[Fuusm-l] Thursday 3/19 FUUSM Update

[Kat Hawbaker]

Being a Healthy Congregation	  	Thursday March 19, 2020

The Board has suspended all large group activities (Worship) at F.U.U.S.M.
The Office has limited coverage, so is not open for regular hours, but we are checking messages.
FUUSM leaders will continue to talk together to address the changing timeline.
We are deeply grateful for those who are checking on FUUSM members, friends and neighbors.
Much thanks to those who have mailed in their pledge forms and payments. 

The Caring Committee would appreciate the sharing of news or concerns with the committee 
directly, as we continue to focus on those most vulnerable.  Call, email, text or message us.
    
Sunday March 22, we will NOT hold a regular Sunday Service in the Sanctuary.
There will be a short service in the Courtyard @ Noon, celebrating the Spring Equinox.
Several committees are going to meet in person and via Zoom video conferencing for planning & coordination.  Your feedback is essential as we address priorities.
Current plans (under review) include Sunday April 6 for a limited service in the Sanctuary.

At the FUUSM Office and for other small groups, we will observe precautions in the ways we greet each other, maintain healthy spacing, and there will be no food served. 
Strict cleaning procedures will be used.
At this time, most groups and gatherings are being cancelled, with the exception of small group Committees or Task Teams and the Thursday night groups.

We will continue to offer communication updates in the Monday Weekly Update, and at the end of each week.  Please check the FUUSM-L email list; our website (www.fuusm.org <http://www.fuusm.org/>) or Facebook for the latest announcements, and alternative modes of engagement.
-Review the Email Guide attached (from Ralph Olander, Keeper of the Lists)
-Check to see that you can access the most recent Members & Friends Directory 2/3/2020.
-Practice navigating the website with your user name & password.
-Explore what other resources from UUA are available online, and tell us what you find helpful or interesting.

It is always your choice to come and gather, or decide to be abundantly cautious and not be present for any congregational events. People who are ill, or have a risk factor are advised to stay home. 	Help us be a healthy congregation.  If you have any concerns about exposure, please stay home, and let us know if we can do anything to help.
Home is where WE are.

Stay informed, wash your hands, practice healthy spacing, and keep caring about each other.  
All blessings, Rev. Kat
