February 3rd, 2023
Dear Members and Friends of FirstU, 

I want to let you know that Neo Yaxley is no longer our Director of Religious Exploration. For over four years she served us, our families and our children, with heart and grace. And, as you well know, these were trying years for all of us, especially programs for young children. 

I trust you will join me in wishing Neo well in the next chapter of her life. We will miss her. 

I've been in close touch with our other childcare staff and our volunteers in our rejuvenated programs: Coming of Age, Our Whole Lives and Mystery Pals. The start of CoA will be delayed slightly, but the other programs are continuing as planned. The volunteers that are making that possible deserve our thanks and support. 

Plans for the next steps in how we can best staff our Religious Exploration program have begun and will be communicated to you as soon as is possible. 

The future remains bright for us at First U, both upstairs and downstairs in our programs for children and youth. 

In shared faith, 
Rev. Eric

"We acknowledge that our campus is located on traditional, unsurrendered and unceded Algonquin Anishinabeg Territory;
and that the work of reconciliation is a responsibility of our congregation, and of all Canadians.  "Our goal is to educate ourselves and all
who have ears to hear, to be of service to those who are at risk, and to advocate for justice.
