Hey UU Sub,
I think there is an answer out there but have not had to deal with this before. This is not a new issue for me but I continue, increasingly, to feel that I'm going to be moving on from my current UU church in the near future. It has never been a friendly place (even when we first attended 15+ years ago then then-minister used to talk about how ignoring "new" people at coffee hour - sometimes for years - was self-sabotaging for a congregation) and there is a more promising UU church in driving distance, and also a very liberal Episcopal church that I feel much more affinity with (though I'm not religious) - they actually DO things for others instead of arguing and talking about what they might do, later. Life is short, I'm moving on.
I cannot pledge much, every, but I do pledge and make my payments out of responsibility. What do we do when we move churches or denominations? I have never heard this addressed. I know that my present UU church is totally cash strapped (and was before the pandemic for systemic reasons) but if I make a formal change I'd like to support the new place.
Thanks!
