Location and schedule:
The Orcas Island Unitarian Universalist Fellowship meets at 11:00 a.m. the second and fourth Sunday of each month, September through May, at the West Sound Community Hall, Deer Harbor Road at Crow Valley Road in West Sound on Orcas Island, in the San Juan Islands, about 75 miles northwest of Seattle, Washington. All are invited.

Background:
With its historical roots in the Jewish and Christian traditions, Unitarian Universalism is a liberal religion -- that is, a religion that keeps an open mind to the religious questions people have struggled with in all times and places. We believe that personal experience, conscience and reason should be the final authorities in religion, and that in the end religious authority lies not in a book or person or institution, but in ourselves. We are a "non-creedal" religion: we do not ask anyone to subscribe to a creed. UU congregations are self-governing. Authority and responsibility are vested in the membership of the congregation.
