Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Surprise

Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Surprise An ethics based spirtual community where ALL people and faith traditions are welcome! We hope you will join us!

Our Unitarian Universalist Principles and Sources:

•The inherent worth and dignity of every person
•Justice, equity and compassion in human relations
•Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations
•A free and responsible search for truth and meaning
•The rights of conscience and the use of democratic process within our congregations and in society at large

The goal of world community with peace, liberty and justice for all
•Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part. The living tradition we share draws from many sources:

•Direct experience of that transcending mystery and wonder, affirmed in all cultures, which moves us to renewal of the spirit and an openness to the forces which create and uphold life
•Words and deeds of prophetic women and men which challenge us to confront powers and structures of evil with justice, compassion, and the transforming power of love
•Wisdom from the world's religions which inspires us in our ethical and spiritual life
•Jewish and Christian teaching which call us to respond to God's love by loving our neighbors as ourselves
•Humanist teachings which counsel us to heed the guidance of reason and the results of science, and warn us against idolatries of the mind and spirit
•Spiritual teachings of Earth-centered traditions which celebrate the sacred circle of life and instruct us to live in harmony with the rhythms of nature.
