| Begin Or Renew Your Membership Journey You are invited deeper into the USG community with a series of classes designed to guide you on your path to membership. We encourage you to attend at least 3 of the 4 class offerings before participating in a New Member Ceremony. Let’s define newcomer. Are you curious about the commitment of membership at USG? Did you join recently and feel you need a “tune up” or have remaining gaps in your understanding of membership? Do you desire a better grasp of Unitarian Universalist theology? Are you curious about the history of the congregation and its culture? Do you want to understand what constitutes the community and how to weave in? We invite all to consider themselves a newcomer and begin this series with us! What Is Offered In Our Newcomer Series Theology 101 with Rev. Hannah October 18 at 12:15pm in the Minister’s Office Learn more about the values of Unitarian Universalism and what it means to be a member at USG. USG History with the Archives Committee November 1 at 12:15pm in the Dining Room Get a tour of the archives and answers to all your USG history questions! Building Tour with Paula Behrens October 25, 12:15pm Explore our beautiful campus. Discover spaces you’ve never stumbled upon before! Circle Worship with Zoë Johnston November 8, 12;15pm Take part in a unique outdoor (or in Sullivan in inclement weather) service led by USG’s Director of Spiritual Development. The next New Member Sunday is November 15. On New Member Sundays, new members join Rev. Hannah at 9:30am to sign the USG membership book during Coffee, Conversation, and Book Signing and then take part in a short ceremony during the service. There is no creed to accept. You are simply asked, “Do you, as our newest members, promise to offer of yourselves your stories, your gifts, and the work of building the Beloved Community?” When you feel ready, fill out the I Want to Become a Member of USG form.
