crystal fountain (1)We are happy to introduce you to our new Religious Education Coordinator, Crystal Fountain!

She will join our staff on Jan. 8 but is familiar to many in the congregation. Crystal and her husband and children began attending UUSS in 2019. Crystal and Sean Fountain have one child in the nursery and two in our elementary-aged program, Soul Kids, but they have all been visible at many church activities
in person and on Zoom.

A Sacramento-area native, Crystal brings experience with teaching, curricular design, andpedagogical approaches for various age levels. She has skills in  research, public speaking, writing, social media, and following safety requirements and financial procedures. She holds a bachelor’s degree, cum
laude, in art history from Vassar College, and has been a graduate teaching assistant and foreign-language tutor. At UUSS she is in a Ministry Circle and serves as a Soul Matters small group facilitator. Recently she coordinated our holiday party.
The hiring team was impressed by Crystal’s creativity, adaptability, and collaborative style. In
working with children, parents, and volunteers, she is a thoughtful listener who seeks to discover
connections and build on them. She welcomes new ideas and divergent interests, celebrating the
differences embodied in our community. She seeks to bring more visibility to our programs of Religious
Education and Family Ministry and to encourage broader participation by the congregation.

We welcome her to this role, which is a half-time position. We hope you will consider how you
can support our goals of community-building across all ages and stage of life and spiritual formation
based on our Unitarian Universalist values. As of January 8, you can reach her at
