To build a Unitarian Universalist community that transforms lives and empowers people to serve the world.
(This vision was adopted in November 2023 as part of our strategic plan.)
The Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Raleigh aspires to be a loving community that is intentionally inclusive, spiritually nourishing, and committed to leading social justice.
(This Covenant was adopted on June 3, 2012, by a vote of UUFR’s membership.)
We, the members of the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Raleigh, hereby covenant to:
- Value what unites us over those things that divide us.
- Practice patience, listen carefully, and speak our truth with compassion.
- Hold ourselves accountable for our actions and commitments, and assume good intentions on the part of others.
- Reflect carefully about the potential results of our words and actions before we express ourselves.
- Respect and support those we have chosen to lead us — our called ministers, and our professional staff.
- When differences arise, speak directly, with kindness and respect, to those with whom we disagree, and not gossip about others.
Note: All adults and youth (including members, friends, guests, and visitors) who participate in any Fellowship programs or activities are expected to honor the Fellowship’s Covenant of Right Relations.
