| Dec. 5 | DUUF Annual Holiday Fair, 9 am to mid-afternoon Our annual Fair, in conjunction with fairs at several of the churches in Durham, has been taking place for many years. We have become known for our delicious homemade soups (both to eat on the premises – check out the DUUF café! - and to take away), also for our homemade breads and other excellent home-baked items. A small selection of homemade preserves is another part of our tradition, as are our beautiful holiday swags and table decorations. We also feature a White Elephant table (where you may find anything from bicycles to beads!), plus books, and children’s items. More details on activities both before and at the Fair are on p. 3 of our November newsletter. Please come and join in the fun! |
Our Mission Statement
The real test of our religion is the way we live our lives. The Durham Unitarian Universalist Fellowship affirms the seven principles of Unitarian Universalism.
We seek to be a place in which each person's unique worth and beliefs are acknowledged and respected and where each person's voice may be heard – a place in which each may freely explore his or her own spiritual path.
We join with others in reaching out to make the world more just, and commit ourselves to caring for the earth and all that makes up the web of life.
We strive to be a source of inspiration, a forum for intellectual exchange, a wellspring of comfort to those in need, and a nurturing, supportive community for each other and our children.
The Durham Unitarian Universalist Fellowship has been accepted as a candidate for the UUA's Green Sanctuary program and is working toward certification. The Durham Unitarian Universalist Fellowship has begun the process of formally becoming a Welcoming Congregation, fully inclusive of those who are bisexual, gay, lesbian, and transgendered. We are also in the midst of plans for renovation and expansion of our Fellowship building to accommodate our growing congregation! |
