OUR WIDER MOVEMENT

UUCA'S PARTNER CHURCH IN ROMANIA

The UUA Partner Church Council was formed in 1990 to help foster a cultural, spiritual, and economic bond between American congregations and "partner" churches in Transylvania. Today more than 150 UU congregations in North America are partnered with similarly sized churches throughout Eastern Europe.

UUCA was an early participant in the program, and, under the leadership of Carroll Payne, helped the Unitarians of Szekelyudvarhely restore their church building and parsonage. The "phoenix rising" banner of UUCA is today prominently displayed in the sanctuary in Carroll's honor.

Anyone interested in participating may contact Pat Kahn, pkahn@uuca.org.
