What will this workshop cover?
The Article II of the of the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) Bylaws, Principles and Purposes is the foundation for all the work of our UUA and its member congregations and covenanted communities. It is the covenant to which Unitarian Universalist congregations and covenanted communities pledge themselves when they become members of our UUA.
These weekly discussions will invite Unitarian Universalists in to a deeper dive with a covenanted community before reacting to or giving feedback on the proposed Article II. GA delegates will especially appreciate the exploration, but all are welcome.
The sessions will cover:
-
Covenant –Use the covenant section from the Proposed Article II to explore and live into.
-
Purpose, Inspirations, Inclusion and Freedom of Belief –Focus on the sections before and after the values and covenant.
-
Love –Explore the centering value in the proposed Article II.
-
Six Values: Interdependence, Justice, Equity, Generosity, Pluralism, and Transformation –Connect with the values and their meaning in our lives and communities.
Please plan to attend all 4 sessions
