congregational mission
“The transforming power of love is our core belief.
We embody a sanctuary of compassion, integrity, and respect.
We champion justice, equity, and peace.”
Greater Nashville UU is committed to congregational governance according to the Governance and Ministry model detailed in Dan Hotchkiss's book Governance and Ministry: Rethinking Board Leadership.
In it, he explains that the Board is accountable to the mission of the congregation for the wise use of congregational resources to advance that mission.
In January of 2017, after a 6 month process of discussion, review, and consultation, the congregation adopted a new mission statement.
This mission guides the congregation now as we work to become ever more welcoming and more deeply engaged in making Nashville a kinder place to call home.
