UUCM Listening Sessions: Thank you for helping to shape the work of the church!

Fred Hulting, Board President

During November, December, and January, the Board held a series of open listening sessions that were attended by 45 members and friends of the congregation.  The purpose of these sessions was to gather input that will be used by the Board, Council, and Staff as they plan programs and initiatives over the next couple of years.

(Archive) In Person Worship and RE Have Resumed!

(Archive) We are pleased to share that UUCM reopened to in person worship and RE as of last Sunday. We will be building on our current safety practices by providing N95/KN95 masks for all RE classrooms and worship attendees who do not have their own. Thank you for your continued support and flexibility as we navigate this together as a safe, inclusive, and informed community.

The UUCM Board of Trustees and Rev. Lisa Friedman continue to strongly recommend the COVID-19 vaccine and booster for everyone that is eligible. (Please see the Community Section for financial incentives currently available in Minnesota.) This is the most important action we can all take for the safety of our community, especially our youngest children, and to address the strain on our health care system.

Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or if we can be of support in any way.
