SAYMA Annual Sessions

Saturday, June 14 (virtual)
Friday, June 20 – Monday, June 23 (virtual and in person)

Berea College
Berea, Kentucky

This year at our annual sessions and retreat, the SAYMA Yearly Meeting Planning Committee in consultation with the presiding clerk has changed our traditional pattern of daily meeting for worship with attention to business by limiting the number of hours we spend doing business during our hybrid gathering. There will still be many opportunities to worship with each other and we will be focused on Nurturing Our Community In Our Broken Worlds. In order to accomplish the necessary business for SAYMA, this year's annual session will include one virtual meeting for business prior to our hybrid session and possibly one following, if needed.

Mark your calendar: Session I of our annual meeting for worship with attention to business will be held virtually on Saturday, June 14, 2 - 5 pm ET / 1 - 4 pm CT. Please use the link below to see the proposed agenda for yearly meeting sessions. Business Meeting Zoom Link
