Vision and Mission Consultant to be Selected at August 6 Board Meeting
Your Board of Trustees is excited to announce planning for a year-long Vision and Mission project that will engage the entire congregation in conversations about who we want to be as a congregation, and what kind of world we want to leave future generations.
We have solicited written proposals from four very capable consultants and we have interviewed three of them. The next step will be selecting one of these consultants, which the board will do at the next board meeting on August 6.
We encourage members to review the proposals and listen to the recordings of our interviews with the candidates. You can find these on the Members Only drive under Board Special Projects > Vision Mission Project 2024-25. Here is the link: Consultant Proposals.
Please reach out to the Board if you have comments or questions, so we can be prepared to address them on August 6. Email: board@uuclb.org.
We will provide more information and other ways for you to participate as we firm up the plans.
Sincerely, your Board of Trustees,
Priscilla Ortiz (President), Maria Hanson (V.P.), Gina Stephens (Clerk), Edie Mickey-Slveria, Jonathan Sneller, Lisa Moore (Trustees)

DAYS’ programs focus on youth education and support, leadership and academic success, and community engagement. Through a holistic approach to helping youth and families of Long Beach, DAYS Long Beach provides critical support to members of our community to help build future success.
