    The purpose of the group, as stated in our ByLaws, is
    to "help people achieve their richest fulfillment
    through growth in understanding, freedom and responsibility;
    to search for truth wherever it may be found;
    and, in the spirit of humanity, undivided by nation, race, creed or gender,
    to provide more effective opportunities to help nourish
    the highest hopes, values and ideas of all people. 
    This is the spirit which unifies all those of diverse beliefs
    in the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of San Juan Island."
