Greetings and welcome to UU Valdosta!

We have begun to expand our virtual interactions through Zoom gatherings during these challenging times!   Please see our May / June newsletter for details.  We are continuing our Share-the-Plate activities by supporting two organizations this summer, South Georgia Partnership to End Homelessness (preparing lunch bags of non-perishable items) and the South Georgia Migrant Farmworkers Clinic.   And we have a new way for you to contribute to those efforts – PayPal!   Please see the PayPal link below for you to make donations to Share-the-Plate or to send in your pledge contributions in support of the UU Church of Valdosta.  Thank you!

In keeping with the recommendations of the Unitarian Universalist Association, we will not be meeting in person for at least the next few Sunday mornings in keeping with physical distancing guidelines to prevent the rapid spread of coronavirus / COVID-19.   But we want to continue our social connections with all and we encourage you to connect with us through our FaceBook page or by email uuvaldosta@yahoo.com or president@uuvaldosta.net. 

We will be making suggestions for how to participate virtually with other UU congregations who are making services available through online resources.   For example, the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Gainesville will be streaming their service live on Sunday mornings, beginning at 10:50 a.m.  One does not need a FaceBook account to participate.  Simply visit UU Fellowship of Gainesville’s Facebook page  at facebook.com/uugainesville/, starting at 10:50 am Sunday.  As the service is streamed, you are encouraged to engage through the comments to let UU Fellowship of Gainesville and Rev. Lunsford know we are with them.

In Community,

The UU Valdosta Board

Mission Statement

The Unitarian Universalist Church of Valdosta is committed to building a community of acceptance and love, where all people may strive for intellectual, moral and spiritual enlightenment. We offer a place to celebrate life’s passages and to join in social action on behalf of local and global communities.

I believe every inch of America is shared,  from sea to shining sea.

I believe we make it holy by who we welcome and by how we relate to each other.

— Eboo Patel

Living the Welcoming Congregation

Valdosta has been named a Welcoming Congregation!

We are an LGBTQ Welcoming Congregation.   “Living the Welcoming Congregation” is a voluntary program for UUA congregations to deepen their commitment to inclusive practices, ensuring that all people are welcomed through our doors.   Please join us in our efforts to reach out to the lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and queer community to create a place welcoming to all!   For questions, send an e-mail to uuvaldosta@yahoo.com
