  • All SMAs need at least three members to sponsor them to come into being. You are welcome to talk to staff and lay leaders for help and guidance.

  • Not yet! Please talk about your idea to other members, staff, and the board to see if there is a strong interest; maybe you can find others willing to lead it. .
