Membership
Membership Class Open Now:
We ask that congregants who are interested in becoming members take the Membership Class. In December, we’re offering an extended single-day class in which participants have an opportunity to get clear on what they personally are committing to as church members and what a mutual, reciprocal church community commits to them in return.
New to First U
Newcomers Circle
Sundays, Jan. 11-Feb. 1, 2026
1:30-3:00 on Zoom
Newcomers Circles create a rich, supportive environment in which to share and engage our emerging UU values, theology, identity, and sense of belonging. This 4-session gathering is a caring and structured group to dig deeper into Unitarian Universalism and further connection at church. This Circle is intended for members and non-members alike who are discerning if and/or how they will commit to and continue their spiritual journey at First U as Unitarian Universalists.
