Welcome!
Mindful of our community's most vulnerable and those who wish to join long distance, CUUB's Sunday Services are offered at 10:30 am in person or by Zoom. The Zoom link can be found on the Home page.
​
At CUUB, we encourage people to live the questions. We don't claim to have all the answers, and we don't tell you what to believe. We are a community of people from different backgrounds who come together to support each other and search for truth and meaning together. CUUB offers a safe place of comfort for people whose spirituality doesn't always fit within the confines of traditional religion, or within any religion.
​
Our minister, as well as guest speakers, ministers from other congregations, and our own members provide sermons on Sundays. Sermon topics are varied, from environmental, social justice, spiritual, historical, and philosophical topics. We like to say, "Come back next week for something completely different!"

How to Become a Member at CUUB
CUUB is a growing and thriving congregation of people who come together for different reasons yet still respect each individual's spiritual path. As we grow, we try to make sure that each new member finds his or her place within our congregation while also understanding the needs of the congregation. As we build our community, we welcome you to join us.
Please know that you are welcome to visit us for as long as you like and participate in congregational life as much as you would like. There are a few activities or roles are exclusive to members only (voting, participation on the leadership teams, serving on the Board of Trustees, acting as a small group team chair, etc.). We have many 'Friends of CUUB' who are not ready to make their membership official, and we care for and embrace them as part of our community.
These are the steppingstones to membership:
​
Understand Our Faith
Better understand our faith and congregation by attending the “Prospective Member Orientation” class. Before becoming a member, it is important to know the basic principles of Unitarian Universalism, a bit about the history of our non-creedal faith, and the common concerns and workings of this congregation. We offer a "Prospective Member Orientation" class several times a year. Please contact the Membership Team to find out when the next class is being offered.
​
Consider Your Commitment
Consider carefully your commitment to the congregation and the UU faith. After learning more about our faith and congregation, we ask that you examine your values and determine whether you can commit yourself to the work of this congregation.
Attend & Participate
Attend Sunday services and participate in congregational activities. We gather as a community and connect with one another by sharing the common experience offered by Sunday services.
An important aspect of membership is active participation in the larger congregation. You will find it easier to meet people and feel part of the congregation if you also join in small groups within the congregation. There are many diverse activities in social justice, children’s spiritual exploration, social groups, etc.

Attend a Prospective Member Orientation Class
The class is offered several times a year. Please contact the Membership Team to find out the date and time for the next class.
Attend Membership Sunday and sign the Membership Book
We will have a short meeting in the Minister’s office before Membership Sunday, where you will have the opportunity to sign the membership book and prepare for the official membership welcoming ceremony. We hope that you will take pride in adding your signature to our membership book that holds the names of members of this congregation back to 2000. Our congregation holds welcoming ceremonies for new members during our Sunday services several times each year.
Financial Commitment
Make a financial pledge to the congregation. All active members are required to make a financial pledge (or obtain a waiver) to the congregation according to their means. Our primary source of support comes from our members who make financial gifts to the congregation. By pledging, you are demonstrating your commitment to the programs and activities of your congregation; this allows us to budget for the coming year.
