At our 13 December 2020 congregational meeting, we will vote on ratification of the eighth principle as a congregation.
For this Sunday, we welcome anyone who would like to attend and ask questions about the eight principle [although we do encourage you to read this FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) document first because you may find that your questions have already been answered by the FAQ].
We also recommend that you watch the 18 October 2020 worship service presented by the youth on the eighth principle.

Join us as we explore the history of our seven Unitarian Universalist principles and the process by which we will eventually add the eighth principle.
Many congregations throughout the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) have already ratified the eighth principle and the hope is to bring it before the General Assembly in an expedited process to adopt it throughout the UUA.
In our sessions, we are exploring the ways we will not only make the statement but also live into it as a congregation.
We’ll explore the questions that still remain and also discuss the ways we have put the eighth principle into practice and the ways we will continue to do so.
