Jefferson Unitarian Church

Steering committee: John Roesch, Miq Miquelon, Doug Everitt, Jean Decker, Mari Cowley

The Jefferson Unitarian Church CUUPS (Covenant of UU Pagans) come together because of our reverence for Nature and our instinct for celebration, and our longing for a community which shares these things. We recognize kindred hearts and shared purposes. We are an Earth-based, spiritually oriented, caring group. We are non-denominational and welcome all paths and Traditions. We celebrate the Sabbats and Full Moons as a community, and we hope to enhance the understanding of Earth-based religions through classes and discussion groups. Please join us in creating a group where we honor both the Goddess and the God, recognizing that there is a bit of the Divine in everyone and everything.

We meet each month on 2nd Thursdays and 4th Wednesdays, at 7:00pm in the Willis Chapel. Open Full Moon and Open Sabbat Rituals are held either on a regular meeting night or sometimes on a separate night close to the astro date, either in the Chapel or on the back patio. Our calendar is at www.meetup.com/JUCCUUPS/calendar/list

All JUC CUUPS events are open to everyone regardless of affiliation, including people who are committed to other groups. We welcome families and can provide childcare in the event that wee ones need it. Due to the church childcare budget being reduced, we must arrange childcare in advance and be prepared to share the cost. If you will need childcare provided, it’s helpful for us to know a minimum of 6 days in advance.

The Sixth Source of Unitarian Universalism draws from spiritual teachings of Earth-centered traditions which celebrate the sacred circle of life and instruct us to live in harmony with the rhythms of nature. Jefferson Unitarian Church welcomes JUC CUUPS and our diversity.

The Covenant of Unitarian Universalist Pagans (CUUPS) is a continental organization for people whose spirituality is Earth-based. It is a forum for those who are interested in the Seventh Principle/Sixth Source of Unitarian Universalism, and is an opportunity for UUs who are curious about or involved in Paganism to teach, learn and network.

Please come visit and get to know us. The energy is wonderful and we are building great community, with your support and help.

We, the CUUPS chapter of Jefferson Unitarian Church, value personal responsibility and integrity, diversity and compassion, competency and education in the pursuit of spiritual balance.

We offer our talents and abilities in service to the community by providing celebrations to honor the Earth and its cycles.

We provide support to those seeking to live a life more in balance with nature by exploring the teachings and traditions of various pagan and Earth-centered religions and philosophies.

We seek both mirth and reverence, and we honor the Divine in many forms.
