Welcome to DUUF and congratulations on taking the next step toward membership! We are so excited you are joining us!
Our By-laws state that
…Voting Membership is open to any person aged eighteen (18) or older who is in sympathy with the church’s purposes, principles, and programs by
(a) signing the membership book in the presence of the Minister or a member of the Board of Directors, and
(b) pledging to commit time, talent, and financial resources to the church, and
(c) making a contribution of record as defined by board policy.
In addition, youth aged sixteen through seventeen or those who have completed the Coming of Age Religious Education Program may become Associate Members by completing the same process.
Members of DUUF are entitled to run for positions on the Board of Trustees and serve in committee leadership, as well as having the right to vote in congregational meetings. They can also participate in rites of passage (weddings, memorial services, baby dedications, coming of age, name change ceremonies, etc.) at no charge.
DUUF members are automatically members of the larger Unitarian Universalist Association and receive a free subscription to the UU World. Members have opportunities to serve as delegates to the UUA General Assembly and are invited to participate in other regional and national gatherings and programs.
Voting members are the backbone of our fellowship and ensure our ongoing strength as a congregation today and into the future.
If you’ve been attending services and have learned enough to think about becoming a member, please follow the link to our Invitation to Membership. Invitation to Membership
