Be a FUUN Delegate to the 2020 UUA General Assembly
A request for members of the congregation to be delegates to General Assembly 2020 online, June 24-28. Contact Committee for the Larger Faith at largerFaith@thefuun.org.
On April 13, 2020, the UUA Board of Trustees passed a resolution to make the 2020 General Assembly a 100% virtual event. This decision alleviates the anxiety and concern shared by many about how GA might proceed given the impact of COVID-19. It also gives the Association time to plan a more robust and rewarding virtual experience.
A virtual GA has many benefits, including a significant reduction in our carbon footprint and the possibility of higher attendance, since it is more accessible to those for whom travel costs or time has been a barrier.
For many years, we have offered virtual participation as an option. This year, we will scale and enhance our technology so that we can accommodate a wider, ideally more global, audience. Across the country, UU congregations have embraced virtual meetings and Sunday services and we know that the number of screens that log in has grown each week. More about Virtual GA.
