ERUUF is more than a spiritual community - we’re also a self-governing non-profit organization with democratically elected lay leaders who set policy and guide the mission of our Fellowship.
Do YOU know someone who should be in ERUUF leadership??
Three groups of lay leaders are elected by ERUUF’s members: the Board of Trustees, the Healthy Congregation Committee, and the Nominating Committee. Elections occur at our Annual Meeting in late May.
Before the election happens there’s a lot of “behind the scenes” work that occurs. The Nominating Committee seeks referrals for candidates, talks with potential candidates and, for those interested in serving, conducts interviews. Finally, the Nominating Committee builds a slate of nominees to present to the congregation at the annual meeting in May.
The Nominating Committee has already started this work, and NOW is the time to suggest someone to be considered for the Board or the two other committees. Stop by our table during Coffee Hour on Nov. 17 to learn more or to make a recommendation, or send us an email at “”. Remember that you can recommend any member of the congregation, including yourself! We ask that you make your recommendations by December 15.
There are short descriptions of the leadership roles here:

Petition Candidates: There is a way to skip this entire process. Any ERUUFian who has been a member for at least a year may become a candidate for any ERUUF elected office by meeting the qualifications for that office and presenting a petition (form to be supplied by the Nominating Committee) in support of their candidacy signed by at least 15 ERUUF members. A completed petition for candidacy must be presented to the Nominating Committee at least 35 days before the election. Candidates nominated by petition shall be identified as such on the election ballot.
