An LGBTIQA Resource
Welcome
The
First Unitarian Universalist Society of Burlington is a thriving, involved
and diverse congregation integrated with lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgendered,
intersex, questioning, and allied (LGBTIQA) communities. The Society includes
people of every age, economic status, education, enablement, gender, gender
identity, marital status, race, religious belief, and sexual orientation
who join in a caring community to explore life’s mysteries and spiritual
dimensions.
About
the Congregation
We
are an official “Welcoming Congregation,” recognized by the
Unitarian Universalist Association of North America as a congregation
that is welcoming to LGBTIQA people in all areas of congregational life,
including programs, by-laws, literature, social activities and in its
weekly services.” In June, 1999, the First Unitarian Universalist
Society of Burlington voted unanimously to be a Welcoming Congregation.
Our
Activities
The
committee sponsors workshops, shows relevant films and documentaries,
and supports the community and other Society events and groups. We seek
to be a resource for the community at large for gay, lesbian, bisexual,
transgendered, and questioning people and our allies. Events are listed
in Out in the Mountains (both on their web page and in the monthly newspaper)
as well as in the Society’s newsletters and Orders of Service and
on this web page.
