Welcome to our home
Our building is our home and we treat it as such.
We offer our venue for rent to outside groups provided the organization and event are aligned with the Kelowna Unitarians values, mission and charitable purpose.
Our values, mission & purpose
Our values are expressed through eight principles: — The inherent worth and dignity of every person; — Justice, equity, and compassion in human relations; — Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations; — A free and responsible search for truth and meaning; — The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large; — The goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all; — Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part. — Individual and communal action that accountably dismantles racism and systemic barriers to full inclusion in ourselves and our institutions.
Our mission is to foster a diverse and caring spiritual community celebrating individual freedom of religious thought, sharing a commitment to social justice and to the reverence and enrichment of all life.
Our purpose is to foster the use of reason and critical enquiry in a search for a personal philosophy of life, and to provide collective exploration in this and humanitarian principles. We acknowledge the right of freedom of judgment in all matters of belief and we are united in the common purpose of giving active service to our fellows for the greater good of all humanity.
