Extavagance UCC – Considerations and Annotations
The United Church of Christ (UCC) is establishing a geographically dispersed intentional community. I had the chance to spend six weeks with the UCC in August and September 2013. I was able to share my experience of Christian online communities in Germany and had the opportunity to learn about the plans for Extravagance UCC. This paper is a summary of my reflections.

I am happy to be invited to the LinK Evant this week and meet with people interested to continue the conversation about Extravagance UCC.
My paper is from September, so the conversation may have moved on in some aspects.

Extravagance UCC: Creating an Open and Welcoming Community
The UCC is an open and welcoming church, this will also be true for the Extravagance community. Who do you visualize when we speak about Extravagance members?
People
