What Do UUs Believe?
As Unitarian Universalists (UUs), we invite you to bring your beliefs when you come through our doors. We welcome a diversity of faith backgrounds and spiritual practices, and we encourage each other’s spiritual growth. Our focus is on how we live together, both as people and as creatures sharing our living planet.
Love is the power that holds us together and is at the center of our shared values. The values we share include all the following, which we hold as inseparable and deeply interconnected:
- Interdependence: We honor the interdependent web of all existence and acknowledge our place in it.
- Pluralism: We are all sacred beings, diverse in culture, experience, and theology.
- Justice: We work to be diverse multicultural Beloved Communities where all feel welcome and can thrive.
- Transformation: We adapt to the changing world.
- Generosity: We cultivate a spirit of gratitude and hope.
- Equity: We declare that every person is inherently worthy and has the right to flourish with dignity, love, and compassion.
To give you an opportunity to learn more directly about the UU principles and history, we periodically offer New to UU classes. For more information, contact Diane Oberbeck, Chair of the Membership Committee.
