Beacon St

AND as soon as I get back to work I get to take off on another adventure and head up to Boston to meet with headquarters.

We are in Boston for a series of meetings with the Public Witness team, the Congregational Advocacy office, and the whole UUA Staff. It is very helpful to come here and get grounded in the broader UUA staff family. There are a lot of dedicated and talented people working for the UUA and I am proud to be a member of this community.
Today was also the swearing in of the new governor of Massachusetts. Deval Patrick swore in as the first black governor of Mass on the Amistad bible. Also down in Washington the 110th Congress was sworn in and Nancy Pelosi was elected first female speaker of the house. It is an exciting day of firsts.
