Governance
As a Unitarian Universalist congregation, we govern ourselves
democratically. We make our own bylaws, set our own qualifications for
membership, elect our own officers, call our own minister, and hire our
own staff. As a member congregation of the Unitarian Universalist
Association, we support their programs as they support ours, but we
remain free to chart our own course.
At our Annual Meeting in May, we elect our officers, approve the church
budget, and make major decisions affecting the church. Under our
bylaws,
other meetings of the congregation may be called during the church year
with adequate notice.
Among our elected officers, the Standing Committee conducts the
business
affairs
of the church, the Board of Trustees manages its trust funds, and the
Deacons advise the minister on the spiritual life of the church,
including worship.
