UUCJ continues 100 years of Unitarianism

in Jacksonville -- 46 years as UUCJ in our present beautiful setting.        [History]

The Unitarian Universalist Church of Jacksonville (UUCJ) is a religious and spiritual community celebrating Unitarian Universalist principles. We commit to caring for one another with acceptance

and respect. We pledge to sustain a sacred space where together we seek religious freedom, personal growth, life's meaning, and social justice. Through our actions, we serve as a catalyst for social change.

As Universalists we seek truth and meaning in life and believe that

everyone will find peace in death. We think that each religion has

part of the truth, and that no religion has all the truth.

As Unitarians we believe that life is an evolving, creative unity,

and that respect for science and knowledge complements true religion.

Promise – A declaration assuring that one will or will not do something; a vow; an indication of something favorable to come; an expectation of future excellence or success.  As a community of faith, we make a promise to one another -- a covenant.

We are happy to report that, by overwhelming majority of member votes, UUCJ has called Reverend Ronald A. Hersom as our new Minister. Please join us in welcoming Rev. Hersom -- his first official day in the pulpit will be August 15, 2010.
