Zoom Ordination of Our Beloved Michelle Ma
Sunday, May 31 – Gather at 3:00 PM

Please join us in this unique way to perform one of the most important traditions of our faith. Our Board of Trustees has decided to ordain Michelle Ma into Unitarian Universalist Ministry. Her call to ministry grew from her relationship to our congregation, and we are delighted to perform this rite of initiation, transforming Michelle from a layperson and initiating her into the community of clergy, Reverend Michelle Ma. Direct questions to Laila Ibrahim at LDIbrahim@gmail.com.
