Reframing Our Principles!

By Heather Millar

This is a timely topic. Opportunities to provide feedback on what will be presented to the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA)  Board in January and the UUA General Assembly (GA) in June 2023 are scheduled to start on November 5!

Article 2 of the UUA bylaws includes our Principles and Sources. As Rev. John reported during the initial sermon of the series about our principles, this list we highly value has been rewritten in the past. 

After the 2017 UUA General Assembly (GA), the UUA Board established the Article 2 Study Commission to examine Article 2. This Commission has already conducted and processed much, reaching out to UU members, groups, and friends to determine the appropriate approach for this current rewrite, to make it as inclusive and up-to-date as possible while also being relevant for our future needs. Let’s learn about the work they’ve done so far.

This Sunday, October 30, during After Hour, we have an opportunity to learn more about Article 2 and the work of the Study Commission AND how we can participate. Here is the Zoom link to attend this After Hour session.
