Speaker+Bios

toc This page is set aside to create C3HUU a speaker biography, aka "bio" for those who don't have external biographies or web sites to reference.

To create a bio, an "anchor tag" is entered below before the text of the biography entry. This anchor tag is created using double brackets and a pound sign such as: code  code On the other web or wiki page, create a link to this bio page by inserting this form of URL link into the web page or other wiki page: code http://c3huu.org/Speaker+Bios#SpeakerNameBio code This form will work on any other web site that allows full URLs to be added, including other Wikispaces.com pages. You have to eliminate every space in the speaker bio name for this to work in the URL link form. The #SpeakerNameBio tag turns into little anchor icons after you save your changes to this wikispaces.com page. By using this type of anchor tag, it doesn't matter which order bio entries are created, each will have a unique URL.Putting some blank space around each bio features that bio when a person clicks on the link.

Jim Magaw
is a member of the Community Church and a frequent music contributor. He has also served as chair of the church’s committee on ministry and the music committee. Jim works as a public communications specialist for UNC’s Arts and Sciences Foundation, whose mission is to raise money to support the College of Arts and Sciences. In 2009, Jim began a master of divinity program at Meadville Lombard Theological School in Chicago, where he was awarded the Sanders Scholarship for Excellence in Ministry. Fortunately, the distance learning program in which he is enrolled will allow Jim to stay in the Chapel Hill area with his wife Marta and daughter Ella while he completes his coursework. Jim credits his involvement with the Community Church as one of the primary forces moving him toward pursuing ordained ministry.



Ruth Gibson
was raised unchurched through early childhood by free-thinking parents but when she insisted on going to Sunday school, they decided that, perhaps, the Unitarians wouldn’t do her too much harm. Her family attended infrequently, but in a gesture of youthful independence she joined the choir, and then the social action committee in her early teens and signed the membership book at age 16. After retiring from 25 years of work as a Unitarian Universalist religious educator she and her husband Jim moved to Chapel Hill, joined our church. Ruth sings with our Community Singers, serves on our Peace and Justice Committee and on our Justice United team. She also volunteers with the Unitarian Universalist Partner Church Council, promoting faith-strengthening connections between Unitarian Universalist congregations all around the world.
