Unitarian Universalists of Southern Delaware (UUSD) is at a pivotal point in our history. Over the past seven years, we have increased our member households by 60% and our operating budget target has increased 215%. Because of this rapid growth, we have moved from a pastoral-sized congregation to a program-sized congregation. In response, UUSD developed a 5-year plan designed to guide us into the future.
At the Annual Meeting usually held in early June, the entire congregation of members meets to vote on our budget for the upcoming year; elect members of the congregation to two leadership groups: the Board of Trustees and the Leadership Development Committee; receive the Annual Report from the staff and committees, and conduct other business as needed. Occasionally we hold all member congregational meetings to address special questions that have arisen. An absentee ballot is available for those members who are not able to attend the meeting.
