This is Peter Bowden with a UU Growth Lab member update.
First, thank you. Whether you participate in live strategy sessions, watch on-demand trainings, or discuss training transcripts with your AI of choice, thank you for being part of our UU Growth Lab community.
It is incredibly helpful to be in touch with leaders across our congregations. I share my insights, you share yours. We all try different things. We learn together. Given all the changes in our world, this is more important than ever. Thank you for all you do!
An additional special thank you to those who joined us live on April 14th for our Hosting Community Conversations and Fast Tracking AI Conversations session. As always, your live participation helps accelerate our learning, growth, and innovation.
The new on-demand training is available, as well as the member audio podcast episode, the transcript, Google Doc, and original Zoom replay.
A reminder that while we use the example of AI community conversations, this model may be used with any issue requiring our collective discernment. The goal is to make gathering and making space for open-ended conversation on the issues of our time a practice. Not a program, a practice.

1. AI Community Conversations with Peter Bowden
I'm launching my own series of AI Community Conversations via Zoom open to Unitarian Universalists and others in my extended network. Would you like to join us? Working on the schedule now. These will be live sessions using the model we've been developing. In addition to the value of the conversation for those attending, I want to make community conversation session plans and UU small group ministry session plans based on what we discuss. If you're interested in attending, share your name and email via this form: https://www.peterbowden.live/ai
2. Questions this Community Conversations model
If you have follow-up questions about this model, are experimenting with it in your own congregation, or just want to think it through together, I'd love to hear from you. Reach out at peterbowden.live/contact.
3. Want me to host your AI Community Conversation event?
I'm looking for congregations near Boston that want to try this approach. Let me know if you're interested. For the early adopters in my area who are up for trying this, I'm going to volunteer to host some events. You put on the event, I help you with the planning, and then I'll be the primary facilitator of the event. Let's talk! Contact me at peterbowden.live/contact.
