At the June 14, 2026 Annual Meeting, the MLUC congregation approved this Right Relations Covenant.

With Love at the center of all we do, this Right Relations Covenant calls us to be accountable to each other and binds our beloved community. We, as a beloved community, choose to covenant together, believing that keeping these promises to one another will foster our growth as individuals and as a congregation and enable us to live out our mission within and outside our walls.

  • Together we covenant to create and sustain a physical, spiritual, and emotional sanctuary;
  • Together we covenant to realize fully the value inherent in each person in this beloved community, an understanding that powers our
    collective strength;
  • Together we covenant to hold one another in mutual respect, approaching each other with moral courage and radical hospitality;
  • Together we covenant to live in a spirit of generosity, service, and support with our friends and those we do not yet know;
  • Together we covenant to honor one another with grace, compassion, and humility, recognizing that the gifts of our community grow from the world within each of us;
  • Together we covenant to acknowledge our disagreements, to speak honestly, to listen deeply, and to commit to the work of building right relations.
