UUCFM History

Since 1955, we have played a pivotal role in community advocating for such issues as

  • Human rights and racial justice
  • Fighting alcoholism and drug abuse
  • Literacy
  • Mental health
  • Voting rights
  • Women’s reproductive rights
  • Death with dignity

In 1992, the first Planned Parenthood Clinic in Lee County was established, led by members of our congregation.   We participated with a local coalition and won a major law suit in 1998 against the Lee County School Board for trying to force an unconstitutional Christian Bible Curriculum into the school system.  Then in 2005, UUCFM won recognition as a Welcoming Congregation for its overt acceptance and active inclusion of sexual minorities.  Equal marriage started January 6, 2015, at Lee County Clerk’s Office and at UUCFM same-sex wedding day on January 11, 2015, where eleven couples were gloriously married.

Our legacy of justice and inclusion continues today.  Be a part of it.  Make a difference.

Testimonials From Members - Why I Became A Unitarian Universalist

Peggy Eisenberg
“This is a church that is a welcoming congregation, active in social justice issues, and works to combat racism, sexism, and classism. Is it really a church? ... My husband, Steve, and I came to UUCFM a couple years ago. We have been here ever since. I realized that I was a UU without knowing it! I have finally found my spiritual home.”
