You might ask "Why do they go to church?" Here's what some of the members and friends of Davies Memorial Unitarian Universalist Church say.:

In the UU Church I have found a group that is willing to discuss the matter of the communion wine while breaking coffee cake and drinking green tea. A do-it-yourself religion. I find atheists and polytheists discussing the merits of the Ten Commandments without the trump card: "Believe as I do or You will go to Hell!" Instead of rote recitation of creeds, we are encouraged to build our own religions. There is room for everyone as long as each one of us is willing to make room for everyone else. - Bill G.

When my first child was about 4 years old, I realized that I wanted to raise her in a community of people who cared about the values by which they lived their lives, but would not ask me to pledge adherence to any dogma I could not honestly believe. A UU community met that need and had the unexpected bonus of introducing me to many interesting, caring people. - Virginia C.

When I think of Davies words like -- home, community, friendship, love come to mind. I've been attending services at Davies for over 5 years, both of my daughters were welcomed into the church community by Rev. Don. The religious education (Sunday school) program at Davies is a wonderful way for my children (and me) to learn about our faith, the traditions of other religious communities, and it reinforces the values that I try to instill at home. Individual participation is a wonderful way to get involved with the church, but DMUUC also needs a strong monetary commitment from its members to insure a future for liberal religion in Southern Maryland. I will be increasing my pledge to DMUUC this year, I hope you will too. - Rose K.
