It was fun to join the “evening” social on the first day of the UK Unitarians’ 3-day conference (noon our time).
We were placed into randomly generated groups of 5 and for 3 rounds, given a different discussion question: check-in; if you were leading a workshop, what would it be; and sharing a favorite object.
A couple of people online remembered me from my time visiting representing CUC; and a few others knew my name from facebook activity. It was great to see video of some names I knew but had never seen before. Who knew that Aleks was a young woman for instance?
TODAY: Join UK Unitarians for their key-note talk at the annual conference. I’ll be there. I hope this will be recorded so more people can watch.
Wednesday 10:45 am in Vancouver
