  • Stewardship Campaign – Almost There!

    With 187 committed pledges, the current dollars per pledge is $2,562, where $3,342 ($279 per month) is required to achieve the $625,000 Stewardship Campaign goal. Please help the Stewardship team and the Board of Trustees meet our Stewardship goal. As of April 18, the Stewardship Campaign requires an additional $145,842 which must be committed to avoid difficult decisions from the Board of Trustees.

    Our team is currently contacting those who haven’t pledged yet and asking for their commitment. If you are one of those people, we would love to hear from you so we don’t need to call.

    Review all our Stewardship Campaign details and materials. For more information, contact stewardship@phoenixuu.org.

    Toolbox of Faith
    This Spring we are running a slightly modified version of an old favorite curriculum!  The best modification?  Each kiddo is getting a toolbox and the tools to go with each lesson!  What tools does Unitarian Universalism offer for the challenges of life? Children discover what aspects of UU faith are helpful to them, developing a toolbox of faith.  Toolbox of Faith invites  participants to reflect on the qualities of our Unitarian Universalist faith, such as integrity, courage, and love, as tools they can use in living their lives and building their own faith. Each of the sessions uses a tool as a metaphor for an important quality of our faith such as reflection (symbolized by a mirror), flexibility (duct tape), and justice (a flashlight).

    YRUU is the long-standing, continuing mentoring program for youth in high school. Contemporary discussions about personal, social, cultural, and political topics are infused with the unbridled sense of independence and interdependence of youth. Interactions are based on group discussions, extending to service activities, excursions, and engagement with the UUCP community and beyond.
