How is your congregation participating? Are you sending delegates?

Go to the Apple Store or Google Play store, search for "WorshipWeb" and download it. Let me know what you think! (I didn't make it -- I'll pass feedback along to the dev team of Larry Stritof, Paul Mullin, and Ben Stallings in the UUA's ITS Staff Group.)

Someone posted recently that the UUA.org website was hard to use. I'm the UUA's Web Team Manager and we are working updates to the site. I'd love complaints and suggestions!

The Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) is currently searching for its next moderator, who will succeed co-moderators Elandria Williams and Mr. Barb Greve in 2020. The moderator, who serves as the Chief Governance Officer of the Association and works closely with the UUA Board of Trustees, executive staff, and committees, will be elected in June 2020 at General Assembly in Providence, Rhode Island.

The 2020 election will be a special election to fill the remaining five years of a six-year term, as no nomination was made for the previously scheduled election in 2019.

The deadline to apply for moderator is October 1, 2019. Applicants may complete the online application form or download a PDF version of the application. Go to the UUA website and search Moderator 2020. The moderator is a volunteer position that requires substantial travel. (There is reimbursement for all expenses and modest reimbursement for lost work time.)

The UUA Board of Trustees nominates candidates for moderator and has appointed a Moderator Search Committee to recruit well-qualified individuals or a team of individuals for review and possible nomination. The Moderator Search Committee will receive and evaluate applications, conduct references and background checks, and present their recommendations to the board. If you have questions, you can contact the Moderator Search Committee at [moderatorsearchcommittee@uua.org](mailto:moderatorsearchcommittee@uua.org)

The board will announce the candidate(s) for this election by December 10, 2019. Candidates may also run via petition, with a deadline of February 1, 2020.
