Hi - my husband and I (both mid-20s) just learned about the UU Church. He grew up Catholic but left the church several years before we met, and I grew up atheist. We are both interested in starting our own spiritual journeys, but are also seeking community in general.

If anyone here is a member of the UU Church of Greater Lansing - what has your experience been like? Is there active discussion of the big topics listed on the UUA website - “The existence of a Higher Power, Life and Death, Sacred Texts, Prayer and Spiritual Practices”? Are there other young adults <35 there?

I also noticed some dialogue (and seemingly some controversy) regarding the upcoming vote on an amendment to Article II. Is that relevant to what goes on in the churches themselves, or is it more of an organizational issue that doesn’t affect day-to-day?

Thanks in advance! We appreciate any insight you can provide.
