Care Committee Information
Co-chairs: Julia Peters and Pauline Mejia
Mission Goal
In hopes of becoming the beloved community that Reverend Martin Luther King Jr. spoke of, we support UUFB members and friends in coping with illness, death, and crisis as well as acknowledging special life occasions.
Strategies to Accomplish Our Mission
Encourage open communication between the other committees, the care committee and members of the congregation.
Encourage and support communication between the care committee members. The order of communication will begin with the minister to the chair/chairs, the care captains and the congregation
.
Occasions may arise where care committee members may need to meet to deal with a crisis situation in addition to the scheduled meetings. The minister and the chair/chairs will determine the need for an unscheduled meeting.
Information concerning the needs of members can come from the joys and concerns portion of the service, reports from other members, the chair/chairs or a request from a congregant.
The chair/chairs will relay the need to the care captains. The care captains will inform the neighborhood circles who in turn, will report and gather support in their circles.
The information will remain confidential unless instructed otherwise by the individual.
Duties of the care ministry will vary depending on the needs of the member. Duties can include calling or writing a member, visiting, providing food, or transportation.
Good Communication is vital to the success of our mission.

Habitat for Humanity Faith Build Project Update
UUFB is partnered with other Beaufort area faith groups on the LowCountry Habitat for Humanity’s Faith Build House, located at 2523 Mossy Oaks Road. So far, the frame has been constructed and the trusses are decked. The next volunteer work will be roofing, windows, and siding. The nature of the work will change as the build progresses.
Our assigned workdays rotate from Tuesday through Saturday once per week. Each 4-hour morning workday (before the afternoon heat), up to five UUFB volunteers will work together with volunteers from a rotating partner faith group. Working together will be a great opportunity to act on our values, to build relationship among our own members and friends, and a no-proselytizing interfaith experience. At this time, our assigned workdays run through July 2; more will be added later.
Those who are interested, and have not yet completed a 1-hour orientation program may attend the next session on Saturday June 8 at 10am, at the Habitat office (616 Parris Island Gateway). Please call Lee McSavaney 843-522-3500 at the Habitat office to attend - and let Tom Hlaban know.
Those who have completed orientation, can sign up directly for the 4-hour workday slots of their choice on
our Sign Up Genius page. Some have already been filled - but many good openings remain. Please sign up at least two weeks in advance of your preferred workdays. Specific details about each workday can be found there. If you have trouble accessing the page, contact Tom Hlaban and he can record your sign-up.
