Bonus Episode: The President Speaks Out

UUMAN Unitarian Universalist Metro Atlanta North Church

"People DO find us. I've always believed that if more people knew about UUMAN, our values, our unique brand of no-dogma spirituality, that many more would come and join us." Mike Chambers shares his vision of the Board President's role in accomplishing such worthy goals, reports relatively good news about UU membership trends, and talks about his past work as VP focusing on UUMAN safety and security policies.

He also points us to some artistic endeavors to which we might wish to read, watch, and hear; and the correct pronunciation of the word "succinct."

All while bringing thirty years of experience as a technical writer to provide answers that are the embodiment of succinct.

(which, as Mike says, could be "a UU anthem.")

(performed as a duet at Mike and Donna's wedding, gets a mention near the end of the episode)

Lastly: Anyone know of a theater group looking for a Roswell, GA stage, with access to a dressing room (aka "the Choir room"), to rent on certain select evenings?
