Please Update Your Congregational Information! |
As we come to a close for the 2023-2024 church year, likely your lay leadership personnel, or perhaps staff, have changed. We at the Region would like to stay in touch! We will continue to reach out directly to congregations, staff, and Board members via email with new events and opportunities as well as other important announcements and resources regularly. Our database is automatically updated by my.uua.org daily.
Please ensure the information listed on my.uua.org is current and correct. We thank you in advance for keeping all names, roles, and emails up-to-date. If you need to update the minister specifically, please contact the Transitions office using their Directory Update Form. We appreciate your understanding and assistance, and look forward to continuing to work closely with you in the year to come! |
