Vision & Mission Page

Welcome to First Unitarian’s Vision & Mission webpage! Here you can engage with fellow members of First Unitarian as we seek a common vision and mission for our beloved church. We are so glad you are here!

Meet our team:

From left, Anne Marsh, Amy Sun, Geri Knoebel, Mikaela Renz-Whitmore, & Peter Chestnut.

In this time of transition, we want to be clear about who we are as a congregation. Our vision-mission is part of how we represent ourselves to potential ministers and decide what makes a good match.

Vision-Mission Survey

The Vision and Mission Task Force aims to gather congregational input to draft new vision and mission statements. Our goal is to articulate the purpose of our church and what we want to be in five years. By producing a clear shared identity, values, vision, mission, and guiding questions will anchor the upcoming Search Process for our next senior minister.

We want you to engage in this process!

Please take our survey. You can scan this QR code to the right, or follow this link: First Unitarian Vision & Mission Survey.

We will have this survey open until August 9th. We want your input!

Don’t know a Vision from a Mission Statement? No problem!
