Greetings Beloveds,
Would you like to attend the Unitarian Universalist Association General Assembly (GA) as a voting delegate?
As we approach the end of the church year, UUCT has the opportunity to participate in General Assembly (GA) which happens at the end of June every year. This is a national gathering of UU congregations to vote on the business of the denomination, deepen connections, worship together, and learning from a variety of workshops. This year, GA is June 22-26th in Portland, Oregon and virtually to allow attendees to participate from anywhere.
Every member church of the UUA may send delegates based on the number of members in that congregation. The UU Church of Tallahassee has three delegate slots to fill. To serve as a delegate you must be a member of the church. If you are interested in attending GA as a delegate please email me at minister@uutallhassee.org or to a member of the Board (names and emails listed in the directory).
If you wish to serve as a delegate, you can attend just the business sessions at very little cost (donation) or you may participate in all offerings depending on your own availability. Virtual registration costs $275 per person and in-person is $575. There are funds available to assist with registration fees for delegates so please do not let the cost deter you from participating.
