Adult Spiritual Exploration (ASE) ~ Fall Update

The ASE Team anticipates a year of exciting opportunities determined by YOU, the congregation! Our interest survey is now live, with an online version here. Paper copies will be available at the Welcome Table on Sunday mornings, September 14th and 21st .

We invite and entreat you to please fill out a survey form indicating which of many possibilities – from writing a sermon to taming your cell phone – you find intriguing and compelling. The sooner you fill out your survey, the sooner we can schedule your favorite program!

A new Small Group Ministry circle will be formed this month, to be facilitated by Maryann Ludlow and Danner Friend. They will meet on first and third Thursday evenings at 6:30 PM at UCM, starting October 2nd. There will be 8 sessions, ending in January. Watch for sign-up notices beginning September 14th , the date of our first regular fall church service.

Two ongoing Seasoned Souls groups would love to welcome new members. One meets every Tuesday at 10 AM in members’ homes; the other meets on alternate Wednesdays at 10:30 AM on Zoom only. Please contact Judith Hinds to be connected with the group of your choice.

And, be sure to browse the UCM library if you’d like to do some spiritual exploration in the comfort of your favorite reading chair!
