Committees are the life-blood that "makes our church work." We rely on the dedication and commitment of our members and friends as we are a lay-led congregation (without a minister). Committee involvement is a great way to get to know others and to develop bonds as we roll up our sleeves and work together.
Following are the MCUUF committees for the 2008-9 church year. The frequency of meeting times varies from monthly to quarterly. Meetings are held at a variety of locations. Contact mcuuf1@gmail.com for further information.
