Welcome to the Illinos Conference Video Library.  Let me introduce myself.  My name is Reverend Paula Comper and I am an ordained UCC pastor.  I currently serve a local church called the United Church of Christ in Sauk Village.  My congregation is a multi/racial, multi/cultural congregation.  I am a member of the Illinois Conference Partner's in Education, and I serve on the Eastern Association Committee on Ministry.  I am the Contracted Program Staff for the Illinois Conference Youth Initiative.  I take care of the web page for the Illinois Conference.  I also do seasonal work for the Girl Scouts of Trailsway Council, Inc., balancing their troop accounts from May through September.  I wear many hats, but enjoy my many part-time employment opportunities.  

Currently we have a lot of videos in the library that are not being used, so over the winter months I will be spending time reviewing as many as I can.  My goals are: is the video useful for UCC/DOC churches today; does the video need a study guide to make it useful; what is the target audience for the video; does this video promote UCC theology.  If a video needs a study guide I will write one or ask for help from Illinois Conference Partners in Education.  I also will look at a better way to cross reference the videos, so hopefully I can do a new on-line catalogue that might be more user friendly. 

To receive membership information for your congregation, or to check on a video or DVD availability, please call the Conference Office between 8:30am and 4:30pm weekdays at 708/344-4470 or email me at illconfav@aol.com.   I am usually in the office three days a week, though it often varies because of my other responsibilites.  I do check and answer my emails from home if I cannot be in the office.

Please note that as we add new matierial to the library it will come in the form of a DVD.  All of our suppliers have discontinued VHS.

Thank you for using our library!

Rev. Paula R. Comper
