Is the CLF for me?

The Church of the Larger Fellowship (CLF) welcomes all who seek spiritual growth, liberation, and belonging — wherever you are in the world or on your faith journey. We invite you to explore our values and see if they resonate with your spirit and hopes for community.

Radical Welcome

We affirm that every person has inherent worth and dignity. You belong here — just as you are, wherever you are in your spiritual journey or location.

Spiritual Deepening

We create opportunities for reflection, worship, and learning that nurture your spirit and connect you to something larger than yourself.

Justice and Liberation

We live our faith through action, working toward collective liberation and building a world grounded in equity, compassion, and love.

Global Community

Our sacred circle spans the globe, connecting Unitarian Universalists and spiritual seekers across borders, time zones, and life experiences in shared covenant.

Ways to engage with the CLF

Worthy Now Prison Ministry Network in black and yellow font with grey and white chalice

The Worthy Now Prison Ministry is a life-saving, life-affirming ministry of the Church of the Larger Fellowship.

We believe that every person is worthy of love and justice just as they are. We believe that no one is disposable. This includes our beloved who are among the nearly 2 million people incarcerated in the United States. The membership of CLF includes a growing number of incarcerated Unitarian Universalists from around the United States. This ministry works to overcome the isolation and dehumanization of our prison system, and this is labor-intensive. We are glad to have the support of thousands of people around the world for this ministry.

Become a Pen Pal

One of the cornerstones of our Worthy Now Prison Ministry is the Pen Pal program, in which incarcerated UUs are matched with free-world pen pals. This program builds relationships, transforms lives, and helps overcome isolation. Sadly, we always have a waiting list of incarcerated members whose pen pals have not yet signed up. Might one be you?

Become a State Ally

Our State Allies invest more time and energy in helping us keep our addresses current. Prison systems often move folks with no notice or forwarding address. Keeping on top of these moves ensures we can provide uninterrupted ministry to our incarcerated beloved.
