About Us

Stonetree Congregational Resources serves UU congregations in the MidAmerica region of the UUA by providing this website which allows congregations to search for good people (resources) able to provide them with services appropriate to a UU setting.  Our directory includes speakers/preachers, musicians, religious educators, tech people, artists, and more.

Search by selecting the name of your congregation to see everyone in our directory who would be willing to travel to your congregation.  If you're looking for a specific service, our search refining tools will make that easier. 

In order for a service provider to be listed in our directory, she or he must be recommended by a member of a UU congregation, helping us to ensure that resources you utilize are of high quality.  By registering an account with stonetreeuu.org as a recommender, you can contribute reviews of our resources to further improve our service.

 

Stonetree Congregational Resources is made possible by teams of volunteers working together with the Prairie Star District

Stonetree was originally named "Stonetree Spiritual Resources" and was the brainchild of Rev. Barbara Kellett. Barbara recruited and nurtured volunteers throughout the Prairie Star District to help her refine her concept and bring it to life. We are indebted to her for her vision and graceful presence.

 

Our Volunteers:

Erin Dajka is the director of Stonetree Congregational Resources and has trained in UU ministry. She is currently attending United Theological Seminary in New Brighton, MN, and is serving a quarter-time internship at the First Unitarian Society of Minneapolis under Rev. Kendyl Gibbons.
