Unsure about growth, we did a visioning process last winter and made a landmark decision to grow. Lengthy planning process. Went to two services in January. UU congregations run themselves democratically. Board of Trustees and Program Council.
Members determine minister, budget, program.
Certifies ministers, puts on conferences, trainings, publishes literature, lets the right hand know what the left is doing. 200,000 UUs in US, growing again, unlike most mainline Protestant churches. Opportunities to meet other UUs at district events and General Assembly. Becoming a Member Becoming part of this community requires participation beyond Sunday morning. Working within the community - you'll see us everywhere.
