Amanda Conger, Congregational Administrator
Amanda Conger earned her Bachelor's degree in Religion from Augustana College in June 2014. Amanda started as our New Member Coordinator in November 2014, and since that time, also served as Office Assistant before accepting the Congregational Administrator position in August 2017. Amanda is here for all of your scheduling, communication, and administrative needs. A born people-person, Amanda is here to serve the Mission and Vision of the UUCQC. Amanda lives in Rock Island with her husband, two daughters, three cats, one dog, and her beloved tarantula, Hooligan. She enjoys all things Harry Potter, keeping the congregation guessing what color her hair will be next, singing, Kurt Vonnegut, volunteering, hiding funny videos in the weekly UU News, painting, coffee, finding vintage furniture on the side of the road and restoring it, a good cup of tea, bats (the creatures, not the sticks from Louisville), sculpting, groundhogs, and smashing the patriarchy ;) She also has an irrational fear of werewolves, but only during a full moon. Email: office@uucqc.org Office Hours: Monday-Friday 9 a.m. to noon and by appointment after noon. |
