August 2008: Welcome Back
Dear Friends,Welcome back from General Assembly (GA)!
After all of the excitement of our annual gathering, things settled down in July and I have plenty of information for you all.
Last year’s Association Sunday was a resounding success (Thank you!) and we hope that you will participate in the event again this fall. Please fill out the enclosed registration form to sign up.
Make sure to look at the announcement of the International Convocation of Unitarian Universalist (UU) Women. This will be the first national meeting of UU women in fifteen years and the first ever gathering of international UU women. Judging by the list of speakers, it will be an exciting event, so sign up now!
To ensure the delivery of UU World magazine to your congregants, the Information Technology Services department needs you to update your contact information regularly. You can do this online with the Data Services account; see the flyer for detailed instructions.
Skinner House Books has three new resources for your communities; check out the music from Come Sing a Song with Me: A Songbook for All Ages, see the little sample booklet titled Welcome: A Unitarian Universalist Primer and note the list of new children’s books. They will whet your appetite for upcoming books that will give you new ways to engage newcomers and members.
In peace,
Sabe Graham
Public Information Assistant
