Our Unitarian Universalist Principles

The Umpqua Unitarian Universalist congregation is a diverse congregation. Though each of us travels our own spiritual pathway, we find common value in our seven guiding principles.

The inherent worth and dignity of every person;
Justice, equity and compassion in human relations;
Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations;
A free and responsible search for truth and meaning;

The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large;
The goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all;
Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.

“LIVING AS COMMUNITY WITHIN THE 7 UU PRINCIPLES”

I ask myself: Have I spent time discovering and naming the beliefs and principles that have shaped my life? Are these beliefs I truly prize and cherish? In what ways do I do that? Did I choose them freely or "inherit" them from my parents or peer group? Am I willing to publicly affirm my beliefs? How have I done that? Do I find those beliefs within the Unitarian Universalist 7 principles? Am I consistent in acting on my Principles and in what ways?
