The Path To Membership
The Path to Membership Class is generally held each month, usually on a weekday evening, but ocassionally on a Saturday morning. Its purpose is to acquaint you with our church and the faith tradition of Unitarian Universalism before you consider a commitment to West Shore.
We ask that those who are considering membership to attend one of these evenings, or make an appointment to meet with one of the ministers before signing the Membership Book. The Membership Book is available for signing at these monthly classes, or by asking a minister or the Membership Coordinator Kathleen Heck. The date for the next "Path" class is:

The Meaning and Purpose Class
Twice a year the Ministers offera special two-session class open only to new members who have joined in the past year. The class focuses on West Shore's mission, and asks the participants to consider what "meaning and purpose" in life means to them. This class will next be held on two Thursday nights in January and May. Sign up at the church office.
