Dear Ones,

Various things this week…
 
I’m away this week for the Southeast UU Ministers Association retreat, up at The Mountain. The last time I was up at The Mountain was March, 2020, right before we closed because of the pandemic. There have been two other retreats since then, one all virtual and one multi-platform. This one is also going to be multi-platform: the presenter and some participants will be there in person, some will be joining in via Zoom.
 
In last week’s service, I mentioned the “Compass: Navigating the Paths of Liberation Together” conference in early December. This is an opportunity to learn more about the possible proposed revisions to our UU Principles and Sources – and to weigh in with your opinions. It’s happening on Zoom, Dec. 11 & 12. Fees are on a sliding scale from $25 to $60, based on your assessment of your ability to pay. Here’s a link to more information & registration: https://www.uua.org/leadership/events/compass?fbclid=IwAR3_Siu3T-OxjEwXceMVJoC6gy9e5N7JT5QmTgmfoMfX8xyZ1iEJllJvenk
 
Remember to register your donations for the annual auction as soon as possible! See the article elsewhere in Headline News for more information. The annual auction is a fun event – even when it’s all online!
 
I hope you’re having a good week! See you soon!

    Blessings,
