Please plan to attend the November 2024 Special Congregational Meeting at 1:00 p.m. on Sunday, November 3, following the second service. All members in good standing* are eligible to vote on the motion to approve the amended budget. Official meeting materials are available online (2024 Special Meeting Materials); some paper copies are available in the church office.

There are three ways to participate in the Annual Meeting:

• All members in good standing who chose to participate in person at the church will check in at the check-in desk to receive a voting card. 
• Members in good standing who wish to attend via Zoom will need to pre-register using this form. After registering, they will receive the meeting number and passcode from the office. Note that in the Zoom meeting, one connection = one vote. In a household with two church members who will only use one Zoom connection on one device (representing one vote), one of those members must submit an absentee ballot prior to the meeting to have their vote counted.
• Members in good standing who will not participate on November 3 in any way but wish to vote absentee can submit an absentee ballot: click here for a printable pdf. (Paper copies of absentee ballots are available in the church office.) Completed paper absentee ballots signed by a member in good standing must be postmarked by Wednesday, October 30, to ensure they will be received in time for counting prior to the meeting.

The meeting will be livestreamed. Check the church website homepage (uuchurch.org) for information on viewing the live stream. Individuals who observe the meeting on live stream will not be able to participate in any discussion or voting in the meeting, regardless of their membership status.

We need a quorum of congregants to attend (in-person or via Zoom) to approve the amended budget so please participate if you are able to.

 * According to the Bylaws, a "member in good standing" shall have (i) completed a prescribed orientation program; (ii) made at least one unrestricted contribution of record during the past twelve (12) months; and (iii) signed the membership roll.
