Welcoming Congregation subcommittee

This subcommittee seeks to help Allen Avenue continue to be a church that is welcoming to all people and their varied ways of expressing their gender identities and love for each other. We work on LGBT issues and activities within the church and with other community organizations. We also provide continuing education for Allen Avenue UU members, a Welcoming Congregation of the UUA since 2002. We would love to have you join us in our activities in this important work. Please contact the Chair of the Welcoming Congregation for more information.
