CLF Leadership RFP Deadline Extended
In light of all that is happening right now with the spread of Covid-19, our team has decided to extend the CLF Leadership RFP deadline to midnight on Sunday, March 22nd. For those planning to submit a proposal, please feel free to contact us at search(at)clfuu.org if you have any concerns about meeting this new deadline.
Beyond this change, we will be moving forward as planned with our search timeline to conduct virtual first round interviews in April and finalist interviews in early June. In May, we will make a determination as to whether we can safely host finalist interviews in person, or if we need to move these interviews to zoom.
We also recognize that many ordinations planned for this spring are currently in jeopardy of being postponed. Please know that if you have been granted preliminary ministerial fellowship by the MFC but have not yet been ordained, you will still meet the requirement of having a minimum of one UU minister per proposal.
We hope you are all staying safe and connected (virtually) to loved ones and our faith community during these difficult times.
