Beyond Categorical Thinking Workshop Day 1

November 18, 2022 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Your Ministerial Search Team is hosting an important workshop this coming Friday and Saturday titled “Beyond Categorical Thinking” (BCT). This three-hour conversational Zoom seminar will be conducted by Gil Guerrero and the Rev. Donna Dolham of the Unitarian Universalist Association; its purpose is to help us to move beyond our assumptions, both spoken and unspoken, about what our future minister should look like. The BCT program is designed to promote inclusive thinking and help prevent unfair discrimination in the search process for a new minister. In the workshop, UUCUC members and friends will:

  • Consider the hopes, expectations, and concerns they have for a new minister
  • Learn more about the ministerial search process, and
  • Explore how thinking categorically about people sometimes interferes with choosing the best candidate.

The selection of a minister is important, and the Beyond Categorical Thinking workshop is another opportunity for everyone in our congregation to be a part of that process, so please register now to let us know you’re coming. The workshop will be held in two parts; it’s great if you can be at both but you can attend either one if that is all your schedule allows. The dates and times are:

  • Friday, November 18th, 7:00 – 8:30 PM
  • Saturday, November 19th, 10:00 – 11:30 AM

All sessions will be on Zoom (we’ll send you the link when you register). We look forward to seeing you there!
