We continuously strive to be more inclusive and offering closed captions during our Sunday service is one way to achieve that goal. Beginning, Sunday, November 22 closed captions will be available.

As a result, we have updated the Zoom link for Sunday morning worship. Join our 10 AM Sunday service via Zoom using the link below : https://zoom.us/j/916053330 Meeting ID: 916 0533 3040

The closed caption option in Zoom can be activated through the tool bar by clicking the the “pull down arrow” on the “CC Closed caption button.” Choose “show subtitles” from the choices provided to turn captions on.

Need your captions text size larger or smaller?

1. Once subtitles have been turned on, you can choose your text size by clicking the “pull down arrow” next to the “video button” on the tool bar — choose video settings from the options provided.
2. A pop up window will appear – on the left side list, choose “Accessibility.”
3. At the top of the window you can choose your text size.

This has been a year where racial justice has been on our hearts and minds, and many people are looking for ways to respond.  Our Board of Trustees, Race for Justice Action Team, and our church Youth group believe this is the time for our church to speak out about its commitment to, and vision for, where we want to go next as a church in our journey toward racial justice.  To that end, we are hosting a 1 hour zoom session to collect your ideas so they can serve as the basis for a proposed congregational statement of commitment for racial justice.  The statement will be voted on by the congregation, and it needs to reflect our congregation, so we encourage all members to attend this meeting. 

TheZoom meeting will take place on Sunday November 15 from 11:15AM to 12:15PM. 
     Join Zoom Meeting:  https://zoom.us/j/91602265160
     Meeting ID: 916 0226 5160

After a short introduction, members will be placed into small chat rooms to discuss the following questions:

• How do our UU values call us to do the work of racial justice?
• What does our church want to be known for in the work of racial justice?
• What specific actions should our church take for racial justice?

Following small group discussion, participants can provide written responses using a quick, easy format. The information will later be used by the Race for Justice Action Team to draft a congregational statement of commitment regarding racial justice which will then be presented to the congregation for consideration.

Questions?  Contact Christie Anderson at [email protected],  or Mary Ann Stephens at [email protected], co-chairs of the Race for Justice Action Team.
