It's a new beginning . . . Congratulations. At our May congregational meeting, we decided to take a leap of faith together. We voted to move forward with a building and capital campaign; to hire a professional to guide us through the process; to move
forward on a particular idea, and to accept a plan for our property that was drawn up for us about 6 years ago. Whew! Dave Rickert, the UUA consultant who conducted a preliminary assessment visit in regard to our plans for our church, has been hired to help us prepare, plan and execute the capital campaign to add lifespan religious education space to our property. The Assessment Report outlines our
plan outlines the general path we will be taking over the coming year. We adopted the Architectural Program Statement; This statement is our bare bones ideas about what we want to do with the building. And we voted to accept the general site plan as a beginning template (below) that was developed for UUCT by Holmes Hepner Architects, who we contracted with back in 2000-2002 to develop a master plan for the layout and settings of any future buildings.
These momentous decisions were made in the space of a few short hours, after months, even years, of discussion and planning. Expect to see more information about the building plan and capital campaign over the next twelve months. Get ready to see
real progress on the cramped and inadequate space we now use for religious education! “Find your center and build from there,” is a quote I recently ran across that speaks to our building process. Having established what is most important to us – being a center for liberal religious education – we are now moving forward to
make that vision a reality. For questions or to volunteer for a committee, contact Ara Rogers. Continue to check this web page for more details.
