Pacific Central
District of the Unitarian Universalist Association
PLEASE “SAVE THE
DATE” FOR THE FOLLOWING EVENTS:
|
December 13 ~ Young Adult Ministry A one-day workshop for professional and lay leaders
interested in making their congregations attractive and meaningful to young adults.
This one will be hosted by our Livermore congregation, and will be lead by Nancy DiGiovanni, Acting co-Director
of our UUA Young Adult Ministries Office. |
|
January 24 ~ Stewardship A one-day workshop lead by Wayne Clarke, Director of Congregational Fundraising Services,
and author of the wonderful book, Beyond Fundraising. Wayne defines
stewardship as the growing, nurturing, promoting, and building of our gifts,
call, and spiritual vocation. Thanks to our Marin congregation for hosting the event. |
|
February 21 ~ Marketing A one-day workshop at our UU Society of Sacramento, brings UUA
Marketing Director Valerie Holton
back to the PCD. We still don't have a regional guerrilla marketing
group for the Valley-Sierra region, but maybe those attending this workshop
will make the networking connections to get one started. Everyone attending
will leave with increased understanding and effective tools for their own
congregation's outreach initiatives. |
|
March 21 ~ Big Ideas for Small
Congregations A one day workshop at our Stockton congregation for the leaders of our
small congregations. Led by one or both of the authors of Big Ideas for Small Congregations, Ellen Germann-Melosh, former DE of
the Mountain Desert District, and the Reverend
Jane Dwinell, former Small Church Specialist for what was the New
Hampshire-Vermont District, and the Editor of Small Talk. |

MARRIAGE EQUALITY
Be it resolved that the District Assembly of the Pacific Central District of the Unitarian Universalist Association reaffirms our support of the right of same sex couples to legally marry and share fully and equally in the rights, commitments, and responsibilities of civil marriage.
Be it further resolved that we oppose any ballot measure attempts to amend our constitution to prohibit same sex couples from equal access to civil marriage.
We are committed to standing on the side of love.
As Unitarian Universalists, we commit ourselves to public action, visibility,education and mutual support in the service of the right and freedom to marry.
