This Sunday, I preached about the proposed revision to Article II of the Unitarian Universalist Association’s bylaws–the section that houses our principles, purposes, and sources. While my sermon touched on the process, I promised to make materials available to anyone interested in a deeper dive.

Here are some links to explore:

This is the main UUA page about the Article II Study Commission, which contains a great deal of information and links to more:

Here is a theological reflection on the revision, which I quoted in Sunday’s service:

Here is an article from the UU World from December 2023:

As your minister, I will automatically serve as a delegate for UUFM to General Assembly. We are also entitled to two delegates from among our membership. I hope we will fill both slots, especially because this year is online-only which makes it much less expensive and time-consuming to participate, without traveling. Please let me know if you’d like to talk about this!

In gratitude,

Rev. Diana
