During the summer of 2021, the Board of Trustees initiated a series of listening sessions where we learned from congregants what is most important to our fellowship.  Held in the spring of 2022, these listening sessions, which were very dynamic and well-attended, led to the development of the following impact statement and eight ways that effectively serve as our current strategic plan. 

Our Love Impacts Lives

Eight Ways

The people of UUFCO, across the generations, together:

  •  Grow in spiritual depth and practice. 

  • Engage our children in a lived experience of Unitarian Universalism and faith development.

  •  Create an ever-wider and inclusive circle of belonging.

  •  Embrace our fellowship’s work for social justice and focus it for impact and clarity.

  • Articulate our Unitarian Universalist identity and understand our covenantal faith.

  •  Ask for, receive, and generously give compassionate care during the times of joy, sorrow, and transition.

  •  Contribute time, talent, and treasure to sustain and steward the fellowship.

  • Develop and expand antiracist, multicultural commitments.
