TOPH’S POST
Hello UBC Family,
This has been an exciting weekend in the life of UBC, and it was good to see so many of you at Lovefeast Saturday night, and church on Sunday. We hope you have had the opportunity to meet Andie Pellicer and her family this weekend or had the opportunity to tune in on-line Sunday. We (the Pastoral Search Committee and Staff) have been looking forward to this weekend for some time, and we have loved the energy felt among the community this weekend. We would love to hear your thoughts on the weekend, and your thoughts on moving forward with Andie Pellicer as UBC’s next Lead Pastor. The PSC has created a survey to collect those here. This survey is your opportunity to share your voice, and will close at 9am tomorrow morning. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to any staff member, Leadership Team, or the Pastoral Search Committee.
