About Us

The Church of the Larger Fellowship is a congregation without walls or borders. We meet our 3,000 members through mail, phone, email, and social media. We like to say that our congregation is “always in beta,” meaning that we encourage experimentation and creativity and have a deep well of grace when things do not work as intended. Our staff members and learning fellows are not geographically bound. CLF membership includes over 1,800 incarcerated Unitarian Universalists, whose interaction with our congregation is constricted by the dehumanizing systems of incarceration. For more information, visit clfuu.org, worship with us (clfuu.org/cometoworship), and/or join our Mighty Networks-based community network (community.clfuu.org).

Unitarian Universalism is a non-creedal religion focused on ethical living and spiritual deepening. We believe in the inherent worth and dignity of all people, and we lift up the interdependent web of all life. The Church of the Larger Fellowship seeks to connect Unitarian Universalists, deepen their spirituality, and support them in living with courage to act on our principles. We are passionate about our involvement in racial justice, the Black Lives Matter movement, prison ministry and the prison abolition movement.
