Letter from our pastors

Dear Friends,

We have been with you now three months! Even though we knew ‘bridge pastor’ would be a short term assignment, we have felt your warm welcome and embrace of our ministry. It has not been without challenges, of course. We are learning to work together and get to know you, while recognizing what a fleeting time this may be. We have discovered your wonderful energy in bringing people together and your continued commitment to reach out to the community and beyond as followers of Jesus. In other words, you have helped us to feel a sense of belonging, even in and for a very short time! As we talk with people who are our guests in worship, or who stop by the office, or even who are long- time members, one common theme is the need to belong, to be a part of something greater than ourselves. What helps you feel that you belong? How have you experienced that at CUCC? Where would you like to encourage our congregation to grow in creating a place of belonging? At our November Wednesday night fellowship (Turkey and Gratitude), we’ll have a chance to share food and conversation, paying special attention to what it means to belong. Please join us!
With you in service,
Carol and Tony
