Got questions? Speak with the Board Chair or any lay leader during our weekly Coffee Hour. Newcomers are also encouraged to attend an Inquirer Class which can be scheduled upon request. The Inquirer class is an opportunity to learn about the Fellowship and Unitarian Universalism, to answer questions, and to explore the responsibilities and benefits of membership in this congregation.

Becoming a Member
A person of any race, sex, color, national origin, gender identity or sexual orientation who is at least eighteen years old may become a voting Member of this Fellowship by participating in a Newcomer’s Orientation, agreeing to the Bylaws, and signing the Membership book. Membership is maintained by continued participation in the Fellowship and by making an annual contribution of record either in service hours and/or in monetary donations.

Persons who are 14-17 years old may sign the membership book as Youth Members. Youth Members participate fully in the life of the Fellowship, including serving on committees, but may not vote at congregational meetings or serve as a Trustee.

Becoming a Friend
Friends are encouraged to participate in all aspects of the Fellowship (except serving on the Board of Trustees and the Nominating Committee). Friends are invited to have their name and contact information included in the directory, and to receive the UUFSM newsletter via email. Friends do not need to make annual contributions of record and may not vote at business meetings.
