Welcome to UUCFM

Where Religion and Reason Meet!

Welcome to the Unitarian Universalist Church of Fort Myers. Ours is a non-creedal congregation, which means, simply, there is no test of membership, except your own sense that this is a spiritual home for you, and your willingness to honor the sacred heritage of Unitarian Universalism. Rather than a creed, in our worship, we pledge a covenant to each other. It says:

Love is the spirit of this church
And service is its law.
This is our great covenant:
To dwell together in peace,
To seek the truth in love,
And to help one another.
~James Vila Blake

“Interdependence Day”

- Rev Allison Farnum

Today we reflect on the responsibilities of freedom as a non-creedal faith and our responsibilities as citizens or guests participating in “a free country.”

The service will be at 10:30 a.m. Sunday July 5th.

UUCFM GREEN MISSION

"Let it be known that the Board of Trustees of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Fort Myers, in the name of our GREEN MISSION, decrees that leaders and committee chairs of this church support the concept of a sustainable community. In doing so, we encourage the development of a workshop on the topic and ask that our leaders attend. The leadership of the organization will set forth a plan of involvement that will be taken up by one and all and lo we will flourish as a model to the greater community of which we are a part."

It is now up to us to implement the decree --to plan an event, in which all the constituencies and committees of the church are involved, on the topic of sustainability. The working title of the occasion we will plan is Building a Culture of Sustainability. To get involved, contact Dave Parton, Barbara Mannix or Marge Gonzales, or contact the Eco Preserve.
