Hi,Valerie!
I'm not exactly sure how this thread started out-just reading this for
the first time,but I gather that you are taking an informal poll of
Poly-minded UU people.Well,for myself,I am definitely extremely
interested in
pursuing this ideal .I'm into all the theories,and I'd like to actually
try them
out with the right person(s).Currently ,there is one other person in my
congregation who I have told of this way of relating and he is very
curious
about it.Anyway,I definitely consider myself poly ,by
nature(non-practicing
still).And,am seriously considering sometime in the spring finding a rep
of
UUPA to travel for a service for my congregation. I belong to the UUCRT
:UU
Congregation at Rock Tavern,Washingtonville,New York.
WellWishes,
Pasha

Hello!
I rarely respond on this list-serve, but read the subject lines and this
one is very interesting to me. ?I attend the Rainier
Unitarian-Universalist Congregation in Seattle, WA. ?There are at least
two other polywogs who attend. ?RUUC is a very diverse and "out"
congregation in general, but we revealed ourselves to each other even
more when we became a Welcoming Congregation last year. ?
Will the results of this informal poll be compiled and made available?
Thanks!
Angelee

So far, 64 congregations have been named, in 31 states, including the
Church of the larger Fellowship and the Church of the Younger
Fellowship. Several people listed more than one congregation, and
several congregations were reported by more than one
respondent. California, Virginia and Massachusetts are the most
mentioned states, but several of the VA congregations were listed by
one respondent.
This is very important information, I think. The last I heard there
were 300 plus subscribers to this list . . . so how many
congregations have not been reported? If 63 UU congregations have
poly people in the pews JUST FROM THIS LIST, denominational leaders
must sit up and take notice that we are here and we are not going
away. And I know there are poly UU's who are not on this list. I
know there are poly folk associated with the congregations in Medford
and Salem, MA.
Any more responses?

I really get the impression that there's a lot more of us out here
than we might think.
For every one of us that's online, I'm willing to believe that there's
one or two more who aren't.

More likely 10 or 20. The vast majority of polyfolk I know have never
been
on an e-list or poly support group.

"RUUC is a very diverse and out congregation in general"?
We are members of the Universalist Unitarian Church of East Liberty,
Clark Lake, Michigan.? Our congregation is more in the old universalist
standard.? Small. rural and agricultural.? Although we are a "Welcoming
Congregation" we like flying under the radar and don't want to test that
water by being out.? Maybe once we find another couple of our own.?
