Dear Friends,
We have a lot to be grateful for here at Greensboro Church. Our forebears who built this church created a rich foundation for us to work from. Just as we honor those past roots, it is equally important to look forward. One way we do that is to increasingly rely on more efficient tools in our office, including digital resources. That is why we have made it a high priority in recent months to create a website for the church. [Our address is www.guccvt.org .] Our website enables us to communicate with Members, Associate Members, building users, and those who want to learn more about us. As such, we would like to encourage you to not only to take a look at our website if you haven’t already done so, but to make a habit of using it regularly when you need information or want to keep in touch. Some of the website’s helpful functions include:
Scheduling. If you want to reserve the building for an event, the best way to start is to click, “News & Events,” then, “Calendar,” to check availability for a certain date. Then email or call Cassandra [at gucc@guccvt.org; or at 802-533-2223] to make the reservation.
Announcement of events. On the front page, you will see our Announcement box where we post upcoming events and special services. You can also find links to important documents, such as the 2009 Annual Report, and basic worship and music information.
Recent events. We are building an album of photographs from special times in the church’s life, such as Bronwyn Potter’s retirement reception, or Cabin Fever Follies. If you have photos you’d like posted, bring them to the office on a thumb drive or CD, or email them to gucc@guccvt.org.
Newsletters . Did your newsletter get lost in the mail, or worse, lost in cyberspace? You can find copies dating back to early 2009 under, “News & Events.”
Sermons. Most of my sermons are being posted online. Just click on “Ministers Messages,” then “Sermons.”
Grant applications. You can find all applications and guidelines for our scholarship fund, camperships, or The Pleasants’ Fund.
Boards & Committees. We keep an updated list of who is serving as chair of what committee, to make it easy for the membership to keep in touch and communicate about critical church issues.
As we draw closer to Holy Week, and then our busy summer season, we hope that you will make regular use of our website as a way to keep in touch, keep abreast of what we’re doing, and communicate with the church office. We look forward to seeing you all online, but most especially-in person–in the coming days and months.
God’s blessings to you all,
Tony Acheson
