Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Santa Fe

All who wish to be part of the UUCSF community are welcome.  One can join as a member or become affiliated as a contributing friend.  Joining the congregation demonstrates an individual’s wish to identify with Unitarian Universalist values, to abide by our covenant, and to contribute to the congregation’s social and financial health. Membership is not a step to be taken lightly. Although it is a simple process, it requires a commitment of time, talent and treasure. Those considering joining are encouraged to attend a Newcomer Orientation Series conducted by the officers and members of the Membership Committee. An Ingathering is held during the second service a Sunday or two following the Newcomer class, wherein new members are welcomed into the congregation, sign the Membership Book, pledge to abide by the covenant, and make an annual financial pledge. We also urge each new member to sign up to volunteer for one of our committees, as well as join a Covenant Group and participate in their Neighborhood Connections group.  

Newcomer Orientation sessions are presented in the fall, winter and spring, so that new members are eligible and encouraged to vote in subsequent semi-annual congregational meetings. At these informal meetings, interested persons receive information about Unitarian Universalism, and have the opportunity to meet fellow new members as well as members of the congregation. Opportunities to discuss Unitarian Universalist spirituality and questions about membership in the congregation are provided.  Contact the Member Programs Coordinator for additional information about the next scheduled Newcomers Series. Childcare is available by reservation.
