WITHIN each of us

Authentic spirituality rooted in courage and personal growth

  • I am continually inspired to deepen my spiritual understanding with the love and support of the OUUC community.
  • As I grow and learn, I practice my faith, act courageously, and create and appreciate beauty.

AMONG our congregants

Joyful connections built on inclusion, equity, and support

  • We welcome all persons searching for a spiritual home. No matter your personal identity or your circumstances, you are accepted and cherished here.
  • Our covenant is the foundation of strong relationships. We deepen our connections as we learn, love, work, play, sing, and find meaning together.

BEYOND our doors

Thriving communities grounded in justice and interconnection

  • We are a reliable, collaborative presence working with our allies to protect the rights of all people and the well-being of our planet.
  • As we recognize the intrinsic value of all persons, we reach out with care and compassion to preserve health, dignity, and freedom for our neighbors and beyond.

THROUGHOUT our organization

Resilient systems steeped in spirituality and transparency

  • We act to dismantle racism and other oppressions in ourselves, our congregation, and the larger community.
  • We operate with transparency, sustainability, integrity, and inclusion in all aspects of our organization.
  • We encourage all congregants to share their talents and to participate in leadership opportunities.
