		<title>District Executive Message, August 19, 2010</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We are a &#8220;Faith Beyond Belief,&#8221; notes UUA President Peter Morales. I welcome this reminder that Unitarian Universalism &#8212; although begun in theological dispute &#8212; is much more than trying to craft a &#8220;right belief.&#8221; Indeed, as I visit with congregational leaders, our leading cause of congregational heart-burn stems from some trying to enforce a [...]]]></description>

		<title>District Executive Message, August 2010</title>
		<description><![CDATA[“When does church begin?” I naively asked upon arriving to take up my ministry at Fort Myers seven years ago. I knew it really just keeps on going, but the Sunday after Labor Day was always some kind of new beginning in my prior congregations. Noting that schools in Florida open in early August, that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As you know by this time the Resolution to keep General Assembly (GA) 2012 in Phoenix, AZ passed at this year’s GA by a very large margin; and it will be a “Justice GA”. Over the next four years leading up to this GA our Association and hopefully every congregation within will be devoting study [...]]]></description>

		<title>UUA Trustee Reflections</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Joan Lund June, 2010, General Assembly, Minneapolis, Minnesota Not only is Minneapolis a beautiful, welcoming, clean city…our annual meeting was just simply a “dynamite, dynamic” event. UUs worked hard…and speaking for myself (perhaps others, too) had little time for play. There were many excellent workshops and lectures. Between 3800 and 3900 UUs were together during [...]]]></description>

		<title>District Executive Message, July 2010</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Dear Companions, The 49th Unitarian Universalist Association General Assembly may prove to be one of those seminal moments in our larger ministry. The polarizing issue of whether to move our 2012 GA out of Arizona — in response to that state’s legislation regarding immigration issues — was managed by the adoption of a compromise resolution [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Joan Lund, July 2010 I would like to be writing about General Assembly 2010 but the column is due before my departure to our annual meeting. Hopefully those of you who attended GA returned energized and ready to share your perspectives and experiences with your congregation. It seems appropriate, no matter what decisions were made [...]]]></description>

		<title>District Executive Message &#8211; June 4, 2010</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Papers!&#8221; the soldier brusquely demanded, rifle hanging menacingly from his soldier. I was on my way from Budapest to Transylvania. Our train had stopped at the Romanian border. Silently, my cabin mates and I handed over our passports. We were not in a position to argue. I was assured this was routine, that my passport [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sound Bites By Connie Goodbread As Unitarian Universalists we are confused about what a sound bite is. We think that a Unitarian Universalist sound bite must somehow explain everything about our faith. When in fact a sound bite is a piece of truth, not the whole truth. None of the sound bites that we hear [...]]]></description>
