Path to Membership

Interested in learning more about First Unitarian Church of Orlando? Curious about how Unitarian Universalism might deepen your spirit? Wondering what membership in the congregation involves and if membership is the next step for you? Wonderful! 

To learn more about the congregation, the 1U Membership Team encourages regular attendance at worship services, participation at the Conversation Corner after the service and other fellowship and justice events. There are also Religious Enrichment opportunities offering more information about 1U and Unitarian Universalism. Get to know this denomination, this congregation and other folks who share this journey together. All our events are announced in the Weekly Update and on the 1U webpage at orlandouu.org.

Exploring UU Values and the Path to Membership 

Love is the power that holds us together and is at the center of our shared values.

This series allows us to explore those values more deeply, and discern how they impact our lives. These shared values inform and transform our individual lives, as well as the congregation as a community. All are welcome to attend, whether you are exploring UU values, considering membership, or already a committed 1U member. 

This image is of a chalice with an overlay of the word Love over the flame, with sixoutstretched arms that create a circle around each of the core values and form a six-petal flower shape. Each arm is a different color, and clockwise they are: Interdependence (Orange), Equity (Red), Transformation (Purple), Pluralism (Blue), Generosity (Green), and Justice (Yellow).

Session 1: Introduction to UU Values and 1U

Justice and Interdependence

Session 2: UU Values
