We are a Welcoming Congregation, recognized as such by the Unitarian Universalist Association. This means we affirm and include as whole people, those who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer. We welcome them at every level of congregational life—in worship, in program, and on social occasions.

As a Welcoming Congregation we have pledged to:

• honor the lives of all people and equally affirm displays of caring and affection without regard for sexual orientation;
• celebrate diversity by using inclusive language and content in worship;
• incorporate an understanding of the experience of lesbian, gay, bisexual,  transgender, and queer persons throughout all of our programs, including religious education;
• affirm and celebrate lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer issues and history;
• affirm marriage equality and conduct same-sex weddings;
• advocate for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer people, promoting justice, freedom, and equality in the larger society, speaking out when the rights and dignity of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer people are at stake;

We recognize that there’s always something more to learn, and remain open to deepening our understanding of the lives of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer people.
