First Universalist’s members and friends were invited to help shape the church’s future by participating in Capital Campaign Focus Group presentations and conversations held between October 9 and 30, 2016. More than 250 people attended one or more sessions and provided questionnaire and oral feedback. Following are selected PowerPoint slides from the Focus Group presentations.

An Executive Summary can be found here.
A 5-year Strategic Plan was created in 2012 which became the basis for a vision articulating ideas for making 3400 Dupont a home for enhancing the church’s ministry. Working together – congregants, Board of Trustees, staff and ministers – evaluated potential solutions for each of the four initiatives.
The preliminary plans and cost estimates that were presented generated positive feedback which has been shared with the Pre-Design Team for further refinement. Our estimated needs are $6.4 million. The goal of this campaign is to meet with every single member of the church, and invite them to support the campaign, mission, and vision of the church.
First Universalist’s vision is an extraordinary opportunity to be a church for the 21st century…a church for today, tomorrow, and future generations.
