Report for Community United Church Annual Report from Lanie Dickel --------------------------------------------------------- Adhoc Group for the Communiweb During the fall 2002, the Community UCC adhoc website group began redesigning and revitalizing our website, nicknamed Communiweb, with its new URL http://www.community-ucc.org. It was soon realized that the church office staff needed to replace obsolete office equipment in order for them to be able to effectively utilize the web (such as easily and quickly uploading weekly communigrams, sermons, and monthly schedules, etc.). By the time of the annual meeting, new computers in the offices and a high speed DSL (*** someone help and give the meaning ***) internet connection should be in place. To date, we have redesigned the Communiweb home page and created unifying graphics for all web pages, which includes the church name, logo, rainbow ribbon, and the main menu buttons (with mouse highlighted list of sublinks). The "Staff" and "Music Program" pages are nearing completion. Ryan Munson has done a great job photographing the staff and some recent special events. Our Group intends to make a presentation on the Communiweb during a Sunday adult education class in March. The purpose of the presentation is to introduce the congregation to the redesigned website, to show its various features, and to encourage various groups such as Program & Mission, Women's Fellowship, Christian Ed, etc. to write short paragraphs (with photos?) which describe their purpose and activities. These writeups would then be incorporated into the Communiweb. Suggestions for additional features and/or further changes are always welcome.
