Week At A Glance
Ethics & Integrity in Ministry (EIM)
Serving in ministry at the UCC?
By order of the Bishop, anyone serving in a
ministry that works with children or vulnerable
adults must be certified by the office for Ethics and
Integrity in Ministry (EIM). To be certified,
you must submit an online application to the
Diocese and attend a 3-hour “Basic” workshop.
Those who have already been certified must also
attend a 1.5 hour “Refresher” workshop every three years in order
to maintain their certification. Please note that the UCC will host
one of each type of workshop every Fall and Spring semester.
To register and to learn more, visit the Diocese of Austin
webpage and click on “EIM Workshops” under the “Quick Links”
tab. You may attend ANY available workshop in the Diocese—you
do not need to attend those offered by the UCC. If you have any
questions, please contact Matthew at [email protected].
Upcoming workshops at the UCC:
3/08 Refresher (1.5-hour) in the Catacombs, 7:00 pm
3/09 BASIC (3-hour) in the Catacombs, 7:00 pm

Catechumen profiles • Christian Natajaya
We want everyone in the UCC community to get to know those
who are going through RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults)
to become full members of the Catholic Church at Easter. Today
we profile Christian Natajaya!
I'm Christian Natajaya (quite the A student, as
reflected in my last name). I was born in
Indonesia, studied in Singapore, and now I'm
here for college. I came to the UCC because I
want to grow closer to God, so that I may trust
Him in tough times, so that I may receive His
strength to overcome temptations, and be able to
listen to Him. I study Chemical Engineering, and
I think calculus can be fun. I like adrenaline, especially skiing and
roller coasters. But I also enjoy the natural scenery, hiking or
staying in a farm for a few days in Australia – fun!
