Committee on Ministry
The purpose of the Committee on Ministry (CoM) is to strengthen the quality of ministry within the congregation. It serves both as a support group for our professional minister, Rev. Cynthia Cain, and as a communication channel between the congregation and the minister. Anyone with ideas, suggestions, or concerns about either of these goals is encouraged to contact Rev. Cain  or a member of the committee.

Pastoral Care Team
The Pastoral Care Team contacts church members to give temporary help to active church people who are in a crisis situation, such as illness, accident, or death in the family.  Team volunteers help out by providing food, or a ride, or help with housework, etc.  The committee tries to call on any one volunteer only once or twice a year.

Worship Aesthetics
The Worship Aesthetics committee takes care of the decor for the chalice table each Sunday, Operating on a rotating schedule so each person usually does one Sunday a month. Sometimes our designs try to reflect the theme of the service, and sometimes we just try to make a beautiful arrangement; always we strive to make the chalice table a focal point for meditation and reflection. UUCL is fortunate to have a group of decorators instead of having to rely on just one person every week (as many churches must do), because each decorator brings a completely different vision and set of skills -- to the table, so to speak! "Guest Decorators" are always welcome to volunteer.

Finance Committee
The Finance Committee makes budget and financial policy recommendations to the Board of Directors, and coordinates fundraising efforts.

Uniview Assembly Crew
The Uniview Assembly Crews could use a few more people to help stuff, staple and label the newsletter. All it takes is about an hour (or so) of your time once a month after the 11:00 service. It's easy and you get to meet and work with some great people.

Hospitality Committee
The Hospitality Committee welcomes the congregation at the Coffee Hour immediately after the services. We prepare coffee, tea and other drinks as well as a snack to munch on while visiting others, welcoming visitors or stopping by the information tables set up in the Fellowship Hall.
Some committee members arrive early enough on Sunday to prepare these refreshments and others stay to clean up. Our project is self-supporting. Donations from folks who enjoy the treats are how we sustain this program.

Publicity Committee
This committee assists in getting the name of the church, its principles and its activities out into the local community. Although an advertising or media background is helpful, we welcome all members of the church to join and generate creative ideas of telling Lexington about UUCL.

Technical Committee
The Technical Committee cares for all aspects of the computer systems in the church office, as well as the website. We meet monthly, or as needed when needed for a large project. The Technical Committee welcomes both people with technical computer backgrounds, as well as non-technical church members who can help us evaluate what functions are needed, usability, etc.
