News from the NET - September 2023

The NET hopes you all feel rejuvenated and refreshed after the summer and recent bank holiday weekend. Certainly, we are all now well-watered!   

  

We are really blessed and encouraged by the number of UCAN Local Groups meeting in person this Autumn (see list below) with more in the pipeline - see here for all events.  

  

New Groups for London Region!  

We have now set up 6 provisional new groups in the London area. We are directly contacting all the lovely people who have expressed an interest in leading, hosting or joining a London group. We are also sending joining invitations to UCAN members local to each provisional group.   

  

Sign up to a group!   

There’s two different ways you can join a UCAN Local Group:  

  

  1. Log in to your UCAN My ChurchSuite account then head to ‘My Groups/Sign Up’ (UCAN & UCAN+ Members)  

  1. Head to https://www.churchadministrators.net/localgroups and click on a group near you to sign up.   

  

We warmly welcome church administrators and managers from every denomination. All our local groups are open to non-UCAN members too so do spread the word amongst church administrators you know locally who can join groups via the link above.   

  

No UCAN Local Groups near you?  

Would you be interested in pioneering a new group in your area? We’d love to support you in setting one up.

Could you be a Local Group Leader in your area?     

The NET are working hard behind the scenes to increase the range of local groups available across the UK. Our dream is for every church administrator to have an opportunity to be part of a group near to them – could you help make this happen?   

  

Do get in touch with us if you have a question about local groups. We’d love to hear from you!
