The Rev. William G. Sinkford has given a charge to his successor as UUA president, the Rev. Peter Morales, quoting from each of his surviving predecessors in the office. Sinkford then took the stole he had been wearing and placed it on Peter. The Rev. Victoria Safford has led the General Assembly in laying hands on and blessing President Morales. He sits beside Sinkford, with his wife and daughter behind him, and the Board of Trustees and other leaders surrounding them. Moderator Gini Courter is now leading the congregation in a prayer with a sung response led by the choir.
