WELCOME

   

The Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Beaufort, South Carolina is an intentional community of diverse people loving and supporting each other in our search for spiritual, emotional, and intellectual growth. We embrace the seven Principles and Purposes of the Unitarian Universalist Association of Congregations and speak about them confidently to the broader community so they may know who we are and what we hold true. We are led by the Rev. Nan L. White. Our services are varied in content, form and leadership. We welcome everyone. 


    With the exception of summer Sundays, we provide religious education for all children during the worship hour and invite members and visitors to stay for coffee, cookies, and conversation after the service.

 How to Find Us:

    We meet at the Wardle YMCA, 1801 Richmond Avenue, Port Royal, South Carolina most Sundays at 10:00 am. The YMCA is located in Port Royal, one block south of Ribaut Road (Hwy 802).

                         Laura M. Towne's Birthday Celebration                               

 We celebrated Laura M. Towne's Birthday on the weekend of May 4th at the Penn Center. It was a wonderful weekend! Annette S. Marquis, District Executive of the Thomas Jefferson District of the UUA had this to say about it:

"This incredible weekend was one of the clearest example I have ever witnessed of a UU congregation putting its faith into action in their home community. It didn't matter that they are only a small congregation of 60 members. With the clarity of their vision and their obvious passion, the results of their efforts rivaled the social action efforts of our largest congregations. Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Beaufort is truly a model we can all learn from."
