(In The Life Of The Church)
Easter
Town Hall
Hello Friends! This coming Sunday (5/1/22) after worship we will be hosting our quarterly Town Hall and I wanted to make you all aware! That way you can plan on coming if you’re available.
Town Hall is an important time. for all of us as community members to hear important information about what’s going on at UBC. The Leadership Team has some updates on where they are in the Pastoral Search Process, the Finance Team has some info to share about the financial life of our community, and staff has some updates about sabbaticals and reminders for the future.
We have a lot going on at UBC these days and we love being able to tell you about all of it! So if you’re in town and available all of our teams would love to see your faces on Sunday! Plus - we’re going to have a picnic afterward! It’s going to be so much fun! Hope to see you there!

Cesar Chavez MS Thank Yous!
We are gathering gift cards and notes for our teacher friends at Cesar Chavez MS! If you are able it would be very appreciated if you could buy one (or however many you can afford!) $5 gift cards to Sonic or Pinewood (or you’re favorite soda/coffee joint) and come drop it off at the church over this next Sunday! We are also taking them notes so if you want to write several notes that would also be appreciated! We’ll be taking them to CCMS the first week of May and we would love your help in making sure that every teacher and staff member gets a gift card! If you can’t be at church over the next two Sunday you can just bring them by the church and drop them off with a staff member!

This week after Church and Town Hall we are having a UBC Picnic! It will be a BYOF (Bring your own food) situation. So come join us as we have a lovely lunch together!
