Hello ERUUF,
We are sad to let you know that Melissa Smith, our Religious Exploration Coordinator, will be leaving her position at ERUUF in mid-December.
Melissa has been at ERUUF for a little over three years and we have benefitted from her mindfulness, attention, organization, spirit, and loving kindness in that time. We, both the adults and children, as well as her colleagues on staff who have had the wonderful opportunity to work with her, shall greatly miss her presence.
We will be planning to have Melissa back for a Sunday in January during RE where we can give her a more proper and loving goodbye. I will have that date for folks in the coming weeks!
In the meantime, if there’s anything you need in connection to Religious Exploration in general, I welcome you to get in touch with me at .
Change always (rightfully) brings grief, especially when it involves folks we care about. And know in the midst of that, I will be working on plans for making sure Religious Exploration is well supported at ERUUF.
Thank you all for your energy and care for ERUUF. And thank YOU Melissa for sharing your many gifts with us!
Rev Jim
