Unitarian Universalist Youth Ministry Sermon Award
How has working with youth enriched your ministry?
As part of the UUA's Consultation on Ministry To and With Youth, you now have the opportunity to participate in a sermon contest about youth ministry.
This award is designed to elicit conversation and encourage interest in strengthening youth ministry throughout the Association. It is also a great way to promote the Youth Ministry Conversation (held in April or May) in your congregation.
An award of $500 will be given to the sermon presenter who best captures and expresses the value of youth ministry. The sermon must have been delivered before a UU congregation between January and May 2006. The recipient must also be planning to attend the 2006 UUA General Assembly in St. Louis, where they will have an opportunity to present the sermon to the wider UU community.
Please submit sermons by May 15, 2006 (via email only) to: youthconsult @ uua.org.
