The Transition Team



A few words about the Transition Team

The Team's purpose is to ensure that our Interim Minister, Rev. Tracey
Robinson-Harris, has the best support and counsel that we can provide,
throughout the remainder of the time that she will be leading worship and
overseeing the work and vitality of our parish.

Tracey relies on the Transition Team to be her supplementary "sensory and
nervous system." We meet monthly to serve as a sounding board where she can
float ideas, test and refine her sense of the priorities of what the church
needs from her, and also to hear through us what we know of the
congregation's hopes, concerns, and reactions to events. To provide Tracey
with all the support and counsel that she needs to do her job well, the
members of the Team need to hear from you. Please be assured that while you
are always welcome to communicate directly with Tracey, if you have thoughts
or feelings that you are comfortable sharing through any of us, we are here
to help inform and advise Rev. Robinson-Harris in all her official
capacities.

On behalf of the entire Transition Team (Rudy Cepko, Marc Deshaies, Wendy
Innis, Michael Keating, Frankie Knapp, and Jay Lavelle), I thank you for
your continued interest and involvement in making this transition experience
at First Unitarian as rich and wonderful a learning opportunity as it can be
for us all.

David Spanagel, Chair
