Seven UUC members had the opportunity to participate in the Unitarian Universalist Association’s annual General Assembly (GA), held June 21–25 in Pittsburgh and online. They will share their GA experiences and answer your questions after the second service, downstairs in the Knatvold room.

You may have heard about Article II revisions to the UUA bylaws. Article II of the bylaws includes the UU Principles and the Sources, and UUA’s purpose as an organization. The UUA bylaws mandate a regular review process of Article II every 15 years. This year, the GA delegates had the opportunity to submit amendments, to vote on amendments, and then to cast a preliminary vote on the whole Article II proposal with the amendments that were added by delegate votes. The proposal received higher than 50 percent approval at GA, so it will be up for a final vote at GA 2024. You can find the Article II proposal package that was approved with amendments here: https://www.uua.org/files/2023-06/Article%202%20Package.pdf

Join the available delegates after Sunday's second worship service to learn more about Article II, other GA business and other sessions.  You are welcome to bring your coffee and cookies. Childcare may be available if reserved by September 7 with Aria Curtis, Director of Family Ministry.
