Today on the Website

Hello everyone! Here’s your weekly dose of website updates:

  1. The Newsletter is available in your email and on the website.
  2. I’ve updated the Upcoming Sermons page for the next few months. (of course, those sermons are subject to be updated and/or change as time passes!)
  3. Added the latest sermon to the Recorded Sermons page

Not much else is going on this week. Don’t forget to check out the Summer Retreat page and register soon if you want to go! It sounds like it’s gonna be an awesome weekend. Until next time!

Ahhh…it’s so nice to be back into the regular flow of things –Well, at least until Summer Vacation, when I’ll once again be forced to steal my computer back from the kids every week!

But, I’ve done quite a bit of work this week, so make sure you check it out!

  1. Added a whole bunch of information about Indy Pride to our LGBT Justice Page, including the flyer with all the events listed.
  2. Posted Rev. Lynda’s latest letter to the Minister’s Corner.
  3. I’ve added a whole bunch of Volunteer Opportunities to the list on the website and Facebook. Check it out! I’m sure you’ll find something you’re interested in! (if the Facebook App gives you an unsecured page warning, just allow it. Facebook recently decided that all apps have to have a certified webpage attached to them, and I’m still working on fixing that.)
  4. The Newsletter, of course, is now available in your email and online. The events page is also updated. Wow, there’s a lot of stuff coming up!
  5. A bunch of upcoming events have been added to the calendar, as well.
  6. Actually remembered to upload the updated Upcoming Services page. Oops?

Until next week!

Indy Pride is Coming!

The 25th Annual Circle City Pride Festival is June 1-June 8. I hope to see lots of people there Standing on the Side of Love in support of the LGBT community! UUI marches in the parade every year, so if you want to do that, you can contact them for more information. Otherwise, show up in your yellow SSL shirts and watch from the sidelines, and then enjoy the Festival afterwards!

Hello everyone! I’m sorry this update is so late, but I’ve had a really crazy couple of weeks. But, things are finally back to some semblance of normal, so, without further ado, here’s this week’s web updates!

  1. Last week, before things went nuts, I added more information to the Retreat page, including a video provided by Annie Johnson.

  3. Better late than never! Last week’s Newsletter is updated and posted.
  4. I also made sure to update Rev. Lynda Smith’s letter on the Minister’s Corner page.
  5. Information about the 2013 Indy Pride Parade has been added to the SJC page.
  6. The UUCC Calendar has been updated as much as I can. 🙂

Hi everyone!

Didn’t have much to update this week.

  1. The big project is the Event Form that I’ll be implementing soon on the website. It’ll be a one-stop shop to submit your events to the calendar, newsletter, order of service, etc. So, watch this space for updates!
  2. The only other big thing I had to do was add the SWIMMING POOL WITH WATERSLIDE to the retreat information page. Yep, it’s so important that I put it in all-Caps! 🙂
  3. Oh, and don’t forget, the big, huge congregational meeting to pick the Ministerial Search Committee is coming up on April 28 immediately following the Service. You should get a letter in the mail with information on the meeting and candidates. If you don’t, contact the board.
  4. Other than that, I had to fix a few bugs that I forgot to stomp last week. Sorry for the gigantic pictures on the events page!

Hope everyone has a lovely week. I’ll talk to you all next week!

It’s Spring Break, so the weekly update is running a little late. (What, did you think my kids let me have the computer while they’re home?) But, anyway, without further ado, here’s this week’s updates:

  1. Have you followed the new UUCC Twitter Account yet? It’s not much, but it’s somewhere else to find out what’s going on with our congregation and UUs all over the place. 
  2. The newest Newsletter is now available in your email and online.
  3. Everything you’ve ever wanted to know but were afraid to ask about the upcoming First Annual UUCC Fun Weekend Retreat is now available for your perusal on the webpage.
  4. I added the write up and information about The Courageous Love Award our congregation gave to the Hendricks County Alliance for Diversity.
  5. Updated a couple of things on the Calendar, including the Upcoming Open Beltane (April 30) and The Annual Pool Party (July 21)

Well, I think that’s about it. Until next week!
