Program Coverage for Thursday, June 24th
The UUA General Assembly opened with a beautifully designed
opening celebration focusing on the UUA's justice work around
same sex marriage. The Gay Men's Chorus of Los Angeles provided
music for the event, which also featured the traditional and
colorful banner parade, welcoming of new congregations into
the UUA, and remarks by the Rev. William Sinkford, UUA President.
Acting Moderator Gini Courter was introduced to the gathered
body, and the Revs. John Marsh and Margot Campbell Gross,
co-ministers of the First Unitarian Universalist Church of
San Francisco, spoke about their role in supporting and performing
same sex marriages, legal in San Francisco earlier this year.
