Friday Afternoon Call to Action Group

The Social Justice Committee has formed a new group to meet every Friday at church from 2 to 3pm to take action. Together we will make calls & write letters/postcards to our legislators, and participate in get out the vote efforts. We come together in community to share ideas and learn from each other as we navigate these difficult times in our country.

Share the Plate

The May Share the Plate recipient is MaineTransNet. MaineTransNet is a community based organization led by transgender people for transgender people. They provide peer-to-peer support groups, social and community events, advocacy for the transgender community across Maine, and training for medical, mental health, and social service providers. They also maintain a welcoming thrift shop geared towards trans customers called Safe Combinations.

Sign up to lead a Summer Service

That’s right. From June 22 through August 31, services atA2U2 will be lay-led. This is your chance to craft the service you’d like to share with our community. It’s pretty much up to you what goes into a summer service beyond some bare bones. Talking, doing, music, not talking, whatever you think will bring your message best.

What people are saying

At Allen Avenue UU Church I found a community of like-minded people without the religious dogma that drove me away from the church of my youth.

Sue Butler

What I found at Allen Avenue UU Church is a community that accepts me for who I am and what I believe, yet has people with different beliefs I can learn from; there is no pressure to believe a specific creed.

Trudy McNulty

When Jerry and I visited A2U2 over 20 years ago we were looking for community. From our first Sunday here, we knew A2U2 could become the answer to our search. Who can resist a place where you feel needed and valued for who you really are?

Barbara Freeman

At Allen Avenue UU Church I’ve felt such acceptance for myself and my children since day one. A frequent refrain in services is that the noises and wiggles of the youngest members are the sign of a healthy church. I’ve been able to relax at church and let my kids be kids, it’s wonderful.

Emily O'Neill

At Allen Avenue UU Church we have the opportunity to find out what matters most to each of us in response to life’s deepest questions and then to act on those beliefs. There’s no reason to do that alone; it’s so much more fun with others.

Sam Sherry

Why am I a member of Allen Avenue UU Church? It can best be summarized in two words: community and beliefs. I have been part of various church communities all of my life. As my religious beliefs changed I had trouble getting up each Sunday and reciting things I no longer believed in. Then I discovered Unitarian Universalism where we say we believe in Love, Truth, Helping Others, and the Sanctity of Life. That I can agree with.

Dave Juers

Allen Avenue UU Church is a loving, supportive community that gives us wings to fly and explore our own spirituality in order to become the people we truly want to be.
