FUNNs Larger Faith Committee seeks your input! 

Our membership certification is due to the UUA by February 2nd, and this year there are three voting requests for what to work on during the General Assembly this year in June in Baltimore.
Please send your feedback &/or questions regarding the below questions to the Larger Faith Team by this Saturday, February 1.

Congregational Poll

Vote on the following Congregational Study/Action Issues (CSAIs) your congregation thinks should be added to the 2025 General Assembly agenda for four years of study, reflection and action. Twenty-five percent of all certified congregations must participate and a majority of those congregations participating must vote in favor for the CSAIs to be included in the agenda. Learn more.

  • Voting 'Yes' means your congregation wants the CSAI to be added to the 2025 General Assembly Agenda.
  • Voting 'No' means your congregation does NOT want the CSAI to be added to the 2025 General Assembly Agenda.
  • 'Abstain' means your congregation is being present only to contribute to the twenty-five percent quorum.

Congregations who do not want to participate in the Congregational Poll can 'Opt Out'.

  • Abolition is Faith Formation

    The Church of the Larger Fellowship proposes a CSAI which utilizes what we've learned through our Worthy Now Prison Ministry to bring Abolition Faith Formation to the wider UU community. We define Abolition with a holistic lens that includes how to establish transformative justice practices all the way through dismantling the prison industrial complex. Abolition and how it relates to our Unitarian Universalist theology is largely not understood or misunderstood as a foundational practice of our faith.

       
  • Fat Liberation: Building Justice and Inclusion for Larger Bodies

    Fat people are discriminated against in healthcare, employment, and housing and stigmatized in all areas of life. Fat liberation seeks to end this injustice, which exists at the intersection of racism, sexism, ableism, and capitalism. By studying weight bias, Unitarian Universalists can advocate for the acceptance of all bodies.

       
  • Housing: Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

    Access to safe and affordable housing will reduce suffering and save lives. The problems of systemic racism, economic injustice, ageism and ableism, homophobia and transphobia prevent many people from obtaining adequate shelter. Purchasing or renting adequate housing can be difficult. Individuals and families ask congregations for sanctuary.
