$1.35 Million Raised By Association Sunday
March 15, 2008
Association Sunday is a success, says the Rev. Stephen Papa, special assistant to the president for Growth Funding. More than 650 congregations held Association Sunday services from October through this winter. Association Sunday contributions totalled approximately $1.35 million as of the beginning of February. The funds will help support the Unitarian Universalist Association’s current national advertising campaign, an initiative to support ministers of color, and growth grants for individual congregations.Plans are underway for the next Association Sunday, which is planned for October 12 (register online). Association Sunday is planned as an annual event for the next several years. Funds raised at the next Association Sunday will support improved theological education for lay leaders and for promoting excellence in professional ministry.
