Dear UU Ministry for Earth Community,
As my tenure as Executive Director comes to a close at the end of this month, I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude and reflect on the incredible journey we’ve shared.
For the past two years, it has been my honor and privilege to serve UUMFE and work alongside a dedicated and passionate community. Just a few of our key accomplishments include:
- Co-facilitating the planning team for the Climate Justice Revival and creating the Revival worship materials – here’s a great summary video
- Securing $39,000 in grants from the UU Fund for Social Responsibility to support the Climate Justice Coalition – a group of ten UU organizations collaborating for climate justice
- Launching a curriculum for climate grief
- Developing more than 20 worship service and small group ministry guides focused on climate justice and seasonal celebrations
- Advocating for a climate smart Farm Bill in Washington DC with our partners UUSJ and UUJEC
These achievements would not have been possible without the unwavering support and hard work of our staff, board members, donors, and partners. Your commitment to our mission has been inspiring.
As I prepare to pass the torch, I am confident that UUMFE will continue to thrive and grow. I look forward to watching the organization’s continued success.
Thank you for your trust, your partnership, and for the opportunity to be part of this incredible community.
With deepest appreciation and warmest wishes for the future,
Rev. Kelly Dignan
Executive Director
