Is your congregation interested in exploring changing trends in the American religious landscape?  Are you hoping to broaden the community that you serve?  Are you curious about the concept of “Congregations and Beyond” that Peter Morales has introduced to us?  There is a new discussion guide designed to help structure your congregational conversations on these subjects and more.

It’s available for downloading at http://www.uua.org/documents/congservices/beyond/discussion_guide.pdf

It contains three sessions that will allow you to

1. explore the UUA’s rationale and set of initiatives we are developing,
2. investigate the new technologies that allow us to create new kinds of connections, and
3. learn about examples of congregational initiatives that help them “lower their walls.”

We are interested in learning from your conversations!  Please join the Facebook page, “Unitarian Universalists Exploring Congregations and Beyond” and post the things you have been talking about.
