Rev. Sunny McMillan, worship leader, and Tom Nicholas & Lucy Kesterson, celebrants

In its 2001 report on Belonging: The Meaning of Membership, the UUA writes that membership "is about how we help the people who come to Unitarian Universalism live out their faith within our congregations, and how the congregations assist them in this endeavor."  Today, as we celebrate and welcome six new members to BUF in a New Member Ceremony, we also will explore how we create a community of belonging and faith that is so much more than a list of names in a membership book.
