Welcoming Congregation Renewal

Did you know your "Welcoming Congregation" status must be renewed each year, starting in 2019? Let UUJAZ help you track your completion towards that annual goal!

LGBTQ+ Days of Observance Posters

Remember when your congregation became a Welcoming Congregation? Maybe it was before you started attending... maybe it was so long ago it's hard to remember... maybe it was before you were born!

For most Congregations in Arizona, it was the late 90's or early 2000's. A lot has changed since then. That's why since 2019, the UUA is requiring congregations to renew their Welcoming Congregation status every year.

To support the AZ Congregations in this endeavor, UUJAZ's talented graphics whiz, and Communications Coordinator, Phoebe Dubisch, has put together graphics for each day of Observance, and we'll send them out to congregational administrators, communications folks, and ministers monthly. If there's anyone else you want us to add to the list, just let Phoebe know at UUJAZcomms@gmail.com
