Community
Finding Connection
Shoreline Unitarian Universalist congregational life offers many ways to get involved depending on our interests. The Congregational Life Committee supports our newcomers and members in finding connections with each other and our community.
Check out this short video below.
Worship
Regular attendance at worship services and church activities helps people connect with members and friends who share our values and liberal faith. It is an opportunity to examine our principles and purposes and see how our lives can be enriched and we can enrich the lives of others.
Activities & Events
Attend some of our activities and events. Explore the website and weekly newsletter for more information about who we are and what we do. Our Social Events and Activities Committee (SEA) offers a variety of opportunities to meet others and enjoy community along with the Women’s and Men’s Groups, Choir, Potlucks, Mah Jongg, Canasta, Pop-Up Hikes and Book Club that meet regularly.
8Speak with one of our Congregational Life Committee chairs if you have questions. We have booklets available to further your understanding of the UU faith.
Shared Ministry and Living Our Faith
Participation in the life of the congregation may also involve joining a committee or a social justice project, helping out in the Religious Exploration program, or serving the broader community through helping those in need. Practice our shared values not only on Sunday mornings but by living our faith in everyday life.
Our shared covenant is expressed through a set of inseparable and deeply interdependent shared values.
Becoming a Member
Becoming a member of Shoreline Unitarian Universalist is a natural progression after you have been attending services regularly and you feel ready to be more engaged in our community. You are encouraged to take whatever time you need to discern whether Shoreline UU is your spiritual home.
The first step to becoming a member of the congregation is to meet with our Minister. You can speak with the Congregational Life Chair about your interest in joining or speak directly to the Minister about a time to have a conversation about membership.
You will sign our membership book with the Minister and the Stewardship Committee will speak with you about a financial pledge. We will include you in a New Member Recognition Ceremony which is part of a regular Sunday service.
Caring
Here at Shoreline UU, we support one another. If you are in need, our Caring Liaison would like to know how we might help.
Our members provide meals, offer rides to our services, appointments, or visit the home bound. Our community is generous with our time and hope you will contact our minister if you are in need of pastoral care or the caring liaison if you can offer assistance to those in our congregation who are in need.
