In building our Beloved Community together, sometimes we need to ask for help — and sometimes we can offer it. After all, the congregation’s affirmation ends with “to help one another.” And that’s why we have the PCUU Care Team.

Our Care Team evolves to meet changing needs and depends on volunteer availability.
