Membership
Joining our Fellowship begins when you tell one of our welcoming greeters you’d like to become a member. He or she will then introduce you to our Membership chair who can answer your questions about our Fellowship and Unitarian Universalism. If you’re attending online, please send a note to UUFSAcontact@gmail.com.
Membership gives you the opportunity to experience all facets of the Fellowship, including taking an active part in the congregation as a board or committee member, and having a voice and vote on the issues that affect our community. In signing the Membership Book you’re saying to the congregation that you will participate financially and share your time, energy, and creativity in support of the Fellowship. Becoming a friend “friend,” rather than a “member,” your name will appear in our Directory and you’ll receive all communications that Members receive, including our monthly newsletter, Quest, and email notices of timely concern. You may serve on committees but not as chair, you do not have a vote in the business of our congregation, nor do you have a financial obligation. We welcome you! At the UUFSA, we come to ask the important questions about life, to discuss them with each other, to grow as individuals in community, always respectful of each other as we listen and care for each other. When you join as a Member it will be our pleasure to present you with a UU-emblazoned tote bag containing a pocket guide to Unitarian Universalism, and other useful information. Our President or Membership chair will call you to set up a meeting to talk about your background and interests. This is a step in your journey, one where contributing creates a sense of belonging, where serving opens new vistas for growth. |
