UUCSC Pandemic Response – Board of Directors
Dear UUCSC Members and Friends,
At our November meeting the UUCSC Board of Directors reviewed the updated guidance provided by the Unitarian Universalist Association concerning in person gatherings. This guidance is grounded in Unitarian Universalism’s deep values. It takes into consideration our care and concern for the most vulnerable, inside and outside our congregation. It recognizes that we are part of an interdependent web and that our risk taking and our protective actions affect far more than just ourselves.
We agree with the UUA recommendations that all in person congregational activities must remain virtual until at least May 2021. This applies to worship, events, meetings, and rites of passage. Our highest values and commitments call us to refrain from in-person gathering until the COVID-19 pandemic is controlled. We will revisit this decision again at our March 2021 meeting. Please take time to read the full document published by the UUA.
Our staff continues to find creative and innovative ways to meet the needs of our community. We are most grateful for their ability to connect us during this difficult time.
Please do not hesitate to reach out to the me or members of the UUCSC Board of Directors with questions, concerns or ideas about how we may continue to keep our community safe and connected.
Take Care,
Natalie Herbermann
Board President UUCSC
