Responsibilities & Benefits of Membership
Becoming a member is a commitment to consider carefully.
Membership brings with it the responsibility to help our congregation
thrive, and to develop yourself as a person of liberal religion.
We encourage you to think of the items on the list below as
guidelines for your participation in the life of KUUF. Individual
circumstances and inclinations will, of course, determine the degree to
which you participate -- but we thought you'd like to know what we desire
from our members.
When you become a member, we hope that you will:
-
Attend Sunday services regularly, and be involved in other events in the
life of the congregation
-
Develop your spirituality
-
Volunteer by serving on a committee or task group
-
Make a financial pledge
-
Be involved in social outreach and service
-
Connect to the wider UU movement
What do you Gain by Becoming a Member?
You become a voting, decision-making member of an
organization which encourages different points of view, and does its best
to respect those differences. You are empowered to take part in our
congregational democracy.
You gain a community, a place to belong, a place where you
and your values and ideas and energy can be put in service to make a
difference in the world.
You become part of a 400-year movement for religious freedom
-- part of a movement that encourages people to be responsible for their
own individual paths toward wholeness.
You gain an identity with people who hold compatible
values,
who are working to uphold the dignity and worth of every human being, to
preserve and protect the earth's environment, and toward a world without
terrorism or war.
You contribute significantly to the growth in society of
these values, as secured by the continued vitality of the Unitarian
Universalist movement over time and lifetimes.
