Join this gathering in Berlin!

European Unitarians Together (EUT) – Retreat in Berlin, 7-10 June 2019

• “EUT 2019 is a 4-day retreat and conference centered about the theme:

Vielfalt – Würze des Lebens? Variety – Spice of life?

• We intend to explore the many faces of diversity: its challenges, its benefits and its potential for a better Europe. The event will be simultaneously interpreted into at least English and German.”

Past EUT Retreats (1983 – 2018)

• EUU – Unitarian Universalists in Europe is one of the co-sponsors of EUT, and includes Unitarian Fellowships in six European Countries.

Or visit one of these congregations

UU community elsewhere on the globe…in case you’re traveling (by sail boat, of course)

• Australia and New Zealand – 10 congregations
• Hong Kong – 1 fellowship
• A curious history of the Unitarian Church, – from the Khasai Hills in NE India, 2016.  I found it hard to find a current link to the Khasai Hills Unitarians, except through a partner church, even though there are more Unitarians there than in Canada, and even though they helped to host (in Nepal) the 2018 gathering of the International Association of Unitarian Universalists.
• UU Partnership Council – and Planned Pilgrimages and
• UCV’s Partnership Church Committee or
