Which membership is best for YOU?
The benefits for each membership type are the same. Regular, contributing
and sustaining are all individual memberships offering the opportunity
for whatever monetary commitment one chooses. A congregational membership
allows one congregation-appointed representative as a UUMN member which
designation may be transferred as circumstances merit. Many of our
congregational members also have individual membership(s) for their music
staff. If this is the case the designate member is often the Chair
of the Music Committee or equivalent. The congregational membership
is a way of publicly affirming the congregation's overall commitment to
their music program and music ministry in the wider community. The fee
is "suggested" based on the size of the operating budget. It is not necessary
to have both an individual and a congregational membership.
