We are offering this two-part online retreat geared toward small congregations, with each session having unique material, so please plan on attending both sessions.

Participating teams will…

• explore the needs of congregations today.
• connect and collaborate with leaders across congregations.
• practice the UUA’s Meet the Moment process.
• go deeper on specific congregational topics chosen by attendees.
• meet leaders in similar roles at other congregations and explore ways to magnify your ministries together.
• Ministers, Staff, Boards, and all other Leaders are invited!

Dates and Time

• Online, specifically for small congregations (100 members or less) who want to connect with other small congregations, happening on Tuesdays, September 30 and October 7 from 7:00 to 9:00pm ET. This two-session version of the Joint Leadership Retreat will connect congregations with similar size challenges and blessings so leaders can form connections and share insights.
