General Assembly (GA) 2026
General Assembly (GA) is the annual meeting of the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA), where participants gather to worship, witness, learn, connect, and make policy decisions for the Association through a democratic process.

On Saturday, June 20, GA 2026 invites participants into a shared day of learning, reflection, and action through Meet the Moment programming.
Meet the Moment Saturday at GA
Meet the Moment is a movement-wide framework that helps Unitarian Universalists make sense of the realities we are living in right now and respond in ways grounded in our shared values. It asks us to look honestly at the religious, cultural, generational, and political shifts shaping our communities, and to respond with courage, love, and a willingness to try new things.
The day begins with the Meet the Moment opening program, a shared virtual gathering for everyone participating. Together, we’ll explore how our faith has always held both grounding and transformation: staying rooted in our values while also being willing to change what no longer serves so we can respond to the needs of this moment.
From there, participants move into Wave Cohorts, smaller learning and discernment groups organized around key areas of UU life and ministry. Some are built around identity and lived experience, while others focus on themes and practices that cut across congregational life.
These groups are designed to help participants build shared analysis, learn from one another, avoid reinventing the wheel, and identify ways to act together across the UU ecosystem. Whether joining virtually or through a local gathering, participants will have space to dig deeper into the issues most connected to their interests and work.
The day closes with a Meet the Moment wrap-up session, bringing everyone back together to share insights, questions, and next steps that emerged from the Wave Cohorts.
Join the conversation, and leave with new partners, fresh insight, and practical ways to meet this moment together.

Keep Learning Before, During, and After GA in the EduCenter. Some of the best learning at GA 2026 won’t just happen in the live moment.
The GA EduCenter, available in the GA app powered by Whova, gives you ways to keep exploring ideas before GA begins, throughout the week, and for at least three months after GA ends. It’s a great complement to The weekend of worship and programming and Meet the Moment Saturday, giving you more ways to go deeper into the sessions and conversations that matter most to you.
Many of the on-demand videos will be available as soon as the app opens on May 29, so you can start exploring topics before GA officially gets underway. Then, as the week unfolds, you can use the EduCenter to go deeper into the themes coming up in worship, featured conversations, and Wave Cohorts.
If a session sparks something for you, chances are there’s an EduCenter program that helps you keep going. You’ll find practical sessions on congregational leadership, justice work, worship, youth leadership, stewardship, accessibility, climate, pastoral care, organizing, and much more.
Many programs are videos you can watch whenever it works for you, while others include live webinars where you can connect with presenters and other participants. Most of those live sessions will also be available later as recordings.
And because the EduCenter remains available for at least three months after GA, it gives you time to come back to the ideas you want to share with your congregation, leadership team, justice group, or ministry partners.
Keep exploring, and carry the tools, ideas, and momentum of GA back into your congregation over the months ahead.
