You may be familiar with the gorgeous Kente cloth stoles worn by the Beloved Community Chorus. Perhaps you don't know that they were handsewn by members of the ERUUF affinity group, Spiritual Threads.

The Eno River Singers are excited to debut their new stoles during the 11:00 AM service on September 15. Crafted from vibrant batik fabric, these solid-color stoles come in six different colors, allowing us to form a rainbow of voices on the chancel. The Eno River Singers want to express their deepest gratitude to Spiritual Threads for their generosity of time and for sharing their gifts. Special thanks to Marilyn Grubbs and Evelyn Studer for working with the music ministry to spearhead this wonderful project!

ERUUF Board Announces its Annual Vision of Ministry

Dear ERUUF Community,

The Board of Trustees has been hard at work, and we are excited to share with you the culmination of our efforts—the 2024-2025 Annual Vision of Ministry. The Board of Trustees augments and focuses implementation of the Strategic Plan yearly with its Annual Vision of Ministry goals. The Lead Minister, together with the Coordinating Team, utilizes the Board's vision as one guide for the planning of programming at ERUUF. This year, we have crafted a vision that speaks to the heart of who we are and who we aspire to be as a community:

• Create joy that fuels connection.
• Honor the legacy of our elders and the unfolding of our living tradition.
• Foster impactful and sustainable growth.

This guiding vision reflects our commitment to nurturing a vibrant and inclusive community, honoring those who have paved the way, and building a future that is both meaningful and sustainable.

We look forward to seeing everyone at the Connections Fair on Sunday, September 15. Be sure to visit our table. This will be a wonderful opportunity for us all to gather, connect, and explore the many ways we can engage with and contribute to the life of our fellowship.

We look forward to seeing you there and to the year ahead as we bring our vision to life together.

In community,
ERUUF Board of Trustees
