It appears that we will soon be completing the relaunch of the First Parish in Cambridge, Unitarian Universalist. This is the church that Shelby and I belong to, and I've been working on their site for some time now, as a pro-bono project for Welcoming Websites.

The past few months have been dominated by a fairly complex upgrade of the old site, which was implemented in Drupal 4.7. Happily, we are nearly done with that upgrade, and the new site, based on Drupal 5, should be released quite soon. On top of that new foundation, we have big plans for the new site, starting with a sermon podcast; moving on to home pages and workspaces for the church's committees and groups, using Organic Groups; and perhaps winding up with a virtual store and rental payment system, using the eCommerce module.

We're very excited for the relaunch! Stay tuned for more updates on this cutting-edge site, coming soon.
