We hope you are surviving the deluge – not just of the watery kind but the onset of an eventful season full of mission and ministry opportunities, from Light Parties through Remembrance, to the joy of Christmas then welcoming the New Year. Just remember the ‘sustaining power of the pause!’(September mailing)
Yet many UCAN Local Groups have found the time to meet in October and early November, with still more meetings to come this month. Thank you for embracing our Local Groups network with energy, support, and fellowship for one another. A big thank you to group leaders and hosts who help make this possible.
We truly celebrate the growing number of Local Groups and gatherings – see below for details!
New Groups!
One of our provisional London groups, West London, is now permanent and has just held its inaugural meeting! We are encouraging our other 6 provisional London groups to arrange a first social meeting soon so do keep the flow of new sign ups to these groups coming!
We are also delighted to announce that the Oxfordshire Local Group, which has been dormant for a little while, now has two new leaders! Click here to join the group and be the first to find out when they next meet.
Do get in touch with us if you would like to explore leading a group in your area.
Making the Most of Your Membership
A reminder that if you are a paying member of UCAN, you have access to our ChurchSuite. Click here for a short tutorial on navigating UCAN’s My ChurchSuite, including how to find and join a local group.
(You don’t have to use ChurchSuite in your church to access this and will have been sent details of how to login when joining UCAN. If you don’t have or can’t find your login details, please contact us via: network@churchadministrators.net)
Upcoming gatherings:
15th November – Bristol
16th November – West Midlands+ (for senior managers)
Head to My ChurchSuite/My Events or www.churchadministrators.net/events to find out more and sign up to come!
We are now beginning to add 2024 gatherings to the UCAN Calendar! We would encourage all our groups to start thinking about their next meeting dates and do please let us know as early as possible, so we can help you publicise them.
As always, we are here if you have a question about Local Groups. We’d love to hear from you!
