“Getting To Know JRUUC” Class 3/21/26

All those interested are invited to attend the next Getting To Know JRUUC Class, which will be held Saturday March 21, from 11:30 a.m. to about 4:30 p.m. in the JRUUC sanctuary. Lunch will be provided by the team. If you need childcare, please notify us by March 5 of the number and ages of children you will be bringing.

Inspired by one another, we’ll explore:

• What we each hold sacred
• Unitarian Universalism
• Gems about JRUUC
• Expectations of membership
• Questions you may have

While this class is valuable for anyone who wants to learn more about our small and mighty congregation, and all are welcome, it’s especially recommended to those considering official membership in our congregation, or those new to Unitarian Universalism. However, taking the class does not obligate you in any way. And it’s a great opportunity to connect with others and build relationships!

If you would like to sign up for the class, have questions about the class or about membership, please contact the Membership Team.

What is Membership?

Adults who feel in sympathy with the purposes and programs of JRUUC can sign the official Membership Book at any time. There is a bi-annual Joining Service to honor our new members. Individuals interested in joining congregation usually attend an Exploring Membership class to learn more about the congregation and Unitarian Universalism.

The life of each JRUUC member can be enriched by the privilege of being a steward of the congregation, thereby bettering our society, our fellow congregants, and ourselves. Supporting our Unitarian Universalist principles is, indeed, a privilege. Members are stewards of our Beloved Community by . . .

• Making a financial commitment / contribution of record
• Participating in worship services
• Voting at Congregational Meetings
• Serving on the Board of Trustees, a Committee, or Task Force
• Volunteering in the Religious Education program or other area
• Supporting Reeb with Talent, Time, and Treasure

Book-signed members receive a copy of the UU World magazine sent to their house, so it’s important to update mailing addresses with the JRUUC Office.

Additionally, JRUUC contributes to the wider UU movement by sending money to the Unitarian Universalist Association and to the MidAmerica Region on behalf of each member. Fair Share contributions for 2016-2017 are $60 and $25 per book-signed member, respectively.
