August 2015- Ministerial Resident Diana McLean

It's official! As of August 1st, I'll formally begin to serve as your new Assistant Minister, in partnership with Rev. Howell Lind and Rev. Gretchen Haley on the ministry team for both the Unitarian Universalist Church of Greeley and Foothills Unitarian Church in Fort Collins. I'm delighted both to be part of that team, and to be serving these two dedicated Unitarian Universalist congregations. I look forward to our shared ministry together!

In the next couple of months, as we settle into the partnership between the churches, there will be several events for us all to get to know each other better. The first will be Sunday, August 16th, when Gretchen and I will share the pulpit for our first worship service in Greeley. Stay tuned for information about other events.

I've already had several meetings with Rev. Kelly Dignan, both individually and with Gretchen, to make this ministerial transition smooth for all involved. I anticipate keeping the same office schedule as Kelly did, so you will find me at the church on Tuesdays. Please continue making appointments when you need to see me, as you did with Kelly. You can reach me at minister@greeleyuuc.org or at diana@greeleyuuc.org, Gretchen at gretchen@greeleyuuc.org, and Howell at howell@greeleyuuc.org.

We, your ministry team, are excited about the coming year and the possibilities of the new partnership. Let's dream big about what Unitarian Universalism can be in Northern Colorado!

In gratitude,
Diana
