Association Sunday Planned Again This Fall
July 15, 2008
The date for the Unitarian Universalist Association's (UUA’s) second annual Association Sunday is October 12. The UUA is asking congregations to hold events on that date to recognize and support the Association’s work.
More than 600 congregations participated in the first Association Sunday, held last fall, which raised more than $1.4 million. Funds went to a national advertising campaign, to support ministers of color and their congregations, and to provide growth grants for congregations.
The 2008 campaign is titled “Growth in Spirit.” Funds will be used for lay theological education and for continuing education for ministers, grants for seminary students and to support ministers of color. Congregations are free to select dates other than October 12 to hold their events, if necessary. Register online or email your service date and contact information to associationsunday @ uua.org. You can also call the Campaign Assistant for Association Sunday, at (617) 948-6544.
A final report on the 2007 Association Sunday is on UUA.org.
For more information contact interconnections @ uua.org.
This work is made possible by the generosity of individual donors and congregations. Please consider making a donation today.
