With a generous grant from the Eno River Fellowship Foundation, we are happy to announce the formation of an Artist In Residence Program at ERUUF for 2024-2025. Triangle-area artists from across disciplines (visual, performance, music, and literary arts) are invited to apply as our inaugural Artist-in-Residence.*

Artist in Residence Program at ERUUF
Message From the Lead Minister and Board Chair
Greetings All ~
Every so often, a congregation wishes to acknowledge the exceptional impact of a called minister whose service to the congregation has been particularly noteworthy. The Unitarian Universalist Association and the UU Ministers Association have proposed guidelines for granting the title Minister Emerit to honor such ministers, accomplished through a vote of the congregation. Rev. Dr. Arvid Straube was named Minister Emeritus by ERUUF members in 2014 in recognition of his significant service during his years as Lead Minister.
It’s Time to Take ERUUF’s Pulse!
The Pulse Survey is an anonymous survey conducted annually by the Committee on the Evaluation of Ministry (CEM) for the Board of Trustees. Its purpose is to learn from you -- members and friends -- about how we’re doing as a congregation.
The survey closes April 14th. It takes 15 minutes to complete. Take the survey here.
The feedback you gave us last year brought about numerous changes, which have been implemented by Rev. Jacqueline and ERUUF’s ministerial team, among them:
