U Matters - 25 Sep 2014

by Greg Anderson on September 25, 2014

This week the Committtee of Management brought the Union staff to lunch. We started our time with a brilliant Brenna "ice breaker." Now I know why youth group attendance is at an all time high, Brenna and her team make it a most enjoyable event. Then the COM had us play, "Here is my new best friend," borrowed from Walk to Emmaus. How great it was for leaders and staff to get to know each other better.

Union has a host of new attendees. Pastor Michele and her team are eager to connect them with us. Please take time after Sunday services to "break the ice" with someone you don't know. You might be meeting your "new best friend." That's the way God works, and he works through us.
