UULTI (Unitarian Universalist Leadership Team
Institute) is a remarkable week-long residential learning
experience. Its practical tools and powerful ideas will help you
renew faith, embrace congregational growth and change, welcome and
nurture all, and fulfill the hopeful loving promise of Unitarian
Universalism in the wider world. Individuals will forge new
partnerships, teams will be strengthened, and all will be inspired
and empowered. Return to your congregation and help it grow into a
more loving, thriving community of prophetic word and deed. |
