Breakthrough CongregationsThe Breakthrough Congregation initiative is an effort by the UUA to identify those congregations that have achieved significant and sustained numerical growth and give them an opportunity to share at General Assembly what they’ve done, and how they’ve done it. The stories have been shared at General Assembly. Now every Breakthrough Congregation video since the program began at GA 2005 is available for viewing on the UUA website.
