Mark Your Calendar Now, and Plan To Attend the Y2K District Annual Assembly!
April 28 - 30, 2000 Daytona Beach

"A Home for Every District Unitarian Universalist" will be the theme for your Y2K District Annual Assembly, to be held the weekend following Easter, April 28-30, 2000. Admittedly the Y2K theme has many facets, however the Annual Assembly focus will be on making a home for the theological diversity among us. Our theme speaker will be the Rev. Stephan M. Jonasson, Coordinator of Services to Large Congregations for the Unitarian Universalist Association.

Rev. Jonasson's home congregation is in a Canadian prairie village, even more remote and isolated than many of our cities and towns. Rev. Jonasson thinks of himself as a "broad church humanist" ministering to Christian pietists, Icelandic pagans, humanists, and the village atheist(s). He reminds us that "As modern communications remake human culture into a global village, we are obliged to embrace 'village diversity' on an ever larger scale."

In addition to our keynote speaker, the Y2K Annual Assembly will also feature workshops. In response to requests from those who have attended previous Annual Assemblies, the committee planning the Y2K event would like to offer longer workshops. This plan will necessarily limit the number of workshops offered. A formal request for workshop proposals will be included in the October packet. Workshops will be selected in November. Registration materials for the April 28-30, 2000 District Annual Assembly will be inserted into the January Sunshine.

Any general advice, suggestions or requests for the Y2K Annual Assembly should be directed to the Rev. Barbara Morgan, District Vice-President, 1124F Beville Road, Daytona Beach, FL 32114 or 904-252-2882 or BMORGAN107@AOL.COM.
