Membership
Membership provides you with the opportunity to experience all facets of the Fellowship, including taking an active part in the congregation. As a member, sharing your time, talents, and creativity, you play a vital role in our community.
If you’re interested in joining us, please speak to one of our welcoming greeters who can introduce you to our Membership Chairperson. That person will gladly answer your questions about our Fellowship and Unitarian Universalism, as well as explain to you how to become a member. If you’re attending our Sunday services online, please call us at 904-471-2047. We listen to voice messages twice a week. In our lay-led, self-governing community, you have a voice and a vote at our congregational meetings. At these, we approve our budget, elect Officers and Trustees from our membership, and decide important matters per our Bylaws. Our members also serve as Committee Members and Chairs. Together, as volunteers, we contribute to the vital flourishing of our multifaceted community. In participating, we enjoy the opportunity to develop rewarding relationships with fellow members. As a member, you’re connected! Your name and contact information appear on our Member Directory; you receive, via email, our monthly newsletter, Quest, notices announcing activities and events, and contact information updates. Our financially self-supporting organization relies on annual member pledges, as well as fundraisers, donations, and Sunday service collections. Upon becoming a member, we invite you to sign our Membership Book, which dates back to the founding of our Fellowship (1986), and complete a contact information form. It will be our pleasure to present you with a UU-emblazoned tote bag. Its contents include: a welcoming letter from our President inviting you to meet to talk about your background and interests, a pocket guide to Unitarian Universalism, a Member Directory, and more! Please explore the rest of our website to learn more about who we are. At our services, feel free to talk to any of our members. We want you to feel welcome! |
