SUMMARY:All Church Semi-Annual Congregational Meeting 
DESCRIPTION:As members of a Universalist-Unitarian Congregation\, we are not just consumers of the gifts of the church. We are engaged in “congregational polity”. We call our own ministers\, we own our buildings\, we raise our own operating funds\, and we elect our officers. As members engaged in “congregational polity”\, we share in the responsibility of running the church; so\, let’s join together in the Sanctuary\, Sunday\, October 19\, 2025\, from 11:30 to 1:00 for our twice a year Congregational Meeting.
