Our Congregation

The Unitarian Congregation of Mendon and Uxbridge (UCMU) is a growing congregation with a current membership of about 75.  There is a broad mix of ages and interests with a number of new young families as well as a number of long time members.

We are a congregation committed to making our activities available to all members of the community. Our building is wheelchair accessible. We host a variety of community organizations. These include the Quilt Guild, an AA meeting, and the Jean Cahill Social Recreation Dances. We seek to make our building available and accessible for the service of the larger community.

The Unitarian Congregation of Mendon and Uxbridge is a member of the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA), which has international headquarters in Boston. Each congregation, however, is autonomous, and its members alone make all its institutional decisions. 

The UCMU strives to:

• Provide a forum for the free expression of religious ideas in the Blackstone Valley.
• Support members in their life journeys.
• Recognize members' significant life passages such as birth, coming of age, marriage, death.
• Honor the commitment of the church community to the self and that of the self to the church community and the world-at-large.
• Better the community within our families, the church, and the world-at-large.
• Cultivate and appreciate diversity of mind, body, and spirit.
• Build on our history, to live fully in the present, and to work for a more healthy, inclusive, prosperous future.
