What is Unitarian Universalism

Unitarian Universalism (UUism) is a liberal religious faith. There are no formal creeds or doctrines and members are encouraged to follow their own paths toward understanding. But people who call themselves UUs generally believe in a set of basic principles.

UU Principles

We covenant to 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.
