It is Spring and the CUUPS board has been very busy creating new projects and birthing ones that have been gestating for a while now. Brochures, a book, General Assembly banners, and more!<\/p>\n
The Website\u2026<\/strong><\/h4>\nOur website is going to go through and update. We will be adding new information, updating some of the old information and adding more chapters that have been approved. We work to update at least once a quarter and are currently setting up a schedule for updates. If you see something like a broken link, missing chapter, and have other information you would like to see let us know by writing communications@cuups.org<\/a>. Please put \u201cWebsite Updates\u201d in the subject area.<\/p>\n![\"UU](\"https:\/\/wp-media.patheos.com\/blogs\/sites\/857\/2017\/03\/3066.jpg\")
<\/a>Cover for UU Pagan Pamphlet<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\nPamphlets\u2026<\/strong><\/h4>\nWe are hearing from many of you a request for a more comprehensive brochure about CUUPS. That is in discussion, and we are crafting what we want it to say that is in alignment with our mission, vision, and organizational branding, as well as the UUA\u2019s branding. \u00a0If your chapter has a current brochure you are using please send a low-resolution pdf to the email above. We would love to see what you are all up to. As the definition of UU Paganism expands, we want to be more inclusive in how not only we language ourselves, but how we can support chapters in speaking the organization too.<\/p>\n
Currently however, there are a series of rack card style brochures online in the Resources<\/a> section of the CUUPS website. Your chapters can download them to take to a printer and use them in your congregation\u2019s brochure rack or at your local Pagan bookstores who welcome them. The brochures are set up for a printer to print two on an 8.5\u201d x 11\u201d paper and cut them down to size. The UUA also has a pamphlet called Faith of Unitarian Universalist Pagans<\/a><\/em><\/strong> for your congregations to distribute.<\/p>\nSkinner House Pagan Voices Book\u2026<\/strong><\/h4>\n![\"Pagan](\"https:\/\/wp-media.patheos.com\/blogs\/sites\/857\/2017\/03\/6529.jpg\")

<\/a>Illustration of CUUPS General Assembly Banner Vision<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\nChapters Needed for New Banner Project\u2026<\/strong><\/h4>\nThere is an exciting project for chapters to get involved with!! We are creating a new banner for General Assembly as well as a booth banner for conferences and gatherings we attend as an organization. For the initial part of the project we are doing the GA banner first! Here you will see the idea for the banner the board has chosen.<\/p>\n
We need ten chapters to support the project. Each chapter will design a panel for a specifically assigned element. These are not illustrated panels. They are more abstract and collage like in nature using colors to invoke each element. Once we have ten chapters volunteer there will be a web-based conference call to explain the vision. They will be created on paper, scanned in and printed on a canvas like material to use in the GA Banner Parade and at our booths.<\/p>\n
