UUtopia Report – Zyzzy

  • As suggested last time, I looked into boosting Luna’s prim allowance. Turns out you can’t do that for one parcel, so I bumped everyone’s prim allowance up by 20%. That leaves us with a healthy margin still.

Outreach – Et

  • Not much.

Library Report – ?

  • No report

Thursday
Worship Report (Et)

Here is the upcoming schedule for Thursday services through the end of 2025. Note the color-coded blocks. Please double check the schedule for accuracy and availability. (Zyzzy, ?Zoe?, Etaoin, and ?Raven? are in the regular rotation. Other volunteers are welcome!)

Aziza has expressed interest in continuing with some services.

Zoe needs to switch away from leading evening services and take on one Saturday per month, instead. She led on Saturday, the 12th of July, and will continue leading the second Saturday of each month to give TED a break. Raven is no longer in the regular rotation, for the foreseeable future. In reassigning services, we’ll want to take note of Pagan holidays.

Marion Foxpaws sent a note expressing leading Thursdays. 25 years of pulpit experience RL. After returning from vacation in August.

Please make sure the google calendar reflects who is actually leading the service, that is how I know who gets the stipend!

Saturday Service – TED

I much appreciate Zoe helping with Saturday. I’ve been working with Sonic on his service that he wants to lead. Time invested is helping him figure himself out, I think.

Saturdays alternating Open Topic with a subject homily works well. European participants, a few regulars. Good discussions and company, worth doing. Possible co-leader?

Consideration: Moving time? No – consistency works better

Boilerplate by TED, then Homily by another may work

Future discussion: Rotation for Saturday service.

Continuing business

  • FUUCSL futures document. Please add to the discussion.
  • Sermon Library starting, a few years available just outside the Library, kind of hidden for now (look just to the west of the building, along a small hill).

New Business

  • Next month: Sanctuary re-design (shape of space, seating options, circle seating, firepit, pushbutton options, temprezzers?)

Next meeting: August 28 at the little meeting circle near the sanctuary.

The meeting was adjourned at 5:59 pm SLT.
