UU Principles
We live by the generous Spirit of
God and the daring example of Jesus:
Extending extravagant hospitality to
neighbors and strangers from all walks of life;
Gathering around a welcome table to break
bread, practice generosity and grace, and
share the deep gladness of faith;
Practicing compassion and nonviolence in
service with others;
Building an interfaith movement for justice
and peace in our time;
Cherishing the many mysteries of earth and
sky, flesh and spirit, faith and doubt, courage
and vulnerability;
Learning and risking the ways of Jesus,
forgiving, loving, daring, sharing, praising God
in all things.
We affirm and promote:
The inherent worth and dignity of every person;
Justice, equity and compassion in human relations;
Acceptance of one another and encouragement
to spiritual growth in our congregations;
A free and responsible search for truth and
meaning;
The right of conscience and the use of the
democratic process within our congregations
and in society at large;
The goal of world community with peace, liberty
and justice for all;
Respect for the interdependent web of all
existence of which we are a part.
We live by these values and principles as
part of a larger liberal religious tradition
