About our Fellowship

The Lawrence Unitarian Fellowship in Lawrence, Kansas, is a member of the Unitarian Universalist Association. It consists of about 130 members of all generations, some of whom have been attending since our founding year of 1958. In October 2004 our congregation approved the following mission statement:

The Unitarian Fellowship of Lawrence aspires to be a welcoming, intergenerational community that respects individual differences and beliefs. Together, we share the joys and milestones of life as we foster intellectual inquiry and spiritual understanding. In the larger community we promote social action and environmental responsibility.In addition, we affirm the:
