Please join a celebration of Monique's time at UUCC on Sunday, Sept. 17, during Fellowship Hour.
Dear Members and Friends,
I’m writing to let you know that Monique Bergère has resigned from the church. She shared the following in her resignation letter.
“Over these past summer months, I have spent an extensive time in reflection and discernment over my years as youth advisor, educator, mentor and many other hats (!) at UUCC since I was hired as staff in 2013. This congregation and leadership has nurtured, supported, encouraged my spiritual growth and min-istry like no other. You have held me in your hearts, believing in me and seeing a ministry in me I didn't know was there! I feel that I am a reflection of all your goodness and love shared with me over these years of exploration, adventure and growth.
So, it is with some mixed feelings of sadness, gratitude and hopeful understanding that I have decided to resign from my position as Coordinator of Lifespan Faith Formation. I am being called into new directions and possibilities in my life that give me trepidation and excitement at the same time. I am ready to leap.”
UUCC has benefited from the many gifts Monique has brought to the community. The board and leadership will work together to consider what the needs of the congregation are now and will continue to keep you posted on next steps. We will also share the possible ways to honor her ministry with UUCC as we collaborate with her through this time.
Peace, Rev. Donna Dolham
