The United Church of Christ is poised to make a historic choice in the next president of the denomination.  After a year-long process, the UCC Board voted on March 4 to nominate Associate General Minister, the Rev. Dr. Karen Georgia Thompson, for General Minister and President. If elected by the General Synod this summer, Thompson would be the first woman and the first woman of African descent to lead the denomination. Rev. Thompson served the Florida Conference for many years and Rev. Andy Bachmann and Rev. Talia Raymond both know her and are thrilled to hear of her nomination.  Click here to read more about this historic moment in the United Church of Christ.
