We come freely and with open hearts to join this congregation. We want to add our hopes and dreams to yours. We promise to support the Unitarian Church of Harrisburg through our unique gifts. We look to you for guidance, fellowship, and support. We wish to live by the values of Unitarian Universalism. When we fall short, please stay in relationship with us and help us do better. We are glad to travel with you.
Congregational Response
We welcome you as an equal member of this congregation, of this faith tradition, and of our shared spiritual journey. We will listen to you. We will support you. You add much to our congregation. We need you. When we fall short, please stay in relationship with us and help us do better. The whole of our church is greater than the sum of its parts. Welcome!
Unison Pledge
Today and each day, we recommit ourselves to the work of Unitarian Universalism in our lives, our families, our congregation, and our world. Grateful for so many who have gone before us, we pledge ourselves to their legacy and to this church’s future.
Love is the spirit of this congregation, and service is our gift. This is our great covenant: to dwell together in peace, to seek the truth in love, and to help one another.
