Join us for an Open Questions Town Hall

Sunday, June 4, noon - 1:30 pm (light lunch provided)

In person only

On Sunday, June 4, we will be doing our Open Questions exploration for the second year. This is a process the Board of Trustees is utilizing to have congregation-wide discussions about what is important to us; the knowledge we gain from these discussions informs our annual Vision of Ministry.

The input we received from the congregation when we discussed last year’s Open Questions (“How can we be intentionally kinder to each other and make All Souls a “soft place to land” and “How do we make change and support others making change in the wider world?”) was instrumental in the development of our 2022-23 Vision of Ministry and Priorities:

Annual Vision of Ministry

Together we create transformative experiences each week that fuel people forward into their lives in the community, and then they come back for more. (“Catching the Glow”)

Priorities

• Creating Clear Paths of Connection & Belonging to Strengthen and Facilitate Fierce Commitment to Social Justice and Multigenerational Engagement
• Radical Hospitality & Inclusion
• Create a Culture of Healthy Conflict

It’s clear that the Annual Vision of Ministry we developed last year is rich and extensive enough that we are considering it to be a multi-year Vision. The Board may decide to tweak or concentrate on certain areas each year. What we need now, as we lean more into this Vision, is your input!

Please plan to join us on June 4 to be part of this process! Rev. Katie’s and the Board will share the service as we vision our way forward together. The service will be immediately followed by a light lunch and the Town Hall discussion. 

These are the questions we will be considering during the Town Hall:

1. What is helping you Catch the Glow this year at All Souls? 
2. What changes have you longed for? 
3. What are you willing to do to help others Catch the Glow?
