We the member congregations of the Unitarian Universalist Association, covenant to affirm and promote these principles:
 

• The inherent dignity and worth of every person.

• Justice, equity and compassion in human relations.

• Acceptance of one another and encouragement to Spiritual growth in our congregations.

• A free and responsible search for truth and meaning.

• The right of conscience and the use of the democratic Process within our congregations and in society at large.

• The goal of a world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all.

• Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.

Unitarian Universalism (UU) draws from many sources:

• Direct experience of that transcending mystery and wonder, affirmed in all cultures, which moves us to a renewal of the spirit and an openness to the forces which create and uphold life.

• Words and deeds of prophetic women and men which challenge us to confront powers and structures of evil with justice, compassion, and the transforming power of love.

• Wisdom from the world's religions which inspires us in our ethical and spiritual life.

• Jewish and Christian teachings which call us to respond to God's love by loving our neighbors as ourselves.

• Humanist teachings which counsel us to heed the guidance of reason and the results of science, and warn us against idolatries of the mind and spirit.

• 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.
