In retirement, we have the luxury of having more time.
UURMaPA offers opportunities for members to socialize, share ideas, and continue learning.
See what others are doing ==> Click Here.
At Ministry Day we present a “collegial conversation” to address retirement issues.
At General Assembly we host a luncheon to welcome newly retired members (see photo of recent retirees) ==> Click Here. And we take part in the special luncheon that is offered to surviving family members of ministers who have died that past year.
Plans are underway now to meet in Asheville, NC in March ==> Click Here and to meet in Seabeck, WA in April ==> Click Here. Recent meetings have been in Attleboro, MA; Star Island, NH; Portland, OR; Fort Myers, FL; and Menlo Park, CA. Our conferences attract between 20-50 people and allow much time for in-depth experience.
UURMaPA members offer workshops at Ferry Beach during July and August. And we have established a tradition of gathering informally at Star Island in September. ==> Click Here
Our Caring Network Contacts help members in specific geographic regions make contact with one another. They organize local luncheons and dinner outings that usually draw six to twelve participants.
If you would like to attend a small gathering let your Caring Network Contact know. Just look in your copy of the UURMaPA Directory or ==> Click Here to find out who that is.
If you are considering helping with the planning of a gathering, be sure to look over the Conference Planning Guide (especially the last few paragraphs) ==> Click Here.
When you participate in an event, please send a picture and brief account to the webmaster for posting here. Email Andy Backus ==>Click Here
