be in community as members of this congregation. 

​

Draft Covenant 2023:

The foundation of our congregation is love, inclusiveness, and creating a sanctuary that offers grace with humility and forgiveness. We promise:

 

  • To honor our individual spiritual paths, our interconnectedness, and our shared UU values; 

  • To foster an intergenerational, welcoming community where all are respected, heard, and affirmed;

  • To extend grace to ourselves and each other while accepting responsibility for our words and actions;

  • To protect free expression and curiosity while communicating with compassion;

  • To respect our Bylaws and Rules which assist us in working in a community of diverse opinions and beliefs;

  • To cherish the well-being of the congregation above our personal preferences.

  • To serve as we are able to build the Beloved Community that co-creates justice and equality for all, within and beyond our walls.

​

Next steps will be coming soon!
